(22) Texting while driving was listed as a major cause of road deaths among young Americans back in 2013. A recent study said that 40 percent of American teens claim to have been in a car when the driver used a cell phone in a way that put people in danger. This sounds like a widespread disease, but it’s one that technology may now help to cure. T. J. Evarts, a 20-year-old inventor, has come up with a novel solution that could easily put texting drivers on notice. (23) It’s called Smart Wheel, and it’s designed to fit over the steering wheel of most standard vehicles to track whether or not the driver has two hands on the wheel at all times. (24) Evarts’s invention warns the drivers with a light and a sound when they hold the wheel with one hand only, but as soon as they place the other hand back on the wheel the light turns back to green and the sound stops. It also watches for what’s called “close by hands”, where both hands are close together near the top of the wheel so the driver can type with both thumbs and drive at the same time. (25) All the data Smart Wheel collects is also sent to a connected app, so any parents who install Smart Wheel can keep track of the teens’ driving habits. If they try to remove or damage the cover, that’s reported as well.
Questions 22 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.
22. What is a major cause of road deaths among young Americans?
23. What is Smart Wheel?
24. What happens if the driver has one hand on the wheel?
25. How do parents keep track of their teens’ driving habits?
选项
A、A gadget to hold a phone on the steering wheel.
B、A gadget to charge the phone in a car.
C、A device to control the speed of a vehicle.
D、A device to ensure people drive with both hands.
答案
D
解析
浏览四个选项,从选项中的gadget,hold,device,control,ensure等词可推测,此题与解决不当驾驶行为的设备有关。题干问的是什么是智能方向盘。短文中间部分提到,智能方向盘安装在大多数标准交通工具的方向盘上,用来监测司机的双手是否一直在方向盘上。由此可知,智能方向盘是一种确保人们用双手开车的设备,故答案为D。A项(方向盘上放手机的小装置)、B项(车内给手机充电的装置)和C项(控制车速的装置)短文均未提及,故排除。
