The Hong Kong Medical Association（HKMA）Council discussed in a meeting the problem of using mobile phones while driving. The following prints were recorded.

1.There is now objective scientific information, most recently from Toronto, showing that the

risk of bringing about traffic accidents rises fourfold if a mobile phone is used while driving.

2. Hands-off models of mobile phones are no safer than hands-on models.

3. Switzerland, Israel, Brazil and some states in Australia now have laws banning the use of

telephones while driving motor vehicles. The Council also recorded that mobile phones serve a special socio-economic function in Hong Kong, such as operation of goods vans and taxis, and forbidding their use by law immediately may disrupt（擾亂）important aspects of our socio-economic life. We doubt whether the low figure of 1--3 traffic accidents per year locally occurring while a motorist was using a mobile phone, as offered by the Secretary for Economic Services Mr. Stetpen Pritt, was systematically collected.

The HKMA Council strongly advised that:

1. Drivers of all motor vehicles in Hong Kong should stop their vehicles in safe places when

they wish to use their mobile phones.

2. The government should seriously consider adding an additional charge of driving without

due care and heavier punishments on drivers connecting with traffic accidents while using mobile phones.

3. Statistics on mobile-phone-induced traffic accidents should be collected systematically

without delay. If necessary, the police may be empowered to cross-check with phone companies whether the driver' s phone was in use at the time of a traffic accident.

1．What is the main topic of the passage?

       A．The importance of objective scientific information.

       B．Using mobile phones while driving.

       C．A special socio-economic function.

       D．Forbidding the use of mobile phones.

2．The low figure of traffic accidents caused by using mobile phones in Hong Kong suggests that ______.

       A．few people there used mobile phones while driving

       B．the drivers there stopped their vehicles to use mobile phones

       C．the drivers there were afraid of the heavy punishments

       D．the people interested did not collect the information regularly

3．It is recommended that the Hong Kong government should ___________.

       A．forbid the use of mobile phones while driving

       B．take due care to stop drivers from using mobile phones while driving

       C．punish more strictly drivers connecting with accidents due to using mobile phones

       D．solve the problem of using mobile phones while driving immediately

4．The word "cross-check" in the last paragraph most probably means ____________.

       A．questioning somebody carefully

       B．considering a different source

       C．providing more cross-references

       D．joining an accident insurance company
