Every year many people died or were injured in car accidents where drivers were using their mobile phones. However, people continue to use them while driving even though it’s dangerous.

A recent study found that when drivers were talking on their mobile phones, their stopping times were 30 percent slower than when they had drunk too much—and nearly 50 percent slower than when they were driving normally(正常地). It also found that drivers talking on mobile phones were less able to control their cars than drunk drivers.

And talking isn’t even the most serious problem, texting is. An average text message takes 90 seconds to write and send. That means for one and a half minutes a driver is looking at their phone’s screen and not at the road. The arrival of new smart phones such as the iPhone will only make matters worse as they will allow users to do more things than ever before.

Using a mobile phone while driving puts others’ lives at risk. No matter how well we drive, if another driver is not being professional or careful，we are put in danger by their actions. Such drivers are selfish, careless and should have their driving licenses (驾照)cancelled.

There is no need to use them while driving. Just wait until you stop or you will probably get into trouble of your own.

1.The underlined word “them” in paragraph 1 refers to________.

A.phone users B.mobile phones

C.drivers D.ears

2.If a driver needs 10 seconds to stop when driving normally, they will need　　　　　　 seconds to stop when talking on a mobile phone.

A.12 B.13 C.14 D.15

3.What is the most serious problem when driving?

A.Talking on the mobile phone. B.Texting. C.Drunk driving. D.Playing.

4.Why will new types of mobile phones make the driving problem worse?

A.It will take longer to send text messages.

B.People will want to talk on their phones more often.

C.There will be more things for people to do with their phones.

D.People think the new phones are easier and safer to use.

5.Which of the following is TRUE?

A.The drivers should use the mobile phone while driving.

B.Talking on mobile phones while driving is really worse than drunk driving.

C.The drivers should be put into prison(监狱) when they send text messages while driving.

British roads are some of the safest in the world. A study in 2018 compared more than 30 countries and found that 3.8 people per 100，000 died in traffic accidents in the UK. 1. So, what did British drivers do to achieve this? What are they doing differently? Here are five top tips for drivers who are planning a trip to the UK.

2. In fact, a long time ago people drove on the left in most countries, but now only a few countries have this. Don't forget that this also means you must drive the other way around roundabouts.

British people feel that waiting should be fair for everybody.3.This is called “jumping the queue”. You must wait for your turn; otherwise people may get angry with you.

You must stop at the traffic lights when they are red. In many countries, it is OK to go past the red lights if you are turning a corner or if there isn't any other traffic around. 4.

If another driver flashes his car's lights at you, he is probably trying to tell you that he will wait for you to go first. British people don't like to use their car horn much and they think people who do so are rude.

5. The police in the UK never take money, and if you try to offer them some, you could end your holiday visiting British prison.

Word Bank:

roundabout 环岛　 flash闪烁　　 horn喇叭　 prison监狱
