The measure also faced opposition from many Republicans, who said the state should not be involved in policing people“s personal choices.

5、“I don“t smoke. I don“t encourage my children to,“ said Republican Assemblyman Donald Wagner. “But they“re adults, and it“s our job to treat our citizens as adults.“ But supporters of the bill say raising the age to 21 moves legally purchased tobacco that much farther from younger kids. “This will s

Their car was damaged as it went over a huge pothole in the middle of the street in their hometown of Jackson, Mississippi. “I decided I was going to do something about the pothole problem in my city,“ Chokwe

21、 says. His solution: an app(手机应用) that warns drivers when there is a pothole ahead. Chokwe developed the app with his friends Rodriguez Ratliff and Emmanuel Brooks. “When the app detects a potheole, it is highlighted (突出显示) in red,“ Chokwe says. “And if you get close to the pothole, your phone will

22、warn you.“ Drivers can also use the app to report any potholes they encounter, and to look for other routes they can take to avoid roads that have them. The app relies on current available information about the streets of Jackson. “It works by using the city“s 311 call system, so it uses information

23、 already stored in a database,“ Chokwe says. (79) Through the call system, citizens dial 3-1-1 to report non-emergency problems which include potholes. Chokwe and his friends determined that focusing on the 10 busiest streets in Jackson would give them a large enough sample size to test the prototyp
