问题         DISTANCE TRAVELED BY A CAR ACCORDING TO THE CAR’S SPEED
                WHEN THE DRIVER IS SIGNALED TO STOP

*Reaction time is the time period that begins when the driver is signaled to stop and ends when the driver applies the brakes.
Note: Total stopping distance is the sum of the distance traveled during reaction time and the distance traveled after brakes have been applied.
The speed, in miles per hour, at which the car travels a distance of 52 feet during reaction time is closest to which of the following?

选项 A、43
B、47
C、51
D、55
E、59

答案B

解析 The data accompanying questions 17 to 20 consists of two graphs. It is a good idea to look at the graphs before you try to answer the questions, so you can become familiar with the information contained in the graphs. Then, as you read each question, you should think about which of the graphs contains the information you need to solve the problem. It could be that all the information you need to solve the problem is contained in one of the graphs, or it could be that you need to get information from both of the graphs.
    The graph on the left shows the relationship between the speed of the automobile and the distance it traveled during the reaction time. Therefore, the answer to this question is found using this graph by reading the speed, in miles per hour, corresponding to a distance of 52 feet. A distance of 52 feet is a little above the distance of 50 feet on the vertical axis of the graph. On the graph, the speed corresponding to a distance of 52 feet is a little less than 50 miles per hour. The correct answer is Choice B.
