In your car you may have a cell phone, a telephone also known as a mobile phone that you can carry around and use anywhere. On your way, you may feel coordinated and enjoy your hands-free phone talking while driving. But recent studies suggest that it isn’ t the dialing or the arm waving that makes driving while talking on a cell phone dangerous. It is the yakking itself—or more precisely, the continuous conversation with someone who isn’ t present—that makes. David Strayer, a Utah psychologist, says "Your driving performance while talking on a cell phone is weakened at levels comparable to, or worse than, driving with a blood alcohol level of 0.08," which is the legal limit in most states of America.
Using a driving-training simulator, Strayer and his colleagues compared the attention levels and response time of 110 drivers in various situations. In dense traffic, cell phone users were about 20 percent slower to respond to sudden hazards than other drivers, and they were about twice as likely to drive into the back of a braking car in front of them. " Cell phone drivers are obtaining less than 50 percent of the visual information that non-cell drivers are getting," says Strayer. " Looking and seeing are not one and the same. " By contrast, the researchers found that listening to the radio or conversing with passengers is not as hazardous. "When a dangerous situation arises, the driver and passengers put their conversation on pause," Strayer says.
Whether talking with a passenger or someone on a cell phone, however, people are less able to recall the details of a conversation carried on while driving. " So it might not be good for your economic health to discuss investment strategies with your agent while either of you is driving. " Strayer adds lastly.
Which of the following does Strayer want to stress most in Para. 1 ?
选项
A、The driving performance may be weakened by a cell phone talking.
B、The driving performance may be affected by a high blood alcohol level.
C、Drivers should not be allowed to drive after drinking.
D、A cell phone talking is no less hazardous than alcohol in driving.
答案
D
解析
推理判断题。根据文章第一段最后一句“…Your driving performance while talking on a cell phone is weakened at levels comparable to,or worse than,driving with a blood alcohol level of 0.08…”可知,打电话会使驾驶技能减弱,其危险度相当于血液中含有0.08的酒精度,甚至有过之而无不及。根据这里的or worse than可以推断出,Strayer想要强调的是开车打电话比酒后驾驶更加危险,所以答案为D。
