　　Have you heard the story about the two drivers who wanted to park their cars in the same parking space? The man who arrived at the parking space first was rather old with grey hair. He was driving a large Rolls Royce. The beautiful car stopped just in front of the parking space. Then the driver turned his head and very slowly began to drive his car into the space. Just as he was doing this, a very young man in a Mini came up from behind. He noticed the space and drove straight in, nose first. The older driver in the Royce stopped his car suddenly. He was very angry and red in the face. He wound down his window and looked at the young man. But the young man wasn't sorry. He had got out of his car now and he was laughing. “You have to be young to do that!” he said to the older driver and pointed at his Mini and at the space he had just taken. The older man said nothing. He just began to drive his Rolls Royce again and hit the Mini very hard. There wasn't much of the Mini left when the older driver had finished. The young man watched what was happening and couldn't believe his eyes. He was very angry and very red in the face.

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

　　Learning to drive is important to the independence of teenagers, but it is also a great responsibility．Although having a law that keeps 16-year-old drivers from having more than one teenager in the car with them at first seems unfair, there are convincing reasons for this requirement．

　　The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety reports that teens are four times more likely than older drivers to be involved in an automobile accident．It also reports that 16-and 17-year-old drivers are twice as likely to have an accident if they have two teenage friends in the car and four times as likely to have one if they have three or more teenage friends in the car with them．Fatal(致命的)crashes of 16-year-old drivers involve the highest percentage of speeding, driver error, and number of passengers．This information is enough to cause any reasonable person to wonder about the wisdom of allowing new teen drivers to take a carload of friends anywhere, even if the law permits it．

　　A study at the National Institutes of Health indicates that the part of the human brain that controls judgment and evaluates the consequences of our actions might not be fully formed until the age of 25．Until this study, researchers had placed the age at 18．If this is true, it could explain the reckless(魯莽的)behavior of many teens, behavior that often extends into their twenties．It also could be a strong reason for being cautious about the driving circumstances of young people．

　　This is not the only study that indicates such caution is necessary．One study at Temple University in Philadelphia examines the results of peer pressure in risky driving situations．The study, which uses a driving game, has an individual guide a car through a course, both alone and in the presence of friends．Three different age groups participated in the study：13-16, 18-22, and 24 and older．Members of the oldest group showed caution whether driving alone or with friends present, but the two younger groups took more chances when they were with their friends．Furthermore, because these drivers were accustomed to the noise and distraction of many passengers, they were unable to see their own mistakes．Once again, this is a good indication that a law restricting the number of teenagers in the car with a young driver is a good idea．

(1)

What does the author mainly tell us in Paragraph 2?

[　　]

A．

Many deaths have occurred because of inexperience and overconfidence．

B．

It' s reasonable to severely limit the passenger number of teen drivers．

C．

New teen drivers have to．a(chǎn)sk permission before driving with friends．

D．

There are many causes behind the teens' driving accidents．

(2)

From the two studies, the author probably suggests that ________．

[　　]

A．

different age groups have different peer pressure

B．

teenagers often give wrong judgments above passengers' noise

C．

underdeveloped brain makes teens ignore their mistakes

D．

driving circumstances are bound up with the risk of accidents

(3)

We can infer that the law restriction can probably ________．

[　　]

A．

protect teens on the highway

B．

raise teens' sense of responsibility

C．

reduce the number of fatal crashes

D．

force teens to drive with caution

(4)

With which statement would the author most likely disagree?

[　　]

A．

Some teenagers have risky behavior while driving．

B．

Certain laws treat teenagers and adults differently．

C．

We still need more studies on teen driving．

D．

Driving is important to a teenager' s sense of independence．
