Fumbling with the buttons to find a good

题型:阅读理解

题目:

Fumbling with the buttons to find a good song while driving has been linked to increased risk of crashes, but is listening to music risky? “It depends on the music,” says a report published in the October issue of Accident Analysis & Prevention.

The study found teenage drivers who played their own music had significantly more traffic violations(违规) compared with background music designed by the researchers to minimize driving distractions, or no music.

Researchers at Ben-Gurion University in Israel recruited(招募) 85 drivers about 18 years old; just over half were male. The subjects were each assigned to drive six challenging road trips that were about 40 minutes long, accompanied by an experienced driving instructor. Music was played on four trips, two with selections from the drivers' playlists, mostly fast-paced vocals, and two with background music, which was a mixture of easy listening, soft rock and light jazz designed to increase driver safety. No music was played on two trips. Subjects rated their mood after each trip and in-car data recorders analyzed driver behavior and errors.

All 85 subjects committed at least three errors in one or more of the six trips; 27 received a warning and 17 required steering or braking by an instructor to prevent an accident. When the music was their own, 98% made errors; without the music, 92% made errors; and while listening to the safe-driving music, 77% made errors. Speeding, following too close, inappropriate lane use, one-handed driving and were the common violations.

The male subjects were more aggressive drivers and made more serious errors than female subjects. The teens played their own music at a very loud volume but significantly decreased the sound level when listening to the safe-driving music, researchers said. Mood ratings were highest on trips with driver-preferred music.

A.Many drivers played their favorite music while driving.

B.Drivers shouldn’t search for the buttons to find a good song.

C.Song selection has nothing to do with increased risk of crashes.

D.Areas of knowledge or study.小题3:In the research, soft rock and light jazz are likely to _______.

阅读下面文章,回答22—25题。(一)美国康奈尔大学的著名天文学家卡尔萨根曾指出,在整个银河系中差不多有两千亿颗恒星,这些恒星中有相当一部分带有行星。在这些行星中,与地球环境近似的,估计可能多达一百万颗。既然生命能够在地球上产生和演化,那也就可能同样在这些行星身上产生和演化,并发展出智慧生物,而其中必定有一部分,要比现在的人类文明更为先进,因此,这些天文学家认为,在地球以外的别的星球上出现智慧生命,是完全可能的。(二)但是萨根却对世界各地常常报道的有人遭遇外星人的消息嗤之以鼻。他认为,这些报道,都是把一些人类掌握的科技加到所谓外星人身上,所描述的外星人形象也大多是人类的变形,而在别的星球,生命进化过程千差万别,外星智慧生命的演化形态很可能与人类完全不同,其掌握的科技也会与人类完全两样。而且这些可能产生智慧生命的星球,离地球距离都在几千或几万光年。因此,以为每年甚至每天都有外星人来访的说法,更是完全不现实的。(三)萨根的看法,大致可以代表严肃的科学家的意见,这就是说,外星智慧生命的存在,从理论上讲是完全可能的,但各种发现外星人的消息却大都不足为信。

根据第一段内容,认为“在地球以外的别的星球上出现智慧生命,是完全可能的”的理由,下列解释不够准确的一项是()。

A.银河系中存在众多恒星

B.相当一部分恒星带有行星

C.很多行星都与地球环境近似

D. 与地球环境近似就会产生智慧生命
