これはヒアリング訓練と5つの単語の理解が目的なので、和訳する必要ないんですが、そうすると、切り貼りだけなんでするんや、ということになるので、やはりtranscriptだけでも和訳せねば、、、、


果たして和訳合っているいるかな???


なお、毎回、下記の"transcript"って、何て訳したらいいのだろうかと思っていましたが、”朗読の筆記録”=>”朗読の文章”かな?

Stopped in the nick of time!

This road safety system uses lasers to detect potential hazards. If the driver doesn't brake, the car does.

Now a new Swiss project is looking to take things further by reading drivers' minds.

Researchers are testing its viability by monitoring brainwaves to see if they can predict the driver's next move.

The hope is technology could intervene to prevent accidents.

ぎりぎりの所で止まった!

この交通安全システムはレーザーを利用して潜在する危険を検知する。 もしドライバーがブレーキをかけなければ、車がブレーキをかける。

さて、新しいスイスのプロジェクトはドライバーの心を読んでさらに先に行くことを期待している。

研究者達はドライバーの次の動きを予測できるかを知るために脳波をモニターしてその実現性をテストしている。

テクノロジーが事故を防ぐためになんとか味方してくれるだろうと、望みをかけている。


in the nick of time: just in time
