The game between humans and their smart devices is amusing and complex. It is shaped by economics and psychology and the cultures we live in. Somewhere in the mix of those forces there may be a way for a wiser use of technology.

　　If there is such a way, it should involve more than just an awareness of the shortcomings of our machines. After all, we have lived with them for thousands of years. They have probably been fooling us for just as long.

　　【语篇解读】　作者在文中讲述了Ceely的GPS出现错误而引发的事故，提到了Rick Stevenson的观点，作者对他的观点提出了不同的意见，从而揭示了人类与科技之间的关系。

　　36．What did Paula Ceely think was the cause of her accident?

　　A．She was not familiar with the road.

　　B．It was dark and raining heavily then.

　　C．The railway workers failed to give the signal.

　　D．Her GPS device didn't tell her about the crossing.

　　答案　D　[细节理解题。根据第二段中的Ceely was relying on her GPS，but it made no mention of the crossing.可知D项正确。 ]

　　37.The phrase “near miss” (Paragraph 2) can best be replaced by________.

　　A．close hitB．heavy loss

　　C．narrow escapeD．big mistake

　　答案　C　[词义猜测题。根据第一段的描述可知，Ceely没在车上，所以有She watched the train drag her car almost a kilometre down the railway tracks.因此Ceely当时是“幸运逃脱”的，故C项正确。]
