The mountains on fire,” she screamed, “and Brians up there!”Laytons family

7、owned a dozen rental cabins（小屋） on Shields Mountain, and Laytons friend and fellow rental-cabin owner, Brian McGee, age 56, was up there trying to put the fire out by himself. Layton, 32, hit the gas. He lived on the mountain too.Layton turned around and headed for a dirt road. He made it about half

8、way up the steep, winding path before his front-wheel-drive car gave up. He called McGee, who drove down in his pickup so they could fight the fire together.They headed first to Laytons rental cabins. “I wanted to make sure our guests were gone. They were,” says Layton. At that point, he had a choic

9、e: try to save his cabins or rescue people renting other cabins nearby. “On the mountain, you dont have many locals. Theyre mostly tourists who dont know their way around,” he says.Over the next two hours, the two friends drove through the smoky mountain, knocking on doors and leading panicked peopl

10、e to safety. “I know that mountain so well,” Layton says, “I could drive and know exactly where I am just by time traveled.” Thanks to their brave and immediate action, the two helped 14 people out of the danger.Fourteen people died that night in Sevier County. But the fire didnt take away a single

11、life on Shields Mountain.

14、re happyturns outyoure more likely to be happytoo. If your friends are overweight, that tooups the chancesyoull gain weight. Those effects have been shown in studies. And now researchers have identified another seemingly contagious quality: exercise.The researchers analyzed the running activity of m

15、ore than a million people worldwide who used an exercise tracking device（装置） for five years. And they usedweather patternsas a way to randomly examine different parts of that global network.Cities have different weather patterns, Sinan Aral, a computational social scientist at MIT says, this experim

16、ent allowed them to ask: Does a rainy day in New York affect running in San Diego? “If the weather in New York causes changes in the running behavior in San Diego, it can really only be happening through the influences of the friends who live between New York and San Diego.”And that is exactly what

17、he and his colleague saw: that the behavior of one citys runners could indeed affect the behavior of runners in another socially connected city. Women tended to be influenced more by the female runners in their networks. And less active runners tended to influencemoreactive runners to run more, but

18、not so much the other way around. Still, this could be valuable for health professionals. “We have to start thinking about consumers and citizens as networked consumers and citizens. Where they are influenced by and influence their social network in very strong ways, that will change the way a parti

19、cular intervention（干涉） succeeds or fails.”In other wordsif your prescription is more exercise? The doctors might want to write a prescription for your friends and family, too.28.

22、 running behavior.D. Healthy behavior can spread like illness. DMany Americans think of driverless cars as a futuristic technology that will revolutionize travel in cities and along state highways. But recent experiments are proving that autonomous vehicles also have the potential to improve the qua

23、lity of life for millions of Americans underserved by traditional modes of transportation, such as the elderly and disabled, so long as lawmakers make smart policies that pave the way for innovation. A retirement community in San Jose, Calif. , which has been transformed by a small fleet of driverle

24、ss taxis, shows the potential of self-driving cars to transform peoples lives. Built by a tech start-up called Voyage, the modified Ford Fusions are currently limited to a two-mile road, but residents are already having the benefits of these autonomous vehicles, which allow them to participate in so

25、cial activities they would otherwise be unable to enjoy simply because they could not get to them. When the trial run finally expands to 15 miles of road, these residentswhose average age is 76will also have a convenient and reliable new way to appointments. As these cars continue to serve residents

26、 there, it is easy to understand why California is moving to simplify regulations for the industry. In Michigan, forward-thinking policies have the potential to unlock other hidden benefits of autonomous vehicles, especially for those with physical disabilities. The Michigan Disability Rights Coalit

27、ion has strongly advocated for the development of this technology, saying that it could give people with disabilities greater opportunities in the workforce and enable them to lead more fulfilling, independent lives. Many recognize that autonomous vehicles will be the future of transportation, but i

28、t is too often overlooked that this future cannot arrive fast enough for millions of Americans who are forced to depend on others for day-to-day travel. The policymakers should follow the lead of places like California and Michigan, and pass rules and regulations to unlock these hidden benefits of d
