Engineering Ethics
Engineering ethics is attracting increasing interest in engineering universities throughout the nation. At Texas A&M University, evidence of this interest in professional ethics culminated in the creation of a new course in engineering ethics, as well as a project funded by the National Science Foundation to develop material for introducing ethical issues into required undergraduate engineering courses. A small group of faculty and administrators actively supported the growing effort at Texas A&M, yet this group must now expand to meet the needs of increasing numbers of students wishing to learn more about the value implications of their actions as professional engineers.
The increasing concern for the value dimension of engineering is, at 1east in part, a result of the attention that the media has given to cases such as the Challenger disaster, the Kansas City Hyatt-Regency Hotel walkways collapse, and the Exxon oil spill. As a response to this concern, a new discipline, engineering ethics, is emerging. This discipline will doubtless take its place alongside such well-established fields as medical ethics, business ethics, and legal ethics.
The problem presented by this development is that most engineering professors are not prepared to introduce literature in engineering ethics into their classrooms. They are most comfortable with quantitative concepts and often do not believe they are qualified to lead class discussions on ethics. Many engineering faculty members do not think that they have the time in an already overcrowded syllabus to introduce discussions on professional ethics, or the time in their own schedules to prepare the necessary material. Hopefully, the resources presented herein will be of assistance.
Engineering ethics is a compulsory subject in every institute of science and technology in the United States.
A.Right
B.Wrong
C.Not mentioned

The driver looked at her but made no answer, so she repeated the question. To her surprise, he then closed the door, on her arm, and drove off.
The woman, her arm stuck in the door, ran alongside the bus, shouting. Passengers said the driver stopped after almost a block only because they, too were shouting.
When the driver finally did stop and open the door, the woman jumped on the bus to get his bus number. Then he took off again and went another couple of blocks before other shouting passengers persuaded him to stop and let the woman off.
After the driver' s bossed at a tax-support governmental company(CTA) heard of the incident, they looked into it and set his punishment: a five-day suspension (停职) without pay. That struck me as rather light.
But Bill Baxa, the company' s public-relation man, "That' s a pretty serious punishment.
Five days off work is a serious punishment for dragging a woman alongside a bus by her arm? Baxa said, "Any time you take money away from someone, it is a terrible punishment. The driver make $14 an hour. Multiply(乘)that by 40 and you can see that he lost."
Yes, that come to $560, a good sum. But we know that people in the private company are fired for far less every day. If the people who run the bus company think that the loss of a week' s pay is more than enough, I offer them a sporting suggestion: Give me a bus. Then have their arms in the doorway of the bus, and I' 11 slam the door shut, shut the bus quickly and take them for a fast one block run.
And I'll pay $560 to anyone who is bold enough to try it. Any takers? Mr Baxa? Anyone?
I didn't think so.
The nurse half-entered one of the buses because ______.
A.the bus they wanted didn't stop
B.She wanted the driver to stop the bus
C.She wanted to get some information from the driver
D.She and her uncle couldn't wait any longer at the corner

In a market system individual economic units are free to interact among each other in the market place. It is possible to buy commodities from other economic units or sell commodities to them. In a market, transactions may take place via barter or money exchange. In a barter economy, real goods such as automobiles, shoes, and pizzas are traded against each other. Obviously, finding somebody who wants to trade my old car in exchange for a sailboat may not always be an easy task. Hence, the introduction of money as a medium of exchange eases transactions considerably. In the modern mar ket economy, goods and services are bought or sold for money.
An alternative to the market system is administrative control by some agency over all transactions. This agency will issue edicts or commands as to how much of each goods and service should be produced, exchanged, and consumed by each economic unit. Central planning may be one way of ad ministering such an economy. The central plan, drawn up by the government, Shows the amounts of each commodity produced by the various firms and allocated to different households for consumption. This is an example of complete planning of production, consumption, and exchange for the whole economy.
In a traditional society, production and consumption patterns are governed by tradition: parent age, religion, and custom fix every person' s place within the economic system. Transactions take place on the basis of tradition, too. People belonging to a certain group or caste may have an obligation to care for other persons, provide them with food and shelter, care for their health, and provide for their education. Clearly, in a system where every decision is made on the basis of tradition alone, progress may be difficult to achieve. A stagnant society may result.
What is the main purpose of the passage?
A.To outline contrasting types of economic systems.
B.To explain the science of economics.
C.To argue for the superiority of one economic system.
D.To compare barter and money-exchange markets.

According to Capoco, the surprising thing about a city bus is that about 60% of the framing cost is spent on the driver, There's a drive to automate buses and therefore to halve (把……减半) the operating costs. The pods (容器)that make up Capoco's driverless bus are designed to run on electricity but can be adapted to use biofuel, or hydrogen(氢)in a fuel cell, and can be updated to run on the cleanest fuel available.
The vehicle navigation technology combines satellite positioning and a calibration (校准)system using magnets positioned in the road every few metres. The bus navigates using the onboard route map and calibrates every ten meters to ensure that the onboard system knows exactly where the bus is on the route.
The system would start with exclusive lanes using the sensors to remain in the lane but in the longer term the aim is to run the vehicles with traffic around them. There are already a lot of automatic guided vehicles running inside factories alongside people and forklift trucks on the same basis.
The next step is to build a trial system with two vehicles to prove the basic functionality of the vehicles. Next year, a pilot system of up to 12 vehicles could be introduced in a closed environment like a campus or an airport to test the installation further.
With no driver costs, you can run vehicles as small as five meters long and carrying 24 people, and you can run them more frequently and on more routes. Transport in the future could be as easy as hopping on a horizontal lift. For the nervous, the lift is probably a more reassuring vision than a driverless bus but, if the mobilicity system is tested successfully, driverless buses could become an everyday sight in the cities of the future!
What is said about the city transport system in the UK?
A.It has a long history.
B.It's green and economical.
C.More than half of the city buses will be replaced.
D.Driverless bus is still not realized now.
