    While men were responsible for the greater number of accidents reported，women played their part by driving in high heels．Putting fashion over function meant 44percent of female motorists had been prevented from using the pedals correctly by their high heels-with those aged 25to 34accounting for most of the incidents reported．
    Those keen for a caffeine kick while driving can also create an accident if they leave empty coffee cups lying around their vehicle．Twenty percent of those surveyed admitted they had crashed their car or had a near miss after a deserted coffee cup or empty drink bottle rolled under their brake pedal（刹车踏板）．
    However，it is not just wearing and eating that cause a threat from inside the car，man's best friend could also cause a catastrophe if not safely secured．One in eight motorists claimed to have had a scrape（刮檫）or near miss on the road due to their dog's wandering freely，climbing into the front seat or trying to escape through the windows．
    The accidents meant drivers took their eyes off the road for more than three seconds each time，according to the poll of 2，000British motorists．The survey has found drivers will pick up an average bill of￡261.47for the damage caused by every crash．Londoners were the most at risk of an accident closely followed by motorists in the West Midland and Wales．
    Janet Connor，a managing director，said many accidents could be avoided if people cleaned their cars regularly，as one in ten drivers involved in crashes admitted to driving inside a mountain of debris．She said，"The possible dangers and distractions outside the car are well known but as the evidence suggests，those within the car are often forgotten．"

    46．What mistake do women drivers most probably make while driving？B
    A．They wear expensive clothes．
    B．They wear shoes with high heels．
    C．They drink too much coffee in cars
    D．They take their dog without trying it．
    47．Those who like drinking coffee often have accidents becauseC．
    A．the coffee may make them feel faint
    B．the coffee may make the car smell terrible
    C．the deserted coffee cups may make the brake fail
    D．the deserted coffee cups may look the same as brake pedals
    48．Why shouldn't drivers put their dogs in the car while driving？C
    A．Dogs may bark loudly when they see the traffic lights．
    B．Dogs may make the inside of the car dirty．
    C．Dogs may walk around or even try to escape．
    D．Dogs may break the window to get fresh air．

    2．You have heard of Google，MySpace，Facebook and some geniuses who made billions from brilliant computer ideas．Now meet a girl genius-a New Jersey teenager who turned her high school inspiration into the fastest growing and the third largest online social network in America，behind MySpace and Facebook．
      She's only 18，but Catherine Cook has become a millionaire by updating one of the symbols of the American educational experience-the high school yearbook．
      Not long after Catherine arrived at her new high school at 15，she was flipping through an old yearbook with Dave，her 16-year-old brother，when they found the name of a girl they both knew．Yet the yearbook picture looked nothing like her．In that moment an idea occurred to Catherine．
    "The pictures always smell horrible and the books never really tell you anything about the person．So we thought：why not put it online？Why not have a profile page that can list your TV interests，the music you like，your additional activities？"she said．
      However，neither Catherine nor her brother knew anything about building a website，but family help was at hand．Catherine and Dave have an older brother，Geoff，who had already made an Internet fortune of his own while studying at Harvard University．
      Geoff immediately saw the promise in his younger sister and brother's idea and helped them build the teen networking site myYearbook．com．The website allows friends to stay in touch，share videos and music，provides games and acts as a matchmaker．
       By April 2005 the family was ready to test its new toy．Catherine and Dave turned up at school wearing T-shirts with slogans that read："Are you the prettiest girl in school？How about the most foolish？Find out at myYearbookxom．"
      As teenagers around the country poured into the site，they were followed by a group of investors and advertisers．
       With 10 million users，most under 18，the site is now earning more than $10 million a year in advertising sales．
       Catherine is starting her second year as a student at Georgetown University in Washington DC，but she still works more than 25 hours per week-outside of school hours．

    56．What does this passage mainly talk about？（no more than 10 words）A New Jersey teenager updated the high school yearbook．
    57．What is the meaning of the underlined part in paragraph 3？（no more than 10 words）suddenly catherine came up with an idea．
    58．Who helped  Catherine build the teen networking site my Yearbook．com？（One word）Geoff
    59．Besides individual information，what others functions does Catherine's teen networking site myYearbook．com．provide？（no more than 20 words）The website allows friends to stay in touch，share video and music，provides games and and acts as a matchmaker．
    60．What do you think makes Catherine Cook succeed？（no more than 10 words）Her creativity，hard work as well as her family's help．．
