An Article
1 Read the article. Then tick ( ) the sentences T (true), F (false) or DS (the text doesn’t say). (10 points)

Imagine asking the pavement for directions and getting a

reply. This sounds like a scene from a fantasy film, but now
it is really possible. A company in Spain is developing an
amazing new technology – the iPavement. This invention
helps tourists visiting big cities.
The iPavement is the invention of the Vía Inteligente
company. How does the iPavement work? It uses special
materials with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity. The
company is also creating special apps. With this new
technology, instead of going to tourist information centres,
visitors can get information about places around them.
Some apps can help people find shops, restaurants, banks
and other services. Some apps give information about
underground, train, tram and bus routes, so visitors can
explore the city easily. Vía Inteligente also wants to help
local businesses. So, when people pass a restaurant, an
app sends a message about the menu and gives incentives
to people to go and eat there. The technology can collect
information about people, too. There are sensors to count
the number of people on the pavement in different areas.
Municipalities can use this type of information to plan new
streets and services for residents and visitors.
What are Vía Inteligente’s plans for the future? The company
wants to put iPavement in streets and town squares around
the world and to create more fun and visitor-friendly cities.
