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、continued
B、insisted
C、persisted
D、stopped
答案A
解析 本题为句子层面的动词辨析。根据上文“The driver of the second car was talking on a cell phone”，并且“…talking even after the crash．”可知他在继续通话，应用词组continue doing，故选项A．为正确答案。选项B．insisted一词的搭配为：insisted on doing，意为“坚持做”；选项C persisted的搭配为：persisted in doing，意思也是“持续做”，从结构上与文章不能形成搭配，而且意思也与原文句子意思不符。而选项D．stopped的搭配可以为stop doing，但是意思为“停止做”，也与原文意思不符。
