Nowadays motorcycling is fast becoming one of Americans’ most popular sports. However, there are several things about motorcycling that the average citizen dislikes. Motorcyclists frequently get dirty.
    In fact they are dirty. On the road there is little to protect them from mud, insects and bird droppings. For practical reasons, they are often dressed in old clothing, which looks much less respectable than the clothing of people who ride in cars. For the same reason, motorcyclists usually wear dark colors. Of course, the danger of motorcycling also helps account for many people’s low opinion of the sport. Its defenders, however, claim that careful cyclists are in less danger than it’s commonly believed. He must pay careful attention to his driving. From that point of view, a man on a motorcycle is safer than a man in a car.
16. Why do motorcyclists often dress in old and dark clothing?
17. What’s the average citizen’s opinion about motorcycling?
18. How can a motorcyclist be safer than a car driver?

选项 A、It is efficient.
B、It is exciting.
C、It is convenient.
D、It is dangerous.

答案 D

解析 短文开头处however后的内容是听力重点。听到the average citizen dislikes可知,普通市民对骑摩托车持负面态度。A、B、C均是正面态度,唯有D与此相符。此外,短文后面具体说到,骑摩托车危险,所以人们对其评价不高。由此也可选出D。
