Automatic Auto:a Car That Drives Itself
1. In September a driverless Audi TTSwill speedto the top of Colorado's Pikes Peakat justunder100 kilometers per hour—that'sright, no driver. It is an early steptowardarobo-carthatcan driveitself(定語從句), perhapsbetter than you can.
1、9月份，一輛無人駕駛的(driverless)奧迪TTS汽車將以略低于(under)每小時(shí)100公里的速度駛向科羅拉多州的派克峰(Pikes Peak)頂部——對(duì)!沒有駕駛者!這是朝著機(jī)器人汽車(a robo-car)邁出的較早的一步，它或許比人操作得還好一些。
2. The Pikes Peak runis a jointproject of the Stanford University Dynamic Design Laboratory, theElectronicsResearchLab (ERL 電子研究實(shí)驗(yàn)室) forthe Volkswagen Group(大眾集團(tuán))(whichowns Audi), and software-makerOracleCorp. The rough,part-gravel roadto the top of Pikes Peak is therouteofthe annual International Hill Climbrally,an annual auto and motorcycle race.The TTS runwilldemonstrate whetherthe car can takecurvesas fast asa humandriver—without driving off a cliff.
2、“派克峰試駕”(the PikesPeak run本句的主語)是斯坦福大學(xué)動(dòng)態(tài)設(shè)計(jì)實(shí)驗(yàn)室、大眾集團(tuán)(奧迪品牌擁有者)電子研究實(shí)驗(yàn)室，以及軟件開發(fā)商甲骨文公司(Oracle Corp)的聯(lián)合項(xiàng)目(a joint project)。這條通往派克峰頂峰的艱險(xiǎn)的、半沙礫公路(the rough,part-gravel road)也是每年一度的(annual adj.)國際汽車及摩托車登山拉力賽(rally)的路線(route)。這款TTS汽車的駕駛將證明(demonstrate vt.) 是否它具備同人工駕駛“一樣快”的跑彎路的能力——并且不會(huì)掉入懸崖(cliff)。(翻譯作了小改動(dòng)。)
3. The car's sporty hatchbackhousestwocomputersin its trunk,bothusingOracle's Java Real-Time Systemto runalgorithmsthat(引導(dǎo)定語從句) keep the car on the road andat thelimits of itshandlingabilityon thevaryingsurfaces andconditions.
3、在這款跑車型掀背式轎車的行李箱中儲(chǔ)藏著(house vt.)兩臺(tái)計(jì)算機(jī)，兩臺(tái)計(jì)算機(jī)(both)都使用了Oracle(甲骨文公司)的Java實(shí)時(shí)系統(tǒng)運(yùn)行算法(to run algorithms)，通過算法來保證在不斷變化的路況下汽車在道路上行駛并且在其操縱能力的范圍之內(nèi)(at thelimits of its handling ability)。
4. The carwill be guided bya differential GPS systemthat(引導(dǎo)定語從句)corrects errorsarisingin global positioning satellite signalsasthey travel through the ionosphereand troposphere. It is exactenoughtokeep the carwithin1.5centimeters of its course. A similar technology isin the pilot stagefor nationaldeploymentby the U. S.Department of Transportation's Federal Highway Administration, althoughthe crewis usingan off-the-shelf radio transmittertobroadcast exact locationdatatobe used forthe corrections.
4、這款汽車將由一個(gè)差分GPS系統(tǒng)(a differential GPS system)來導(dǎo)航(本句采用了將來時(shí)被動(dòng)語態(tài))，該系統(tǒng)能夠糾正全球定位衛(wèi)星信號(hào)在穿越電離層和對(duì)流層時(shí)(as引導(dǎo)的時(shí)間狀語從句)出現(xiàn)的'錯(cuò)誤(arrising 動(dòng)名詞詞組作定語，修飾errors)。它精確到足以(enough to do sht.)保持汽車在其路線1.5厘米的誤差范圍內(nèi)行駛。雖然(although)工作人員(the crew ，為單數(shù)形式)己在使用(現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)態(tài))現(xiàn)成的(off-the-shelf)無線電發(fā)射器來傳輸精確的位置數(shù)據(jù)用于更正路線(不定式to broadcast exact locationdata作is using…的目的狀語;不定式to be used for the corrections作前一個(gè)不定式目的狀語)，但是，類似的技術(shù)(a similar technology)目前還處于由美國交通部下屬的聯(lián)邦公路管理局(Federal Highway Administration)部署的全國試點(diǎn)階段(the pilot stage )，(并未允許實(shí)際上路)。(deployment n. 調(diào)試，部署)
5. There are several componentsto what the auto industry callsautonomous driving. First, the carmustbe able todistinguishthings in its environment,such asroads, buildings,intersectionsand other cars. Second,itneeds to be able toavoidcollisions. Beyond these basics,anintelligent vehiclewould obey the rules of the roadwhilegettingto the destinationasquickly and safely aspossible.The Pikes Peak runwill test the Audi's abilityto meet this goal.
