Decide which of the choices given below would best complete the passage if inserted in the corresponding blanks.
It is all very well to blame traffic jams, the cost of petrol and the【31】pace of modern life, but manners on the roads are becoming horrible. Everybody knows that the nicest men become monsters【32】the wheel. It is all very well, again, to have a tiger in the tank, but to have one in the driver’s seat is【33】matter altogether. You might tolerate the odd road-hog, the rude and inconsiderate driver, but nowadays the well-mannered motorist is the【34】to the rule. Perhaps the situation【35】a "Be Kind to Other Drivers" campaign,【36】it may get completely【37】
Road politeness is not only good manners, but good【38】too. It takes the most cool-headed and good-tempered of drivers to【39】the temptation to revenge when【40】to uncivilized behavior. On the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way towards【41】the tensions of motoring. A friendly nod or a wave of acknowledgement in【42】to an act of politeness helps to【43】an atmosphere of goodwill and tolerance so necessary in modem traffic conditions. But such acknowledgements of politeness are all too【44】today. Many drivers nowadays don’t even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.
【45】, misplaced politeness can also be dangerous. Typical examples are the driver who brakes【46】to allow a car to emerge【47】a side street at some hazard to following traffic,【48】a few seconds later the road would be clear anyway; or the man who waves a child across a zebra【49】into the path of oncoming vehicles that may be unable to stop【50】
Years ago the experts warned us that the car-ownership explosion would demand a lot more give-and-take from all road users. It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.
