Everyone gets sick of hearing. “Put on your seat belt!”But it’s good advice. People who wear seat belts are 45 percent less likely to be killed while riding in the front seat of a car.
The US government wants more seat belt laws. It says children aged 4 to 15 are often killed in car accidents. In 2005, there were 1,627 children aged 4 to 15 killed in car accidents. More than 1,000 of those children were not wearing seat belts. If they had been wearing seat belts, 500 of those children could be alive today.
These children are too old to be in car seats, but they often sit in the back seat. Seat belt laws in many states, including Wisconsin, only require people in the front seat to wear seat belts. Children who aren’t wearing seat belts can be thrown from the car. The risk of dying in an accident is three times greater if the person is thrown from the car.
New laws could require children aged 4 to 8 to be in booster seats in the car. Booster seats help seat belts fit children properly. Right now, only 5 percent of children aged 4 to 8 are seated in booster seats.
While parents have the choice of whether wearing seat belts or not, children are too young to make that choice. Even if you decide not to wear a seat belt, make sure you children are in seat belts and car seats. It’s the law and it will save their lives.
【小题1】The underlined sentence “Everyone gets sick of hearing”in the first paragraph means“________”.
A.there is something wrong with everyone’s ears |
B.all people fall ill when they hear something |
C.many people don’t pay attention to wearing seat belts |
D.none of the people knows it is a piece of good advice |
A.they weren’t using seat belts |
B.they were too careful when they walked on the road |
C.they were not old enough to sit in the car |
D.they wore seat belts |
A.keep them comfortable in the car seat | B.keep them safe |
C.keep them awake in the car all the time | D.prevent all kinds of traffic accidents |
A.Children Should Put on Seat Belts. |
B.Too Many Traffic Accidents Happened Recently. |
C.Traffic Laws Are Very Important. |
D.Parents Are Important to Children. |

When looking back at the scary situation that happened to him on Saturday, Patrick Canney said he couldn’t still believe that it was true. It was a situation that could have ended with a tragedy for Patrick, his father and his sister. But it didn’t really happen thanks to Patrick.
That morning, Patrick’s father was driving down busy Interstate 95 in Peabody, Massachusetts. The car started going really slowly, which seized Patrick’s attention. And then he realized that something was wrong. At that point, Patrick found his father was having a seizure (中风).
“It was really scary,” he said. “It was unlike anything that had ever really happened to me.” But Patrick didn’t act scared. He took control of the situation and got behind the wheel of the SUV. He turned the key off and pulled the car over to the breakdown lane (车道). He then stopped the SUV, grabbed a cell phone out of his dad’s pocket and called 911 for help.
Patrick’s 9-year-old sister was in the SUV, too. He told his little sister not to worry about it. Then he opened the door and stood right next to the guard rail. Thanks to Patrick’s description of their location during the 911 call, Massachusetts State Police were able to locate the Canneys within minutes -- and get them all to safety.
“A 12-year-old boy’s clear thinking and decisive action actually saved this family from a tragedy,” said state police spokesman David. “That’s Patrick. He is cool and collected. I couldn’t imagine what would be the result if he were panicked (惊慌失措).”
Patrick’s father was expected to recover fully from the seizure. And thanks to Patrick, all of the Canneys are still alive. “The word hero may be overused in our society,” said David. “But Patrick is surely that -- and then some.”
【小题1】As soon as he found his father had a seizure, Patrick ________.
A.told his sister not to worry | B.called the police for help at once |
C.tried his best to save his father | D.managed to take control of the car |
A.confused | B.positive | C.calm | D.serious |
A.Patrick should learn from real heroes in society. |
B.Patrick was a cool boy who matched the word hero. |
C.Patrick should be rewarded for his behavior. |
D.Patrick should protect his family carefully in the future. |
A.A kid made every effort to survive in a car crash. |
B.A kid turned into a lifesaver after his father was ill. |
C.A kid learned how to become a hero by using his wisdom. |
D.A kid saved his sister when they drove on a highway. |
