TEXT I


                                         Robotic Cars


The year is 2020, and it’s 7;45 on a rainy Monday morning, and you are in your car on your way to work. You turn right, and you turn left. A few minutes later, you stop at a traffic light. When the light turns green and there are no other cars in the intersection, you continue on your way. Ten minutes later you get to work and stop reading the morning paper. Then, you get out of your car and you say, “Thank you!". Your car replies, “You’re welcome!’’. This possibie future may sound unreai, but in fact many car companies are aiready testing robotic cars, or driverless cars, on the roads today, although the cars don't speak very much yet.

In the 1980s, Germany and the United States tested the first driverless cars, and by 2020 companies such as Volvo, GM, Nissan and BMW plan to seil driverless cars. Driverless cars are not really ‘driverless - the drivers are computers that use radar, Computer maps and other modern technology. They offer many advantages. Perhaps the most important of these is fewer deaths caused by road accidents. For example, in 1968 more than 53.000 people lost their lives in car accidents in the USA. This number has fallen to less than 33.000 but it’s still a high number. In addition, people will spend iess time stuck in traffic jams and there will be no need for people to have a driving license. One of the major disadvantages of this new technology, however, is the cost. It’s not free. U$5.000 to U$10.000 is added to the price of the new car. Nevertheless, at some time in your life, you will probably be sitting in a robotic, ;driverless car on your way to work or school. The future is almost here. Are you ready for it?

  • GABARITO; LETRA C

    One of the major disadvantages of this new technology, however, is the cost.

    Concluímos, então, que os Driverless cars não serão mais baratos.

  • O texto aponta várias vantagens dos carros autônomos. A questão pede que o candidato marque a sentença que não representa uma vantagem dos carros autônomos.
    A) Os carros robóticos (autônomos) provavelmente reduzirão o número de acidentes. L. 9 -10- (Perhaps the most important of these is fewer deaths caused by road accidents.)Talvez a vantagem  mais importante seja menos mortes causadas por acidentes nas rodovias.(correta)
    B) As pessoas não perdem tanto tempo em engarrafamentos.L. 11-12 (In addition, people will spend less time stuck in traffic jams) Além disso, as pessoas passarão menos tempo presas em engarrafamentos. (correta)
    C) Os carros autônomos serão mais baratos que os carros comuns.L. 12-13 (One of the major disadvantages of this new technology, however, is the cost. It's not free. U$5.000 to U$10.000 is added to the price of the new car.) Uma das principais desvantagens dessa nova tecnologia, no entanto, é o custo. Não é grátis De US $ 5.000 a US $ 10.000 são adicionados ao preço do novo carro.(errada)
    D)  Não serão necessárias carteiras de motorista.L. 12  [...] and there will be no need for people to have a driving license..[...]e não haverá necessidade das pessoas terem carteira de motorista.(correta)
    E) Será possível relaxar em um carro robótico.L. 13 - 14(Nevertheless, at some time in your life, you will probably be sitting in a robotic, driverless car on your way to work or school.) No entanto, em algum momento de sua vida, você provavelmente estará sentado em um carro autônomo, robótico, a caminho do trabalho ou da escola. (correta)
    Conforme vimos no texto, os carros autônomos não serão mais baratos. Portanto, a alternativa C não representa uma vantagem  desse tipo de carro.
