| The motor vehicle has killed and disabled more people in its brief history than any bomb or weapon ever invented.Much of the blood on the street flows mainly from uncivil behavior of drivers who refuse to respect the legal and moral rights of others. So the killing on the road may be regarded as a social problem. In fact,the enemies of society on wheels are rather harmless people-just ordinary people acting carelessly,you might say. But it is a general truth both of law and common morality that carelessness is no excuse when one's actions could bring death or damage to others. A minority of killers go even beyond carelessness to total negligence (疏忽). Researchers have estimated that as many as 80 percent of all automobile accidents can be attributed to the psychological condition of the driver. Emotional upsets can distort (扭曲 ) drivers' reactions, slow their judgment, and blind them to dangers that might otherwise be clear. The experts warn that it is necessary for every driver to make a conscious effort to keep one's emotion under control. Yet the irresponsibility that accounts for much of the problem is not confined (限制) to drivers. Street walkers regularly break traffic rules. They are at fault in most vehicle walker accidents;and many cyclist even believe that they are not subject to the basic rules of road. Significant legal advances have been made towards safer driving in the past few years. Safety standards for vehicle have been raised both at the point of manufacture and through periodic road-worthiness inspections. In addition,speed limits have been lowered. Due to these measures,the accident rate has decreased. But the accident experts still worry because there has been little or no improvement in the way drivers behave. The only real and lasting solution,say the experts,is to persuade people that driving is a skilled task requiring constant care and concentration. Those who fail to do all these things present a threat to those with whom they share the road. |
| 1. What is the author's main purpose in writing the passage? |
| A. To show that motor vehicle is a very dangerous invention. B. To improve understanding between careless drivers and walkers. C. To discuss traffic problems and propose possible solutions. D. To remind drivers of the importance of safe driving. |
| 2. Why does the author mention the psychological condition of the driver in Paragraph Three? |
| A. To give an example of the various reasons for road accidents. B. To show how important it is for drivers to be emotionally healthy. C. To show some of the inaccurate estimations by researchers. D. To illustrate the hidden tensions in the course of driving. |
| 3. Which is not mentioned as being responsible for the road accidents? |
| A. Careless bicycle-riders. B. Mindless people walking in the street. C. Irresponsible drivers. D. Irresponsible manufactures of automobiles. |
| 4. Which of the following best shows the author's attitude towards the future without traffic accident problems? |
| A. Doubtful yet still longing for. B. Happy and rather confident. C. Surprised and very pleased. D. Disappointed and deeply worried. |

| CHILDREN are the future. In 2060,today's children will be parents,grandparents and possibly even great-grandparents. Those still alive in Valdosta,Georgia in 2060 will be able to share a part of their youth with the youth of the day, when the city's time capsule (时间胶囊) is dug up in Drexel Park. Students from the Valdosta City School System have had a hand in collecting information that will be placed in the time capsule. Kindergarten to the second graders studied transportation (交通). Third through fifth graders looked at the technology of today. Sixth through eighth focused on (关注) music and entertainment. Ninth through twelfth graders went to work on fashion and food. Students were asked to make a scrapbook (剪贴簿) page recording their specific (特定的) area. The high school pages are a wonder of color and design. Many students detai1(详述) the food of the moment. Susanna Sin,16,includes the local. restaurants. " People will want to know what is here,and maybe it will be here then," said Sin,an 11th grader. Sin doubts that much will change in 50 years. Teenagers will still want to hang out with friends,and people will still be searching for the things that make them happy,she said. Education,however,would be completely different,she added. Technology will be even more important in the lives of students in 2060. Katherine Wakeley,16,said the scrapbook would give the people of 2060 a chance to see what was popular in 2010 , especially where fashion was concerned (相关的). " Skinny jeans and rips in your pants are the biggest things , "Wakeley said. The hugely popular Glee television show,as well as teenage superstars Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers,is also mentioned in the scrapbook. Though fashion,music and movies will change. Wakeley doesn't believe that Valdosta will ever let go of its greatest passion-football. "It'll still be here," Wakeley said. All the students said it would be interesting to see the capsule opened,but the teenage dreaming of escaping the hometown stopped them from saying they would be here to see it in 2060. But "it would be cool to see them open it," Greenhaw said. |
