共用题干第一篇A recent study,published in last week's Journal of American Medical Association,offers a picture of how risky it is to get a lift from a teenage driver. Indeed,a 16-year-old driver with three or more passengers is three times as likely to have a fatal accident as a teenager driving alone,by contrast,the risk of death for drivers between 30 and 59 decreases with. each additional passenger.The author also found that the death rates for teenage drivers increased dramatically after 10 pm,and especially after midnight.With passengers in the car,the driver was even more likely to die in a late-night accident.Robert Foss,a scientist at the University of North Carolina Highway safety Research Center, says the higher death rates for teenage drivers,have less to do with"really stupid behavior" than with just a lack of driving experience."The basic issue,"he says,"is that adults who are responsible for issuing licenses fail to recognize how complex and skilled a task driving is."Both he and the author of the study believe that the way to mitigate(使······缓解)the problem is to have states institute so-called graduated licensing systems,in which getting a license is a multistage process.A graduated license requires that a teenager first prove himself capable of driving in the presence of an adult,followed by a period of driving with passenger restrictions,before graduating to full driving privileges.Graduate licensing systems have reduced teenage driver crashes,according to recent studies. About half of the states now have some sort of graduated licensing system in place,but only 10 of those states have restrictions on passengers. California is the strictest,with a novice(新手)driver prohibited from carrying any passenger under 20(without the presence of an adult over 25)for the first six months.A graduated license is issued to a driver who________.A:is at least a middle school graduateB:has learned driving at a driving schoolC:gains full driving rights step by stepD:has a driving experience long enough

共用题干Motoring Technology1.2 million road deaths worldwide occur each year,plus a further 50 million injuries.To reduce car crash rate,much research now is focused on safety and new fuels-though some electric vehicle and biofuel research aims at going faster.Travelling at speed has always been dangerous.One advanced area of research in motoring safety is the use of digital in-car assistants.They can ensure you don't miss important road signs or fall asleep .Most crashes result from human and not mechanical faults.Some safety developments aim to improve your vision.Radar can spot obstacles in fog,while other technology"sees through"big vehicles blocking your view.And improvements to seat belts , pedal(脚踏)controls and tyres are making driving smoot- her and safer. The colour of a car has been found to be linked with safety,as have,less surpris- ingly,size and shape.But whatever is in the fuel tank,you don't want a thief in the driving seat and there have been many innovations(创新).Satellite tracking and remote communications can also come into play if you crash,automatically calling for help.Accidents cause many traffic jams,but there are more subtle interplays between vehicles that can cause jams even on a clear but busy road.Such jams can be analyzed using statistical tools.Robotic drivers could be programmed to make traffic flow smoothly and will perhaps one day be everyone's personal chauffeur(司机),but their latest efforts suggest that won't be soon. Which of the following statements is true of robotic drivers?A: It will take some time before robotic drivers are available.B: Robotic drivers are not allowed to drive on busy roads.C: Robotic drivers can never replace human drivers.D: Robotic drivers are too expensive to use.
