7、aptain in Montgomery County,Maryland.He said,“It was an inexperienced,immature(不成熟的) driver who felt that he was invincible(不可战胜的),driving at night with a carload of kids.He was distracted,he was going too fast,and it ended up causing one death and some upsetting experiences and tragedy for the rest

8、 of the community.” Jim Jennings from the Allstate Insurance Company said,“The number one cause of distracted-driving accidents is the mobile phone.Talking on the phone or reaching for it is like drinking four beers and driving.If youre texting while driving,you are twenty-three times more likely to

9、 get into an accident than somebody who isnt.” Reaching for a cell phone when its going off,youre nine times more likely to get into an accident than normally driving.The insurance industry recently held a safety event near Washington for teen drivers.

10、y avoided large,inflatable dolls thrown in front of the car to represent children.He also avoided orange cones representing the edge of the road.Then,as part of the test,he started texting.He hit several cones and at least one doll. Debbie Pickford from the Allstate Insurance Company said,“Teens are

11、 especially at risk from distracted drivingand not just because they lack experience on the roads.”What we know from research on teen brain development is that teens dont really have fully developed brains until they are twenty-five years old.You put those two things together and you get a much,much

12、 higher risk. 1.We can learn from the second paragraph that . A.drivers who resulted in nearly 4,000 deaths are teenagers B.over 30,000 victims have died from traffic crashes in 2008 C.it was at night that Ryan Didone met with a car accident D.Ryan Didones careless driving caused the car accident 答案

13、 C 解析细节理解题。根据第二段第三句可知,将近 4000 人死亡,其中包括 1520岁的驾驶人员,由此可 知,在将近 4000 的死亡人数中,并不都是青少年,故排除 A 项;根据第二段第二句可知,在 2008年,30 000多名受害者源于交通事故,这个数字并不是死亡人数,故排除 B 项;根据第二段第五句可知,他是在 夜间驾驶时遭遇的交通事故,故选 C 项;而根据第二段第一句可知,Ryan Didone不是作为驾驶员,而是 作为乘客遭遇的车祸,故排除 D 项。 2.According to the passage, is the most likely to lead to a traffic

14、 accident while you are driving. A.reaching for a cell phone B.texting on the mobile phone C.talking on the mobile phone D.bringing along a cell phone 答案 B 解析根据第三段第一句可知,分神是导致交通事故的第一位的原因,而分神的首要起因是手机,打电话 和用手够手机以及发短信都是原因,但该段最后一句提到开车时发短信的事故率是不发短信的 23 倍。 故 B 项正确。 3.The passage is probably followed by a c

15、oncluding paragraph about . A.much higher risks B.measures to be taken C.experiences on the roads D.teen brain development 答案 B 解析该文通篇都在讲交通事故发生的原因和后果,那么接下来就该讲如何避免交通事故,也就是采取 什么措施来避免交通事故。故选 B 项。 4.Of all the following,which is the best title for the passage? A.Car Crashesthe Top Killer B.Drunken Drivi

16、ngDangerous Enough! C.Distracted DrivingLets Avoid! D.Tips on Driving 答案 C 解析该文主要讲的是分神对驾驶的危害,所以 C项最佳。 B Traffic jams and cities,it seems,go hand in hand.Everyone complains about being stuck in traffic,but,like the weather,no one seems to do anything about it.In particular,traffic engineers,transport

17、ation planners,and public officials responsible for transportation systems in large cities are frequently criticized for failing to solve traffic jams. But are traffic jams a sign of failure?Long queues at restaurants or theater box offices are seen as signs of success.Should transportation systems

18、be viewed any differently?I think we should recognize that traffic jams are an unpreventable by-product(副产品) of successful cities,and view the “traffic problem” in a different light. Cities exist because they improve social communication and economic trade. The traffic jam occurs where there are lot

19、s of people but limited space.Culturally and economically successful cities have the worst traffic problems,while decaying cities dont have much traffic.New York and Los Angeles are Americas most crowded cities.But if you want access to major brokerage houses(经纪行),you will find them easier to reach

20、in crowded New York than in any other large cities.And if your firm needs access to post-production film editors or satellite-guidance engineers,you will reach them more quickly through the crowded freeways of LA than through less crowded roads elsewhere. Despite the traffic jam,a larger amount and

21、wider variety of social communication and economic trade can be made better in large,crowded cities than elsewhere.Seen in this light,the traffic jam is an unfortunate result of prosperity(繁荣),not a cause of economic decline and urban decay.So while we can consider the traffic jam as increasing cost

22、s on the areas of big cities,the costs of inaccessibility in uncrowded places are almost certainly greater. There is no doubt that the traffic jam brings the terrible economic and environmental damage in places like Bangkok,Jakarta,and Lagos.But mobility(流动性) is far higher and traffic jam levels are

23、 far lower here in the US,even in our most crowded cities.Thats why,for now,we dont see people and capital streaming out of San Francisco and Chicago,heading for cities like El Centro and McAllen. 5.We can conclude from the first paragraph that . A.the traffic jam and weather are the two factors pre

24、venting the development of big cities B.the traffic jam seems to be very difficult to deal with C.if traffic engineers try their best,the traffic jam can be solved D.public officials are always criticized for misusing their power 答案 B 解析推理判断题。根据第一段中的“like the weather,no one seems to do anything abou

25、t it”可知,人们对 交通堵塞现象无能为力,说明交通堵塞问题很棘手,难以解决。 6.By saying “decaying”(in Para.4),the author probably means . A.less powerful and influential B.developing C.rich and successful D.strong and healthy 答案 A 解析词义猜测题。由该词所在句子中的 while(而,却)表对比可知,decaying 的意思应与上文中的 successful相反,故选 A项。 7.According to this passage,whi

26、ch statement about New York and Los Angeles is true? A.The traffic jam in the two cities has been worsened. B.New York and Los Angeles are the most successful cities in the US. C.It is easier to reach major brokerage houses in the two cities than in other cities. D.Despite the traffic jam in LA,youl

27、l find a satellite-guidance engineer more quickly there. 答案 D 解析细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“And if your firm needs access to post-production film editors or satellite-guidance engineers,you will reach them more quickly through the crowded freeways of LA than through less crowded roads elsewhere.”可知,答案选 D 项,其他选项

28、均与文中事实不符。 8.According to the passage,whats the authors opinion on the traffic jam? A.In cities,the traffic jam is unavoidable. B.The traffic jam is both a sign of failure and a sign of success. C.The traffic jam is the result of successful cities. D.For a successful city,the traffic jam is not unpre

29、ventable. 答案 C 解析观点态度题。根据第二段最后一句和第五段可知,作者认为交通拥挤是城市成功的一个不可避 免的副产品,应该从另一个不同的角度来看待交通拥挤现象,故选 C 项。文中作者并没有提到交通堵 塞是一种失败,B项不正确。 四、语篇填空 阅读下面短文,在空白处填入 1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 导学号 12194014 Today is my birthday and Im so excited about it.In the morning I 1.
