It took firemen almost an hour to cut through the wreckage (殘骸) of the car. By the time they reached the driver，Wong，he had died. Seconds before the crash happened, the traffic on the road was flowing smoothly，and Wong was an experienced driver in a sturdy car. What could have caused the tragedy? Alcohol. After Wong had drunk four cans of beer, his physical and mental reactions had slowed. He had a false feeling of confidence. Then he lost control, hitting a fire hydrant and a lamp post.

In almost every other developed country, Wong might have thought twice about getting behind the wheel and setting off in his car after drinking beer. His passengers might have refused to join him. Would you fly with a drunk pilot? Laws and public campaigns against drink-driving in many countries have changed people's lifestyles and saved thousands of lives. Drink-drivers are regarded as potential killers. In some countries, police on roadsides pull over motorists and check whether they have been drinking or not.

In 1995, about 7 % of drivers killed in road accidents in Hong Kong were drink-driving. But this does not tell us the full extent of the problem because it does not show the number of motorists and pedestrians (行人) killed by drink?? drivers who survived their crash. In reality then, the number of people killed as a result of drink-driving must be much higher. But in 1995, only five people were prosecuted (起訴) for being drunk and incapable of controlling a vehicle.

  Driving while talking on a hand-held mobile phone has long been considered a danger. But even drivers who use hands free devices are a nuisance – because they are slowing everyone else down, according to a study.
David Strayer, a psychology professor in Utah University’s traffic lab, conducted a study involving 36 university students driving on motorways. Each used a hands free phone for half the trip but not for the other half. The students were told to obey posted speed limits and use turn signals but the rest of the driving decisions were up to them . What Strayer found is that when the drivers were distracted（使分心）by a phone conversation , they made fewer lane（車(chē)道） changes, drove slower and took longer to get where they were going. Fellow researcher Professor Peter Martin, who teaches civil and environmental engineering at Utat University, said,“Ordinarily a slower driver should be safer ， but that’s not the case when people are talking on a cell phone.”
In general , drivers who used mobile phones while driving took three percent longer to drive along the same high-density route than drivers who didn’t. When stuck behind a dawdling(磨蹭的) driver , it took them between 25 and 50 seconds longer to switch to an open lane to overtake. Those delays can add up when you consider studies that suggest as many as 10 percent of US drivers are using a cell phone at any one time. And delays in traffic streams of very small amounts can grow into massively when drivers are crossing a  highway.” Our next step is to use computer models to determine just how much those delays are costing drivers in time and in extra fuel costs,” Martrin said.
63. What does the underlined word in the first paragraph mean?
A. A person who is a volunteer.         B. A person who breaks the traffic law
C. A person who is annoyed by others.   D. A person who causes trouble
64. Which of the following is TRUE , according to Martin?
A. The more slowly a person drove, the safer he was.
B. Measures should be taken to stop using mobile phones.
C. Drivers using hand-held phones had less effect on traffic than those using hands free phones
D. Driving while using mobile phones could cost drivers time and money.
65. The passage is mainly about      .
A. traffic conditions in rush hours 
B. the use of mobile phones in the USA
C. using hands free devices behind the wheel
D. a comparison between hand-held phones and hands free ones

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2012-2013學(xué)年浙江省溫州中學(xué)高二上學(xué)期期末考試英語(yǔ)試卷（帶解析） 題型：閱讀理解

Long bus rides are like television shows. They have a beginning, a middle, and an end with commercials (商業(yè)廣告) thrown in every three or four minutes. The commercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window. “Buy Super Clean Toothpaste.” “Drink Good Wet Root Beer.” “Fill up with Pacific Gas. “Only when you have fallen asleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, can you get separated from the unending cry of “You Need It! Buy It Now!”
As for the ride itself, the beginning of it is comfortable and somewhat exciting, even if you’ve traveled that way before. Usually some things are keeping changing out of the windows — various houses, crop fields, attractive bridges, … and sometimes even a small accident. Your bus driver may have a unique style of driving and it’s fun trying experience it the first hour or so. If the driver is particularly reckless (魯莽的) or daring, the ride can be as thrilling (驚心動(dòng)魄的) as an adventurous story. Will the driver pass the truck in time? Will the driver move into the right or the left hand lane? After a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But you’ve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.
The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know the riding will soon be over and there’s a kind of expectation and excitement with that. The seat, of course, has become harder for the hours having passed. By now you may sit with your legs crossed, or with your hands in your lap, or with your hands on the arms, or even with your hands crossed behind your head. That is to say that the end comes just at no more ways to sit.
【小題1】According to the passage, what do the passengers usually see when they are on a long bus trip?

A．Buses on the road.B．Films on television.
C．Advertisements on the billboards.D．Gas stations.
【小題2】What is the purpose of this passage?
A．To give the writer’s opinion about long bus trips.
B．To persuade you to take some long bus riding.
C．To explain how bus trips and television shows differ.
D．To describe the billboards along the road.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2013-2014學(xué)年江西省協(xié)作體高三第一次聯(lián)考英語(yǔ)試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

It is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams, the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life, but manners on the road are becoming horrible. Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel. It is all right to have a tiger in a cage, but to have one in the driver's seat is another matter.

Road politeness is not only good manners, but good sense. It takes the most cool－headed drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude driving. On the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fighting. A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and becomes so necessary in modern traffic conditions. But such behaviors of politeness are by no means enough. Many drivers nowadays don't even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.

However, misplaced politeness can also be dangerous. Typical examples are the driver who waves to a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may not be able to stop in time. The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they want to.

An experienced driver, whose manners are faultless, told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in traffic stream without causing total blockages that give rise to unpleasant feelings．Unfortunately, modern drivers can’t even learn to drive．Years ago, experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more give-and-take from all road users．It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.

1. According to the passage, where is it that the nicest men would become short-tempered?

A. Beside the wheel.???? B. Before the wheel.

C. In a cage.??????????? D. In the driver’s seat.

2.Which of the following is proper when drivers are forced to face rude driving?

A. Fighting and quarreling.

B. Showing great patience.

C. Calling back.

D. Beating back

3.What can be dangerous from the passage?

A. Road politeness.?? B. Road sense.

C. Inappropriate politeness.??? D. Traffic jams.

4.The following statements are right EXCEPT that________.

A. Modern drivers are good at driving

B. Blockages can cause unpleasant feelings.

C. Modern drivers can’t master the roadmanship.

D. All road users should understand the meaning of “give-and-take”.

5.Which section of a magazine is the passage most probably taken from?

A. Health and life.?????? B. Health and society.

C. Human and society.??? D. Human and environment.
