苹果公司开发的语音助理功能，将很快被开发应用到汽车上。

　　Apple announced the move at its Worldwide Developer Conference. BMW, General Motors, Mercedes, Land Rover, Jaguar, Audi, Toyota, Chrysler, and Honda were the car manufacturers that Scott Forstall, who leads Apple’s iOS development, said would implement it. It’s likely to hit the first production models in the next 12 months.

　　苹果公司在全球开发商会议上宣布，将这一应用投放到汽车制品中。苹果公司网络操作系统部门负责人斯科特宣称，包括德国宝马，美国通用，德国奔驰，英国路虎，德国奥迪，英国捷豹，日本丰田在内的车系，有望在未来一年内装载应用语音助理功能。

　　Siri will link to cars via an iPhone, if the photo provided by Apple is any indication. Of course, a bigissue with using electronics in the car is distracted driving, but Apple says on its iOS 6 website that the system will be "eyes free." The phone’s screen won’t light up when a voice command is received, for example.

　　如果苹果网络操作系统提供是一个指示性信息，Siri将通过iPhone手机链接到汽车，从而通知车主。当然,由此产生的一个问题是，在汽车上使用电子产品会造成驾驶员注意力不集中,但苹果说在他们的iOS网络系统中,语音系统将是“不需要查看的。”例如，当收到语音命令的时候，手机屏幕不会亮起来。

　　An interesting addition to iOS 6 will be Apple’s mapping app -- the company plans to dispense with Google Maps. The data was collected last year, when Apple encountered some resistancefrom users who were concerned about being tracked via their iPhones. Apple said it wanted the data to build a map application by crowdsourcing the data, using the locations of WI-Fi hotspots.

　　iOS 6.0网络系统上添加了一个有趣的应用，即苹果地图程序——在此苹果公司打算撇开谷歌地图。地图数据是去年收集的。去年苹果公司的部分用户担心自己的位置被iphone跟踪，对苹果公司搜集数据的举动表示反对。苹果说方面表示说，它主要通过群众外包数据和wi-fi热点的位置收集信息，以建立一个地图应用程序。
