Question

Safety in the highway is not totally out of our hands. Here are four ways we can do to protect our?selves when we travel.

10 People in small cars are injured more often and more severely than people travelling in large cars. Factories of small cars are strengthening their products' safety, which helps. But the mix of large cars and small cars on the road is the main reason of the problem.

Being thrown into glass and metal car parts, or be?ing thrown from the car can really hurt or even kill you.

11   The safety belt's main purpose is to pull you back if your car has a sudden crash with another Vehicle or object, or if it rolls over. A belt can reduce the chance of deadly injury by 45 % and the chance of serious injury by 50%.

Air bags are important. More than half of all new cars sold have air bags. Air bags provide protection in frontal crashes—the type of crash that kills the most drivers―when they are also wearing safety belts. Most people are demanding air bags in the cars they buy.

12   Effective as they are, they can't take the place of safety belts.

Drunk driving crashes are less likely to happen if you don't drink. 13 Many people have realized that drunk driving can lead to death and injury, prison time and other results. There are movements to strengthen penalties(處罰)for drinking and driving.

A.    How to drive safely?

B.    You are safer in a large car.

C.    How to protect ourselves in the highway?

D.    Air bags are not installed in all cars.

E.    That's why safety belts should be worn.

F.    Drunk driving is the most serious problem.

G.    But the protection provided by air bags is limited in side or rear crashes.

Answer 1

C 根據(jù)下文的"Safety in the highway is not totally out of our hands."可推知，本文的主題是講如何在高速公路上確保自身安全，故選C項(xiàng)。

 B 根據(jù)下文的"People in small cars are injured more often and more severely than people travelling in large cars.，，可知， 在大車(chē)上安全系數(shù)要髙些，故選B項(xiàng)。

E 根據(jù)上文的"Being thrown into glass and metal car parts, or being thrown from the car can really hurt or even kill you."可知，此處上下句表示邏輯上的因果關(guān)系，表示結(jié)論，故選E項(xiàng)。

G 承接上文的"Air bags are important."，并根據(jù)下文的"Effective as they are, they can't take the place of safety belts."可推知，安全氣囊的作用還是有限的，故選G項(xiàng)。

F 根據(jù)下文的"Many people have realized that drunk driv?ing can lead to death and injury, prison time and other results."可知，酒后駕車(chē)后果很?chē)?yán)重，故選F項(xiàng)。
