In 1909 an English newspaper offered £ 1000 to the first man to fly across the English Channel in an aeroplane Today modern jets cross it in minutes But at that time it still seemed a good distance The race to win the money soon became a race between two men Both were very colorful
One was Louis Bleriot He owned a factory in France that made motor car lamps He was already well known as a pilot because he had had accidents several times Some people laughed at him One man said He may not be the first to fly across the Channel but he will certainly be the first to die in an accident But Bleriot was really a good and brave pilot He also had many good ideas about aeroplane design
The other man was Hubert Latham He was half French and half English He took up flying when his doctors told him he had only a year to live Oh well he said if I'm going to die soon I think I shall have a dangerous and interesting life now
Latham was the first to try the flight across the Channel Ten kilometres from the French coast his plane had some trouble It fell down into the water and began to sink under the water A boat reached Latham just in time He was sitting calmly on the wing and was coolly lighting a cigarette Bleriot took off six days later He flew into some very bad weather and very low cloud He somehow got to the English side and landed in a farmer's field When he did so a customs (海关) officer rushed up to his plane Planes have changed since then but customs officers have not Have you anything to declare The officer demanded

You jump into a car tell it where you want to go then sit back and let a computer take control It seems a dream in the future It isn't
In many ways such driverless cars are already with us There is partial automation in many cars such as intelligent braking lane departure warning and automatic parking The systems are there
cars can pretty much drive themselves No one noticed the introduction of cruise control We've got collision avoidance and we'll soon have automatic lane change
Improving this technology should make the roads safer Machines are much better at following rules than humans Driveway signs advise drivers to slow down to avoid
jams They are often ignored by drivers But it won't happen
a computer Driverless cars could also choose the best route to avoid traffic jams
Fewer jams will mean
stopstart driving Maintaining smooth and constant speeds will improve fuel efficiency Computers could also be programmed to take the greenest route rather than the fastest one Under computer control cars could also travel much closer together
They can effectively slipstream one another and use less fuel to move themselves forward They can even form multicar trains going
high speeds However with driverless cars on the roads there will be potential trust issues between people and machines We could therefore see guard rails back on the sides
of pavements This would be a backwards step