5、汽車行業(yè)(the auto industry)所謂的自動(dòng)駕駛包括幾個(gè)部分。首先，汽車必須能夠區(qū)分(distinguish)它周圍環(huán)境的物體，例如(such as)道路、建筑物、十字路口和其他車輛。其次，它要能避免碰撞。除了這些基本要求外，智能汽車(an intelligent vehicle)必須盡可能快且安全地(as quicklyand safely aspossible)前往目的地(the destination)的過程中遵守交通規(guī)則(obey the rules)。“派克峰試駕”將測試奧迪車是否有能力實(shí)現(xiàn)這一目標(biāo)(meet vt. 滿足;不定式作定語)。
6. Some ofthese capabilitieshave already hit the street,and othershave been demonstrated in tests.For example,in EuropeVolkswagen Passats can park themselves, andcollision warningis availablein high-end modelsfrommost majormanufacturers,includingToyota, Mercedes and Volvo.
6、其中一部分功能已經(jīng)在街道上實(shí)現(xiàn)，其他的功能也已經(jīng)在測試中得到 證實(shí)。例如(for example)，歐洲的大眾帕薩特能夠自己泊車(Volkswagen 大眾汽車);而且主要汽車制造商，包括(including)豐田、奔馳和沃爾沃等，他們生產(chǎn)的高端(high-end adj.)車型也已經(jīng)能實(shí)現(xiàn)碰撞警告(collision warning)。(直譯：碰撞警告已用于來自主要汽車制造商，包括豐田、奔馳和沃爾沃在內(nèi)的高端車型。)
7.The University of Oxfordis working onan autonomous navigationsystemthat(引導(dǎo)定語從句)takesininformationfrom onboardsensors, radar, cameras, lasers and Internet servers. Further, GMenvisions a systemcalledthe Mobility Internetthat(引導(dǎo)定語從句，修飾a system)connects intelligent carstoeach otherand toremote serversina vast, moving peer-to-peer networkthat(引導(dǎo)定語從句，修飾remote servers)wouldletthemtravelefficientlyandin sync. Someday, autonomousdrivingcouldoffer theultimatein comfort,lettingthe driverchaton the phone, email or watch TV on the way to work.Howmuch control you want toturn overto the car(主語)maydepend onyour age andwhere you are going,according toMarcial Hernandez,senior engineer at ERL. "On vacation with the family the driver may wanttoturn aroundandtalk tothe kids. Peopleintheir 30smay want todrive toSan Francisco, stopin front ofthebar, and tell the carto go parkitself."
7、英國牛津大學(xué)正在開發(fā)一種能從車載(onboard)傳感器、雷達(dá)、攝像頭、激光束 和互聯(lián)網(wǎng)服務(wù)器中獲取(take in)信息的自主導(dǎo)航系統(tǒng)(anautonomous navigation system)。而且(further adj. 更遠(yuǎn)的;adv.進(jìn)一步地)通用汽車(GM-General Motors)設(shè)想(envision vt.)了一個(gè)稱為移動(dòng)互聯(lián)網(wǎng)的系統(tǒng)(called 過去分詞作定語，修飾a system)，該系統(tǒng)將智能汽車彼此連接(connet to)起來，并連接(and to)到一個(gè)龐大的、 移動(dòng)的、點(diǎn)對(duì)點(diǎn)網(wǎng)絡(luò)的遠(yuǎn)程服務(wù)器上(remote servers)，這樣可以使汽車同步并且有效地(efficiently and in sync)行駛。(let sb. do sth. 使役動(dòng)詞let(讓)后的不定式“不帶to”)在未來的某一天，自動(dòng)駕駛可以提供極致的(ultimate adj.)舒適感，駕駛者可以在上班途中(on the way to work)在電話里聊天(chat on the phone)、發(fā)送郵件或者看電視。ERL的髙級(jí)工程師(senior engineer)馬歇爾·赫爾南德斯表示(according to 根據(jù)，按照;據(jù)…所說)，你想把多少控制權(quán)交給汽車取決于(depend on)你的年齡和要去的地點(diǎn)(where you are going)。“在與家人度假時(shí)，駕駛者可能想轉(zhuǎn)過頭來和孩子說說話。30多歲的人可能想開車去舊金山，把車停在酒吧前并讓汽車自己去停車場。”
8. Says Hernandez,"Taking the fun out of thedrivingis not our main goal—we'd like tohelp people enjoydriving. But theyshould make the decisioniftheywant to driveor (they) press the autopilot button. "
8、赫爾南德斯說：“感受脫離駕駛的樂趣(taking the fun out of the driving)并不是我們的主要目的——我們想幫助人們享受駕駛(help sb. do sth. 使役動(dòng)詞help后的不定式不帶to;enjoy doing sth.享受做某事)。但是他們需要做個(gè)決定：是自己駕駛還是按下自動(dòng)駕駛儀的按鈕(theautopilot button)。”
