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."
    It wasn’t the first【38】Brooklyn, with a population of 11924 and Coyne, 83, who served as mayor for 52 years,【39】the lead on driving safety.

    His idea to stop cell-phone users was【41】by another accident. "In early January 1999," he says, "our chief of police【42】a car smashed (撞毁) from behind by another vehicle." The driver of the second car was talking on a cell phone and, according to die chief,【43】talking even after the crash.
    The regulation【44】drivers to keep both hands on the steering wheel while talking on a cell phone. First-time offenders are fined $3, then the fine jumps【45】$100.

选项 A、fault
B、illegal
C、incorrect
D、mistaken
答案B
解析 本题为语篇层面的形容词辨析题。根据上下文的意思，树木茂盛的Cleveland郊区是该国首个将在驾驶时拨打手机定为非法的城镇。只有选项B符合文章的意思。选项A．fault意为“错误”，而下文句子： “We don’t ban cell phones…．But pull to the side of the road．”出现了“ban”一词，意为“禁止”，尤指通过法令禁止。而“fault”只是一般错误。选项C．incorrect：意为“不正确”。选项D．mistaken意为“错误的”。这三个词都与原文“ban”的意思不符。
