问题     If you’re driving in Brooklyn, Ohio, and find yourself attracted by your surroundings, resist the urge to get hold of your cell phone and share the moment. 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. In 1966, after Coyne saw a child who was riding in the front seat of her parents’ car hit her head【40】the windshield (挡风玻璃), the city passed the nation’s first mandatory (立法规定的) seat-belt law.
    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.
    Coyne doesn’t own a cell phone. "I’m not that important," he says.
选项 A、arrested
B、discovered
C、drew
D、saw
答案D
解析 本题为句子层面的动词辨析。本句说他们的警长看到一辆车被其后面的一辆车撞毁。选项A．arrested的“arrest”显然不是事实，交通事故一般不需要逮捕，而且这里的宾语是“a car”，更不可能使用这个词。选项B，discovered通常意思为“发现”，而这个“发现”多指意外发现，而交通事故是不可预见的，相反，它是瞬间发生的，所以用B．discovered不符合逻辑；选项C．drew“划；拉近”更与句意不符。只有选项D．saw表达的“看到”最符合句意，故选D。
