문제 B 듣기

A

1 The reading passage claims that smart cars will be able to choose the best routes to arrive at their destinations quickly, but the speaker claims that traffic is going to increase as the technology in cars improves.
2 The author declares that it will take less time to travel and that traffic will always be moving, yet the professor states that there will actually be longer traffic jams than before.
3 In contrast to the statement in the reading claiming that it will be cheap to maintain smart cars, the professor asserts that the manufacturing process involved in creating replacement parts ensures that maintenance costs will be high.
4 Whereas the reading passage asserts that owners will be able to repair their cars cheaply because the problems requiring fixing will be minor, the lecturer declares that the replacement parts themselves are going to cost an incredible amount of money.

1 The reading passage and lecture both discuss aspects of smart cars.
2 However, the professor states that smart cars will not be as great as people expect.
3 She gives two reasons why she believes they will not improve on current vehicles.
4 First, the professor asserts that smart cars will not resemble scenes in movies where they move rapidly through cities.
5 She states that, as automobile technology has improved, it has always created more traffic, not less.
6 This contradicts the reading passage, which affirms that smart cars will avoid traffic jams by controlling the routes they drive along.
7 Also, the lecture claims that future traffic jams involving smart cars will be bigger than they currently are.
8 Next, the lecturer mentions the maintenance costs of smart cars.
9 She declares that most smart car parts are custommade, so they must be specially manufactured, making them incredibly expensive.
10 The reading, however, states that smart cars will tell their owners when they have minor problems, allowing them to be fixed rather cheaply.
11 However, the professor states that, while labor fees will not be expensive, any repair work involving spare parts will be.
12 In conclusion, the professor has a dim view of the future of smart cars, which directly contrasts the opinion of the author of the reading passage, who believes smart cars will be very beneficial.
