It is all very well to blame traffic jams, the cost of petrol and the quick pace of modern life, but manners on the roads are becoming horrible. Everybody knows that the【C1】________men become monsters behind the wheel. You might tolerate the odd road-hog, the rude and【C2】________driver, but nowadays the well-mannered motorist is the exception to the rule. Perhaps the situation【C3】________a "Be Kind to Other Drivers" campaign,【C4】________it may get completely out of hand.
Road politeness is not only good manners, but good sense too. It takes the most cool-headed and good-tempered of drivers to【C5】________the temptation to revenge when subjected to uncivilized behavior. On the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way【C6】________relieving the tensions of motoring. A friendly nod or a wave of acknowledgement【C7】________an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of goodwill and tolerance so【C8】________in modern traffic conditions. But such acknowledgements of politeness are all too【C9】________today. Many drivers nowadays don’t even seem able to【C10】________politeness when they see it.
【C11】________, misplaced politeness can also be dangerous. Typical examples are the driver who brakes violently to【C12】________a car to emerge from a side street at some【C13】________to following traffic, when a few seconds later the road would be clear anyway; or the man who waves a child across a zebra crossing into the【C14】________of oncoming vehicles that may be unable to stop in time. The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they care to.
A【C15】________driver, whose manners are faultless, told me it would help【C16】________motorists learnt to filter correctly into traffic streams one at a time without causing the total blockages that give rise to bad temper.【C17】________, modern motorists can’t even learn to drive, let alone【C18】________the subtler aspects of roadsmanship. Years ago the experts warned us that the car-ownership【C19】________would demand a lot more give-and-take from all road users. It is【C20】________time for all of us to take this message to heart.
【C15】
选项
A、rude
B、polite
C、civil
D、veteran
答案
D
解析
根据下文讲到的“学会依次恰当地汇入车流”及“现代的驾驶者连驾车都没学会”,可推测作者是想强调这个司机的驾驶技术是娴熟老练的,故选D项veteran“老练的。经验丰富的”。A项rude“粗鲁的”,与下文的“举止完美”相矛盾。B项polite“礼貌的”,C项civil“彬彬有礼的”同接下来的定语从句讲到的manners are faultless讲的是同一内容,完全与下文所涉及的“驾驶水平”无关。显然没有D项准确。
