Question

【題目】閱讀理解
Last year in the UK at least 45 people died and 900 more were injured (受傷的) in car accidents where drivers were using their mobile phones．Yet many people continue to use them while driving even though it’s dangerous.
Research has shown that it is difficult to concentrate on (專注于) driving and talking at the same time．It can even be more dangerous than driving after drinking too much. A recent study found that when drivers were talking on their mobile phones，their stopping times were 30 percent slower than when they had drunk too much—and nearly 50 percent slower than when they were driving normally. It also found that drivers talking on mobile phones were less able to control their cars than drunk drivers.
And talking isn’t even the most serious problem, but texting is. Unbelievably, another recent study reported that 22％ of adults admitted (承認(rèn)) they had sent a text message while driving at least once in the past month. An average (平均的) text message takes 90 seconds to write and send. That means for one and a half minutes a driver is looking at their phone’s screen and not at the road. The arrival of new smart phones such as the iPhone will only make things worse as they will allow users to do more things than ever before．
Using a mobile phone while driving puts others’ lives at risk. No matter how well we drive，if another driver is not careful，we are put in danger by their actions. Such drivers are selfish，careless and should have their driving licences (駕照) cancelled (撤銷).
There is no doubt that mobile phones can be fun and are useful，especially when you’re in trouble．But there is no need to use them while driving. Just wait until you stop or you will probably get into trouble of your own.

【解析】短文主要講述司機(jī)在開車時(shí)使用手機(jī)通話、發(fā)短語帶來的危險(xiǎn)。
⑴細(xì)節(jié)理解。代替前面提到的mobile phones。故選：B
⑵推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段“…nearly 50 percent slower than when they were driving normally”打電話的比正常的慢50%，由此可以算出。故選：D
⑶綜合理解。從第二段第一句和第二句“It can even be more dangerous than driving after drinking too much．”可知talking on phone比drinking更危險(xiǎn)；從第一段第三句“And talking isn’t even the most serious problem, texting is.”可知，texting最危險(xiǎn)。故選：A
⑷細(xì)節(jié)理解。從第三段最后一句“The arrival of new smart phones …as they will allow users to do more things than ever before．”可知新型手機(jī)功能多，因此可以推測出它更有趣，結(jié)果分散司機(jī)的注意力，造成事故。故選：C
⑸主旨大意。本文中心意思就是開車時(shí)使用手機(jī)太危險(xiǎn)。實(shí)際上，從最后一段“But there is no need to use them while driving．”也可知作者的觀點(diǎn)。故選：D
