Mobile phones should be banned from cars altogether, according to Dr. Hole, senior lecturer in psychology. Dr. Hole has emphasized the worrying combination of mobile phones and cars in his new book, The Psychology of Driving.
Mobile phones,
fatigue
, eyesight, drugs and age are among the issues considered by Dr. Hole as he examines the factors that influence on driving. The book explores the role of each of these elements in increasing the chances of an accident and was inspired by the author’s conversations with road safety experts across the country.
Myths about older people making worse drivers and claims about an improved reaction time among younger people are explored in the book. Questions about how drivers decide what to attend to while driving, the role of a driver’s expectations in determining what they see and how they respond to the road are among the areas covered in the book.
Satellite navigation systems and new designs aimed at transforming cars into a mobile office, are among the modern developments which he says now compete for driver’s attention behind the wheel.
Dr. Hole says: " We need to be very careful about how we go about handling modern technology in cars, because we are opening a Pandora’s Box. When anyone is driving there is a lot of information outside the car and if there is too much going on inside, then there is a danger of overloading the driver. " [br] The underlined word"fatigue" in the second paragraph means______.
选项
A、fattiness
B、tiredness
C、quarrel
D、alcohol
答案
B
解析
由题干中的in the second paragraph和fatigue定位于文章第二段第一句,fatigue含有“疲惫”之意,而选项B的tiredness正是“疲劳”的意思,故选B。
