You may have experienced the frustration of receiving a parking fine or finding your car towed away (拖走)after leaving it parked for a couple of minutes.
But now a high tech car sticker could help motorists avoid such a situation by allowing a traffic warden(管理员)to get in touch with them.Car owners can buy the sticker and place it inside their car’s windscreen,having set it up with vital information,such as their phone number.The slim design will i nclude a sensor that will send a text message warning a driver about a coming fine when touched by a traffic warden.The message will ask them to move their car immediately.The driver could then type a reply for the warden us ing their smartphone,which will appear on the sticker’s screen.They may choose to write something along the lines of“back in two minutes”in a bid to avoid a fine.Frankfurt-based IT consultant,Daniel Kalliontzis,came up with the idea and is raising funds on Indiegogo to put his 54 sticker into production.
The smart sticker system will rely on the good will of traffic wardens and critically,a German law.The law states:“An officer has to choose the most e fficient and inexpensive way for the car owner to remove the vehicle.”It could be cheaper for the authorities to contact the driver than to tow his car.
At the time of writing,Mr Kalliontzis has raised just over 3,000 of his 50,000 goal on Indiegogo.If he manages to raise the money,the stickers will be shipped in June 2015.But it appears that car owners using the smart system could get some unnecessary warning messages,because anyone could touch the smart sticker.
1.The first paragraph is intended to ________.
A. highlight an awkward situation
B. complain about a parking fine
C. introduce the topic of the passage
D. remind motorists of the parking risk
2.What may probably contribute to the application of the TowStop sticker in Germany?
A. The sticker’s low cost.
B. The mass production.
C. The goodwill of motorists.
D. The law of the country.
3.What can be concluded from the last paragraph about the TowStop Sticker?
A. It takes time and efforts to put it to use.
B. Only traffic wardens can touch the sticker.
C. All car owners will use the sticker in 2015.
D. Kalliontzis is experienced in raising money.
4.What’s the right order of the following statements according to the passage?
①A message is sent by the sensor.
②The sticker is put inside a car’s windscreen.
③A traffic warden touches the smart sticker.
④The sticker is set up with vital information.
