单选题Passage 1Every day 25 million U.S. children ride school buses. The safety record for these buses is much better than for passenger cars; but nevertheless, about 10 children are killed each year riding on large school buses, and nearly four times that number are killed outside buses in the loading zones. By and large, however, the nation's school children are transported to and from school safety.Even though the number of school bus casualties is not large, the safety of children is always of intense public concern. While everyone wants to see children transported safely, people are divided about what needs to be done particularly whether seat belts should be mandatory.Proponents of seat belts on school buses-many of them parents and medical organizations argue that seat belts are necessary not only to reduce fatality and injury, but also to teach children lessons about the importance of using them routinely in any moving vehicle. A side benefit, they point out, is those seats belts help keep children in their seats, away from the bus driver.Opponents of seat belt installation suggest that children are already well protected by the school buses that adhere to the Nation Highway Traffic Safety Administrations(NHTSA) safety requirements set in 1977. They also believe that many children won't wear seat belts anyway and that may damage the belts or use them as weapons to hurt other children.A new Research Council report on school bus safety suggests that there are alternate safety devices and procedures that may be more effective and less expensive.

They're children who look after themselves while their parents work. And their bad conditions have become a social problem.Lyne Brown was once the headmaster of an elementary school. She said, "A lot of kids had chains around their necks with keys attached.! was constantly telling them to put them inside shirts. There were so many keys, it never came to my mind what they meant. ",slowly, she learned they were house keys.Lyne learned of the impact working couples and single parents were having on their children. She found that Fear is the biggest problem faced by children at home alone. Many had nightmares and were worried about their own safety.The most common way latchkey children deal with their fears is by hiding. It might be in a shower stall, under a bed, in a closet. The second is TV. They'll often play it at high volume. It's hard to get statistics (情况，材料) on latchkey children. Most parents are slow to admit they leave their children alone.41.

共用题干第一篇About eight million school-age children are home alone after school.These are the hours when the number of violent crimes peaks and when youths are most likely to experiment with alcohol,tobacco,and drugs.Many older children take care of themselves after school for an hour or two until a parent comes home,and research suggests that some of these children are more at risk of poor grades and risky behaviors.Studies have been done to find out what helps to reduce these kinds of risky behaviors among youths.One study of Chicago neighborhoods showed that after-school programs resulted in less violence even in poor neighborhoods.After-school programs can help to reduce crime and violence because they offer activities to children and youths during their out-of-school time.In addition to helping youths make use of after-school hours,after-school programs provide teens with opportunities to develop caring relationships with adults.Studies have found that high-quality relationships with parents and other adults,as well as good use of time,are very important for healthy development in youth.After-school programs can also be used for teens who hang out at friends' houses and play basketball when a parent or other responsible adult is at home.The programs can also be helpful for formal after-school activities,including"drop-in"programs that are provided by organizations. Despite the benefits of after-school programs,there are many reasons why some parents do not use them. Programs may be too expensive,of poor quality,or hard to join.Some older cililciren and young teens may refuse to attend programs that seem like they are just child care.F'arents may ieei uncertain about how much freedom is proper for children and youths who are beyond the traditional child care years.However,research supports the effectiveness of these programs in protecting middle school and high school youths from risk and harm.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A:The grades of those children who are home alone after school are more likely to suffer.B:Parents want to give their children as much as possible freedom.C:The after-school programs help the students to make use of the time after school.D:The after-school programs are effective in protecting middle school and high school youths from risk and harm.

While everyone wants to see children transported safely, people are divided about what needs to be done particularly whether seat belts should be mandatory.Proponents of seat belts on school buses-many of them parents and medical organizations argue that seat belts are necessary not only to reduce fatality and injury, but also to teach children lessons about the importance of using them routinely in any moving vehicle. A side benefit, they point out, is those seats belts help keep children in their seats, away from the bus driver.Opponents of seat belt installation suggest that children are already well protected by the school buses that adhere to the Nation Highway Traffic Safety Administrations(NHTSA) safety requirements set in 1977. They also believe that many children won't wear seat belts anyway and that may damage the belts or use them as weapons to hurt other children.A new Research Council report on school bus safety suggests that there are alternate safety devices and procedures that may be more effective and less expensive. For example, the study committee suggested that raising seat backs four inches may have the same safety effectiveness as seat belts.The report sponsored by the Department of Transportation at the request of Congress, reviews seat belts extensively while taking a broader look at safety in and around school buses.According to the passage, the school bus is________.Athe bus offered by the schoolBthe bus that has no difference from the public busCthe bus that is driven by the studentsDthe bus that is not safe
