brief history than any bomb or weapon ever invented. Much of the blood on the street flows essentially from uncivil(不文明的) 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 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. A minority of the killers go even beyond carelessness to total negligence(疏忽).
Researchers have estimated that as many as 80 percent of all automobile accidents are due to the mental condition of the driver. Emotional upsets can distort drivers'reactions, slow their judgment, and blind them to dangers that might otherwise be evident. The experts warn that it is vital 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; and many cyclists even believe that they are not subject to the basic rules of the road.
Significant legal advances have been made towards safer driving in the past few years. Safety standards for vehicle have been raised both at the point of manufacture and through periodic road- worthiness inspections. In addition, speed limits have been
lowered. Due to these measures, the accident rate has decreased. But accident experts still worry because there has been little or no improvement in the way drivers behave. The only real and lasting solution, say the experts, is to convince people that driving is a skilled task requiring constant care and concentration. Those who fail to do all these things present a threat to those with whom they share the road.
25． What is the author's main purpose in writing the passage?
A．To show that the motor vehicle is a very dangerous invention.
B．To promote understanding between careless drivers and street walkers.
C．To discuss traffic problems and propose possible solutions.
D．To warn drivers of the importance of safe driving.
a social problem because ______.
A．autos have become most destructive to mankind
B．people usually pay little attention to law and morality
C．civilization brings much harm to people
D．the lack of virtue is becoming more severe
27． Why does the author mention the mental condition of the driver in Paragraph 3?
A．To give an example of the various reasons for road accidents.
B．To show how important it is for drivers to be emotionally healthy.
is a problem to nearly everyone at some time. A person may be awake for an hour in the middle of the night and then, next morning, feel that he hardly slept all night. Normally, worrying about not
getting enough sleep is the worst aspect of most insomnia. If insomnia is recurrent, however, it is important to find its possible causes and try to correct them, with the help of a doctor if necessary.
A large number of simple factors may make it difficult for someone to fall asleep or remain asleep. His mattress may be too
soft or too hard. The bedroom itself may be overheated or too cold. If it is not dark enough, or too noisy, this may cause difficulty
in sleeping. Eating shortly before going to bed may also be responsible for insomnia. Stimulating drinks, such as tea or coffee, can also keep people awake.
Inability to fall asleep is sometimes a symptom of emotional or mental disorders. Insomnia may also be caused by pain and, very rarely, it can be a symptom of a physical disease.
The cause of insomnia may be easy to correct. The sufferer should check the mattress, bedroom temperature, and make any necessary changes, He should relax for an hour or two before bedtime, perhaps by reading a book, watching television or taking a warm bath. If he wakes during the night, he should try turning on the light and reading for a while. Above all, he should try not to worry about sleeplessness.
If necessary, a doctor may prescribe tranquillizers(镇静剂) or sleeping pills. Take only the dosage he prescribes; any more is dangerous.
