A motorist was prepared to meet his maker when he found himself trapped in his Cadillac for 14 hours on a hot, summer day.
Cleveland resident Peter Pyros was backing his car out of the driveway in August when suddenly the battery died. Because the electric buttons used to activate the door wouldn’t work, he became a prisoner in his own car. reported the Detroit Free Press.
He tried shouting for help and pounding on the window, hoping it would break, but to no avail. After more than half a day stuck in the vehicle and barely able to breathe, a curious neighbour discovered Pyros before contacting police. They charged Pyros’ battery long enough so he could let himself out of the car.
What Pyros was unaware of is that his car was equipped with a manual door release handle. The only problem was he didn’t know it existed and the owner’s manual was not inside the vehicle. Pyros may be alive but he’s not happy. He’s suing the maker of his car for not making the emergency set easier to locate.
Questions 3 and 4 are based on the news report you have just heard.
3. What is the news report mainly about?
4. Why didn’t Pyros use the manual door release handle?
选项
A、An accident caused by battery explosion.
B、A man trapped in his own car.
C、A car maker facing a severe penalty.
D、A motorcycle crashing into a car.
