The leafy Cleveland suburb is the first town in the country in which it’s【36】to drive and talk on a cell phone at the same time. "We don’t ban cell phones,"【37】former mayor John M. March. "But pull to the side of the road."

选项 A、confirmed
B、determined
C、decided
D、found

答案A

解析 本题为句子层面的动词辨析。本句说另一次事故使他坚定了禁止驾驶者使用手机的决心。句子主语是“His idea to stop cell—phone users”,而confirm one’s idea是固定词组,意为“打定主意。”determine往往和mind连用,而不和idea一起使用。decide与find都不能与idea连用,而是直接跟某事,故正确答案为A。
