    　　While it is no secret that operating a cell phone behind the wheel can be dangerous, it is often thought that there is less risk if drivers use a hands-free cell phone．New research shows that driving using a hands-free cell phone is just as risky as using a handheld cell phone．In fact, it is comparable to drunk driving!

    　　Researchers from the University of Utah have found that drivers who use both handheld and hands-free cell phones are as distracted(分心)as drunk drivers．According to the research, drivers who use cell phones are more likely to delay braking and get into accidents．

    　　In the study, 40 participants used the driving simulator(模拟器), PatrolSim, to test four different driving conditions：not distracted, using a handheld cell phone, using a hands-free cell phone, and drunk．The driving simulator followed another car that braked occasionally to test the participant’s reaction levels．During the drunk driving trial, the participants were instructed to drink vodka and orange juice until their blood alcohol level reached 0.08－the minimum level that defines drunk driving in most of the U．S．

    　　The researchers found that the participants who talked on a handheld or hands-free cell phone drove slightly slower, had a 9％slower reaction time when stepping on the brakes, and had a 19％slower reaction time when resuming(恢复)normal speed after braking．And the participants who were drunk hit the brakes only 4 seconds before a collision(碰撞)could occur and hit the brakes with 23％more force．

    　　The study also supports earlier research by the scientists, which found that hands-free cell phones were not less distracting than handheld cell phones．The distraction and danger appear to come not from the technology used but from the conversation itself．

    [1]One Friday night in May 2010, Oliver and Ione Kleven heard angry shouts coming from their front lawn(草坪). Ione, 65, stepped onto the porch（门廊） and saw two men in dark clothes struggling with something on the ground—right where she and her grandson had planted a flower bed the weekend before.

    [2] “Go fight somewhere else!” she shouted, worried her plants would get damaged. At the sound of her voice, the face of a boy appeared from beneath the two men. He looked 14. “They’re trying to kill me!” the boy screamed. Ione ran toward them and, without hesitation, caught the boy’s arm, pulling him out.

    [3] “Leave him alone!” she shouted. When the men stood up, Ione saw what looked like a sharp object in one man’s hand. When she turned back toward the boy, he was moaning（呻吟） in pain and holding his stomach. The attackers began to move in on the boy again when Ione’s husband shouted: “Get lost!” The two men walked quickly and quietly across the street and drove off in a dark car.

    [4]“I have to get to the hospital!” the boy cried. He lifted his shirt, and Ione could see a bloody wound on his stomach. Oliver hugged the trembling(发抖的) boy while Ione caught her cell phone and car keys inside the house. She handed the phone to Oliver. “Call 911,” she told him. “I’m going after them.” Ione took off but was unable to find the car.

    [5]The Klevens then learned what had happened . Earlier that night, as the boy waited for his parents to pick him up from the high school across the street from the Klevens’ house, two men approached and demanded his wallet. When he refused, one of the men hit him in the face. The boy ran across the street. The men caught up with him, and one hurt him in the back and stomach with a sharp knife. That’s when Ione stepped in.

    57. Why did Ione shout at the two struggling men? (within 8 words)
