13、 his newspaper. Either way, the lady will have to stand【32】someone else gets off.You cant entirely【33】 men for this change in manners, though. The days are gone when women could be referred to【34】the weaker sex without causing【35】. A whole generation of women has grown up demanding【36】with men, not

Much of the blood on the street flows essentially from uncivil behavior of drivers who refuse to respect t

19、he legal and moral rights of others. So the massacre(大屠杀) on the road may be regarded as a social problem. In fact, the enemies of society on wheels are rather harmless people, just ordinary people acting carelessly, you might say. But it is a principle both of law and common morality that carelessn

20、ess is no excuse when ones actions could bring death or damage to others.Researchers have estimated that as many as 80 percent of all automobile accidents can be attributed to the psychological condition of the driver. Emotional upsets can distort driversreactions, slow their judgments, and blind th

21、em to dangers that might otherwise be evident. The experts warn that it is vital for every driver to make a conscious effort to keep ones emotions under control.Yet the irresponsibility that accounts for much of the problem is not confined to drivers. Street walkers regularly violate traffic regulat

22、ions. They are at fault in most vehicle walker accidents. And many cyclists even believe that they are not subject to the basic rules of the road.Significant legal advances have been made towards safer driving in the past few years. Safety standards for vehicle have been raised both at the point of

Those who fail to do all these things present a threat to those with whom they share the roadside.46 What is the authors main purpose in writing the passage?（A）To show that the

25、motor vehicle is a very dangerous invention.（B） To promote understanding between careless drivers and street walker.（C） To discuss traffic problems and propose possible solution.（D）To warn drivers of the importance of safe driving.47 According to the passage, traffic accidents may be regarded as a s

26、ocial problem because_.（A）autos have become most destructive to mankind（B） people usually pay little attention to law and morality（C） civilization brings much harm to people（D）the lack of virtue is becoming more severe48 Why does the author mention the psychological condition of the driver in Paragr

27、aph 2?（A）To give an example of the various reasons for road accidents.（B） To show how important it is for drivers to be emotionally healthy.（C） To show some of the inaccurate estimations by researchers.（D）To illustrate the hidden tensions in the course of driving.49 Who are NOT mentioned as being re

28、sponsible for the road accidents?（A）Careless bicycle-riders.（B） Irresponsible manufactures of automobiles.（C） Irresponsible drivers.（D）Mindless people walking in the street.50 Which of the following best reflects the authors attitude toward a future without traffic accident problems?（A）Happy and rat

29、her confident.（B） Surprised and very pleased.（C） Disappointed and deeply worried.（D）Doubtful yet still longing for.50 The often criticized child of the industrial age, advertising, has grown as societies have become more industrialized and, therefore, more commercialized. No modern industry or compa

30、ny can survive without advertising. It is the vital link between the producer and the customer. If advertising were abolished, as many people have suggested it should be, the public and the companies that advertise would suffer a considerable loss.Most people think of television as an inexpensive so

31、urce of entertainment. Television s primary purpose, however, is not to provide an entertainment service, except for government-owned network, it exists in order to promote products for companies. Unless the television industry received income from advertising, watching television would be at least

32、as expensive as going to the movies.Like television, many magazines and newspapers exist primarily to sell products. In some sensitive cases, the stories, pictures, and editorials simply attract people to buy a particular publication. Once a person begins to read, there is no escaping the advertisin

33、g.Advertising not only pays for, or helps pay for, much of the mass media; it also provides the consumer with news from industry. This news functions first to influence the buyers to choose one product over another. It also informs people of new products what are important in their lives, for exampl

34、e, the development of salt-free butter for heart patients, or the development of tires that prevent skidding(刹车打滑) on wet pavement.Advertising does not usually increase the total number of products sold; it does help determine which company sells more of which products. Its main function is to relay

35、 news from the manufacture to the consumer. Since this is a necessary service, advertising will remain a part of peoples everyday live and a part of every companys budget.51 According to the passage, modern industry or company can survive _.（A）if advertising continues to exist（B） if the link between

36、 the customers and manufacturers remains good（C） if “the criticized child“ dies out（D）if societies have become more industrialized52 From the passage, we may figure out that“ vital“ in line 3, paragraph 1 means _.（A）direct（B） important（C） only（D）visible53 According to the passage, the main purpose o

41、e floor.

42、our head down until the plane comes to a complete stop. If smoke is present in the cabin, you should keep your head low and cover your face with napkins, towels, or clothing. If possible, wet these for added protection against smoke inhalation. To evacuate as quickly as possible, follow crew command

43、s and do not take personal belongings with you. Do not jump on escape slides before they are fully inflated, and when you jump, do so with your arms and legs extended in front of you.

Perhaps they are too young and inexperienced to

48、 think about the life they would face and a career they must choose as a means of livelihood. However, it is inevitable that someday he has to make his choice by himself. It is important to choose a career for which one has an aptitude. In this case a person can quickly get trained in that particula

49、r field or line. This would also save a lot of time and money. Take, for instance, a boy who is mathematically inclined. He should opt for careers like engineering, physics or accountancy. The career in mind should also suit his temperament, ability and talent. Only then can he be sure of choosing a career that he would like and enjoy. He can then employ his talent and ability
