You are in a beautiful place enjoying the landscape, maybe fishing, but suddenly the peace and quiet is interrupted by the noisy sound of a cell phone! Cell phones are everywhere, and some people don’t know what the limits of cell phone use are.
Nowadays,that’s the biggest problem. People disturb other people, first with the ringing of their cell phones and then with their conversations because they usually speak very loudly. Not everybody in a public place should have to listen to private conversations.
People need to learn how to use cell phones correctly. If there is an emergency, cell phone are acceptable; but remember that just a few years ago few people had cell phones and the whole society survived! Nowadays people can’t seem to live without using the cell phones. They talk in restaurants, in restrooms, in hospitals, and at parties. It’s incredible!
It’s like smoking. Just as people don’t want to be bothered by smokers, they don’t want to be disturbed by cell phone talkers. Our society has to learn to respect other people. It would be great if loud talking was seen as really bad manners. The use of cell phones must be restricted in places such as cinemas, theatres, museums, classrooms, and hospitals.
Nowadays, people just laugh when a cell phone rings in these places, but it’s just the beginning. So in the future I think things are going to change. They should have got tickets when they use them in inappropriate places, like people get parking tickets when they park in inappropriate places. So, we have to write some rules to restrict, or even prohibit, cell phone use in some places. New rules of etiquette (礼仪) are needed for new behaviors in our lives such as using cell phones. It’s going to have to be part of our education in the future.
56. According to the passage, how does the cell phone trouble others? (Within 20 words)
____________________________________________________________________________
57. What is the purpose of the passage? (Within 10 words)
____________________________________________________________________________
58. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “restricted” in Paragraph 4? (Within 3 words)
____________________________________________________________________________
59. What’s the writer’s attitude to the cell phone problem? (Within 15 words)
____________________________________________________________________________
60. If cell phones are acceptable in your school, please list two rules about the correct use of cell phones. (Within 20 words).

The motor vehicle has killed and disabled more people in its brief history than any bomb or weapon ever invented. Much of the blood on the street flows essentially from uncivil behavior of drivers who refuse to respect the 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 carelessness is no excuse when one’s actions could bring death or damage to others. A minority of the killers go even beyond carelessness to total negligence (疏忽).
Researchers have pointed out that as many as 80 percent of all automobile accidents can result from the psychological condition of the driver. Emotional upsets can affect drivers’ reactions, slow their judgment, and blind them to dangers that might otherwise be clear. The experts warn that it is important for every driver to make a conscious effort to keep one’s emotion under control.
Yet the irresponsibility that accounts for much of the problem is not only caused by drivers. Street walkers regularly go against traffic rules, they are to blame in most vehicle walker accidents , and many cyclists even believe that they don’t obey 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 manufacture (制造业) and through regular road-worthiness inspections (车辆上路安检). In addition, speed limits have been lowered. Due to these measures, the accident rate has decreased. But the accident experts still worry because there has been little or no improvement in the way drivers behave. The only real and lasting solution, say the experts, is to convince people that driving is a skilled task requiring constant care and concentration. Those who fail to do all these things present a threat to those with whom they share the road.
1.The following is mentioned as being responsible for the road accidents except .
A. careless bicycle riders B. people walking in the street
C. irresponsible drivers D. irresponsible manufacturers of automobiles
2.Why does the author mention the psychological condition of the driver in Paragraph 3?
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 statements by researchers.
D. To show the hidden tensions in the course of driving
3.What is the author’s main purpose in writing this passage?
A. To show that the motor vehicle is a very dangerous invention.
B. To promote understanding between careless drivers and street walkers.
C. To discuss traffic problems and suggest possible solutions.
D. To warn drivers of the importance of safe driving.
4.Which of the following best reflects the author’s attitude toward a future without traffic accident problems?
A. Doubtful yet still longing for. B. Happy and rather confident.
C. Surprised and very pleased. D. Disappointed and not concerned.
