More than 30,000 drivers and front seat passengers are killed or seriously injured each year. At the speed of only 30 miles per hour, it is the same as falling from a third-floor window. Wearing a seat belt(安全帶) saves lives; it reduces your chance of death or serious injury by more than half in traffic accidents.
So drivers or front seat passengers over 14 years old in most vehicles(車輛) must wear a seat belt. If you do not, you could be fined(罰金) up to £50. It will not be up to the drivers to make sure you wear your belt. But it will be the driver’s duty to make sure that children under 14 do not ride in the front unless they are wearing a seat belt of some kind.
However, you do not have to wear a seat belt if you are reversing your vehicle(倒車); or if you are a postman using a special vehicle; or if you have a valid medical certificate which allows you not to wear it. Make sure about all the above before you decide not to wear your seat belt. Remember you may be taken to the police station for not doing so.
【小題1】This text is most probably taken from ________.

A.a(chǎn) medical magazine B.a(chǎn) police report

A.reduces road accidents by more than half
B.saves lives while driving at a speed up to 30 miles per hour

解析試題分析:本篇文章講述了系安全帶的重要性。很多的車禍是因為司機和前座的人沒有系安全帶,一旦發(fā)生車禍的話,會受很重的傷,甚至會死亡。所以如果沒有特殊情況的話要系緊安全帶。否則會收到懲罰。
【小題1】推理判斷題。句意:這篇文章比較可能摘自什么地方?根據(jù)文章中第二段If you do not, you could be fined(罰金) up to £50.如果你不這樣做,你會被罰錢的。所以這是警察的文書,故選B。
【小題2】 細節(jié)理解題。句意:在交通工具中戴安全帶 會怎么樣?根據(jù)文章中第一段:Wearing a seat belt(安全帶) saves lives; it reduces your chance of death or serious injury by more than half in traffic accidents.佩戴安全帶能夠拯救生命;它在超過半數(shù)的交通事故中降低了死亡的風險和嚴重嚴重傷害程度。故選C。
【小題3】細節(jié)理解題。句意:司機的職責是什么?根據(jù)文章中第二段:But it will be the driver’s duty to make sure that children under 14 do not ride in the front unless they are wearing a seat belt of some kind.確保十四歲以下的孩子做前座必須系緊安全帶將會是司機的職責。故選B。
【小題4】細節(jié)理解題。句意:根據(jù)文章,下面哪一種人做前座不需要系安全帶?根據(jù)文章中 最后一段you do not have to wear a seat belt if you are reversing your vehicle(倒車); or if you are a postman using a special vehicle; or if you have a valid medical certificate which allows you not to wear it. 如果你正在倒車,不必系安全帶,如果你是開特殊交通工具的郵差,或者是你有一個有效的醫(yī)療證書允許你不帶安全帶,這樣就不用系安全帶了。故選A。
考點:社會現(xiàn)象類短文閱讀。

London, May 5, 2003  Emma Richards of Britain has become the first woman and the youngest person to finish the Around Alone, which is a round-the-world sailing race. The journey started in New York last September and went east around South Africa to New Zealand.

Only her strong willpower kept her going to make it all the way. These days, Emma is happy to be home with her parents and sleep in a bed that stays still.
