The motor vehicle has killed and disabled more people in its brief history than any bomb or weapon ever invented. Much of the blood on the street flows essentially from impolite behavior of drivers who refuse to respect the legal and moral rights of others. So the killing on the road may be regarded as a social problem.
In fact the enemies of society on wheels are a rather harmless people, just ordinary people acting carelessly, you might say. But it is a principle both of law and common morality(道德)that carelessness is no excuse when one’s actions could bring death or damage to others.
Researchers have estimated that as many as 80 percent of all automobile accidents result from the psychological condition of the driver. Emotional upsets can damage drivers’ reactions, slow their judgment, and blind them to dangers that might otherwise be obvious. The experts warn that it is essential for every driver to make a conscious effort to keep one’s emotions under control.
Yet the irresponsibility that accounts for much of the problem is not confined to drivers. Street walkers regularly violate traffic regulations. They are at fault in most vehicle walker accidents. Many cyclists even believe that they are not subject to the basic rules of the road.
The word "confine"(Line 1, Para. 4)most probably means ______.
选项
A、controlled
B、defined
C、restricted
D、forgiven
答案
C
解析
语义理解题。本题询问文章中第四段第一行中单词“confine”的意思。可以从上下文中理解此单词的意思。第一、二、三段主要讲了司机在交通事故中所负的责任,而最后一段除了第一句话之外都是讲行人在交通事故中的责任。此外,第四段中的第一个单词“yet”表明第一句话是转折句。根据上下文的意思可知交通事故中司机和行人都有责任,即事故责任不能仅限于司机这一方。故选项C(限制)意思最相近,为正确答案。
