Car crashes are the top killer of American teenagers. Most of the crashes result from distracted driving—not paying attention to the road. Ryan Didone was a 15-year-old passenger in a car that hit a tree. He was one of the nation’s more than 30 000 victims of traffic crashes in 2009. Nearly 4 000 deaths, about 12%, involved drivers aged 15 to 20. His father told the story, "It was an inexperienced, immature driver who felt that he was invincible, driving at night with some kids. He was distracted. He was going too fast, and it ended up causing one death and some serious trauma and tragedy for the rest of the community. " The No. 1 cause of distracted-driving accidents is the mobile phone. Talking on the phone or reaching for it is like drinking four beers and driving.(34)Teens are especially at risk from distracted driving—and not just because they lack experience on the roads, but because teens don’t really have fully developed brains until they’re 25 years old. If those two things were put together, a much, much higher risk would be got. Government and private groups are using public service announcements and events to bring more attention to this problem. For example, the insurance industry recently held a safety event near Washington for teen drivers.(35)New legislation in Congress proposes to require all states to have what is called a graduated driver licensing system. Graduated means teenagers start with restrictions like night driving and numbers of passengers. They could not get a full driver’s license until age 18.
33. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
34. Why are teens especially at risk from distracted driving according to the passage?
35. What do we learn about graduated driver licensing system?
选项
A、It is meant to protect the teen drivers.
B、Night driving and drunken driving are banned.
C、The system has been put into effect in all states.
D、One will not get a license until he graduates from a driving school.
答案
A
解析
综合推断题。文章最后提到国会新的立法议案要求所有的州都实行毕业驾驶员执照制度,这个制度对青少年夜间开车和开车时乘客的数目进行了限制,青少年只有到了18岁才能得到正式的驾驶执照。由此可知,这一制度的目的是为了减少交通事故,保护青少年。
