Motoring Technology
1.2 million road deaths worldwide occur each year,plus a further 50 million injuries.To reduce car crash rate,much research now is focused on safety and new fuels-though some electric vehicle and biofuel research aims at going faster.
Travelling at speed has always been dangerous.One advanced area of research in motoring safety is the use of digital in-car assistants.They can ensure you don't miss important road signs or fall asleep .Most crashes result from human and not mechanical faults.
Some safety developments aim to improve your vision.Radar can spot obstacles in fog,while other technology"sees through"big vehicles blocking your view.
And improvements to seat belts , pedal（脚踏）controls and tyres are making driving smoot- her and safer. The colour of a car has been found to be linked with safety,as have,less surpris- ingly,size and shape.
But whatever is in the fuel tank,you don't want a thief in the driving seat and there have been many innovations（创新）.Satellite tracking and remote communications can also come into play if you crash,automatically calling for help.
Accidents cause many traffic jams,but there are more subtle interplays between vehicles that can cause jams even on a clear but busy road.Such jams can be analyzed using statistical tools.
Robotic drivers could be programmed to make traffic flow smoothly and will perhaps one day be everyone's personal chauffeur（司机）,but their latest efforts suggest that won't be soon.Which of the following safety developments is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A: Windscreens that can help drivers to improve their vision.
B: Radars that can help drivers to see obstacles in fog.
C: Devices that can help drivers to see through big vehicles.
D:Improvements in seat belts,pedal controls and tyres.答案：A解析：本题的答案在第一段第二句话“much research now is focused on safety and new fu-els"，所以正确答案是D，改善汽车的安全和发展新型燃料。
第二段最后一句话明确指出“most crashes result from human and not mechanical faults"，选项B中human mistakes即human faults.
选项B和C的内容在文中第三段提到“Radar can spot obstacles in fog , while other technology ‘ sees through ’ big vehicles blocking your view”，选项D在第四段中第一句话 提到“...improvements to seat belts,pedal controls and tyres are making driving smoother and safer.”只有选项A未被提及。
本题的答案可以直接从第五段倒数第一句话中找到“Satellite tracking and remote communications can also came into play if you crash , automatically calling for help.”这里 come into play是开始起作用的意思。
文章最后一句话指出机器人司机可以使交通运行更通畅，也许有一天机器人会成为每个人的私人司机，但是最近的研究表明这个愿望不会很快实现，这正是选项A所 表达的意思“It will take some time before robotic drivers are available.”其他三个选项的内容文章根本就没有提及。 -

Every day 25 million U.S. children fideschool buses. The safety record for these buses is much better than forpassenger cars; but nevertheless, about 10 children are killed each year ridingon large school buses, and nearly four times that number arc killed outsidebuses in the loading zones. By and large, however, the nation′s school childrenare transported to and from school safety.
Even though the number of school buscasualties (伤亡事故) is not large, the safety of children is always of intense publicconcern. While everyone wants to see children transported safely, people aredivided about what needs to be done particularly whether seat belts should bemandatory (强制).
Proponents of seat belts on schoolbuses--many of them parents and medical organizations argue that seat belts arcnecessary not only to reduce fatality and injury, but also to teach children lessonsabout the importance of using them routinely in any moving vehicle. A sidebenefit, they point out, is those seats belts help keep children in theirseats, away from the bus driver.
Opponents of seat belt installation suggestthat children are already well protected by the school buses that adhere to theNation Highway Traffic Safety Administrations (NHTSA) safety requirements setin 1977. They also believe that many children won′t wear seat belts anyway andthat may damage the belts or use them as weapons to hurt other children.
A new Research Council report on school bussafety suggests that there are alternate safety devices and procedures that maybe more effective and less expensive. For example, the study committeesuggested that raising seat backs four inches may have the same safetyeffectiveness as seat belts.
The report sponsored by the Department ofTransportation at the request of Congress, reviews seat belts extensively whiletaking a broader look at safety in and around school buses.
The title below which best expresses theidea of the passage is______.查看材料A.Making School Buses Even Safer forChildren
