The popularity of mobile devices has had some unintended and even dangerous consequences. We now know that mobile communications are linked to a significant increase in distracted driving, resulting in injury and loss of life.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reported that in this year driver distraction was the cause of 18 percent of all fatal crashes—with 3,328 people killed—and crashes resulting in an injury—with 421,000 people wounded.
Forty percent of all American teens say they have been in a car when the driver used a cell phone in a way that put people in danger, according to a survey.
11 percent of drivers aged 18 to 20 who were involved in an automobile accident and survived admitted they were sending or receiving texts when they crashed.
Distracted driving endangers life and property and the current levels of injury and loss are unacceptable. To stop this problem, the FCC is working with industry, safety organizations, and other government agencies to inform and educate the public about the dangers of distracted driving and is seeking to identify and facilitate the development of innovative technologies that could reduce the incidence of distracted driving. To help in this effort and share information, we created a dedicated website.
Currently there is no national ban on texting or using a wireless phone while driving, but a number of states have passed laws banning texting or wireless phones or requiring hands-free use of wireless phones while driving.
Parents shall give teen drivers simple, clear instructions not to use their wireless devices while driving. According to Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association, the easiest way to say it is: "On the road, off the phone." Before new drivers get their licenses, discuss the fact that taking their eyes off the road—even for a few seconds—could cost someone injury or even death. Children learn from their parent’s behavior. No one should text and drive. Be an example you’re your children and if you need to text or talk on the phone, pull over to a safe place.
Become informed and be active. Review the information and the literature on our website. Set rules for yourself and your household regarding distracted driving. Tell family, friends and organizations to which you belong about the importance of driving without distractions. Take information to your children’s schools and ask that it be shared with students and parents.
20. What is linked to the increase of distracted driving according to this talk?
21. What is the FCC doing to reduce the incidence of using cell phones while driving?
22. How can parents be informed and active in preventing their children from distracted driving?
选项
A、By setting an example for their children.
B、By reviewing the information on the website.
C、By turning off their children’s mobile phones.
D、By sharing the information with other drivers.
答案
B
解析
录音提到,家长要保持消息灵通和态度积极,可浏览网站的相关信息(Review the information)及文章,故选B项。A项“为孩子树立榜样”虽是录音中提到的做法,但与保持信息灵通和态度积极无关。录音中指出家长应建议孩子开车时关闭手机,而不是关掉孩子的手机,C项错误。家长应将相关信息与孩子的学校、同学及其家长分享,而不是与其他司机分享,D项错误。
