have a vast impact on the look, feel, and function of the cities, and it could thoroughly change the crowded urban spaces.

“We aren’t going to need parking, definitely not in the places we have it now,” Alain L. Komhauser, a researcher at Princeton University, told Patrick Sisson at Curbed. “Having parking close to where people spend time is going to be a thing of the past. If I’m at the office, it doesn’t need to be there.” The extreme case of totally empty car parks and city streets with no stationary (静止的) vehicles would probably require people to fully let go of personal car ownership.

“Car sharing is already reducing the need for parking spaces,” Carlo Ratti told Curbed. “Self-driving vehicles will strengthen this trend and have a dramatic effect on urban life, because they will blur (使模糊) the distinction between private and public modes of transportation,” he added. “‘Your’car could give you a lift to work in the morning and then, rather than sitting useless in a parking lot, give a lift to someone else in your neighbourhood,social-media community, or city.”

In that case, we needn’t park our cars. They’ll park by themselves, so we would see a huge increase in the width of sidewalks, bike lanes, and space for any other kind of transportation.

In all likelihood, we won’t see these kinds of changes happening very soon. But it’s exciting to think of the benefits this technology could bring.

32. Why do the author mention the often-told advantages of self-driving cars? A. To draw a conclusion.

By promoting car-sharing with self-driving vehicles. D. By allowing only self-driving vehicles to run on roads. 34. What will happen if we needn’t park our cars? A. More people will walk to work.
