Over the last seven years, mst states have banned texting by drivers, and public service campaigns have tried a wide range f methds t persuade peple t put dwn their phnes when they are behind the wheel.
Yet the prblem, by just abut any measure, appears t be getting wrse. Americans are still texting while driving, as well as using scial netwrks and taking phts. Rad accidents, which had fallen fr years, are nw rising sharply.
That is partly because peple are driving mre, but Mark Rsekind, the chief f the Natinal Highway Traffic Safety Administratin, said distracted(分心的)driving was “nly increasing, unfrtunately.”
“Big change requires big ideas.” he said in a speech last mnth, referring bradly t the need t imprve rad safety. S t try t change a distinctly mdern behavir, lawmakers and public health experts are reaching back t an ld apprach: They want t treat distracted driving like drunk driving.
An idea frm lawmakers in New Yrk is t give plice fficers a new device called the Textalyzer. It wuld wrk like this: An fficer arriving at the scene f a crash culd ask fr the phnes f the drivers and use the Textalyzer t check in the perating system fr recent activity. The technlgy culd determine whether a driver had just texted, emailed r dne anything else that is nt allwed under New Yrk’s hands-free driving laws.
“We need smething n the bks that can change peple’s behavir,” said Félix W. Ortiz, wh pushed fr the state’s 2001 ban n hand-held devices by drivers. If the Textalyzer bill becmes law, he said, “peple are ging t be mre afraid t put their hands n the cell phne.”
28. Which f the fllwing best describes the ban n drivers’ texting in the US?
A. Ineffective.B. Unnecessary.C. Incnsistent.D. Unfair.
29. What can the Textalyzer help a plice fficer find ut?
A. Where a driver came frm.B. Whether a driver used their phne.
C. Hw fast a driver was ging.D. When a driver arrived at the scene.
30. What des the underlined wrd “smething” in the last paragraph refer t?
A. Advice.B. Data.C. Tests.D. Laws.
31. What is a suitable title fr the text?
A. T Drive r Nt t Drive? Think Befre Yu Start
B. Texting and Driving? Watch Out fr the Textalyzer
C. New Yrk Banning Hand-Held Devices by Drivers
D. The Next Generatin Cell Phne: The Textalyzer

D yu have skinny genes? And I’m nt talking abut the pants yu wre in cllege but can’t fit int anymre. N, skinny genes are factrs fund in flks wh are naturally thin. And researchers have just identified ne that appears t tell the bdy’s tissue t burn mre fat.
“We all knw these peple wh can eat whatever they want but never gain any weight.” Jsef Penninger is a geneticist at the University f British Clumbia. He says that individuals wh are effrtlessly thin may hld the key t understanding besity. See, scientists interested in learning hw we cntrl ur weight have traditinally fcused n the things that make yu fat, like diet r metablism（新陈代谢）. “But nt really studied why peple actually stay skinny. S we thught we’d just turn arund the fields and study genetics f thinness.”
Penninger and his clleagues started ut by searching a database maintained by a genme center in Estnia fr its mst thin registrants. And they weeded ut peple wh were listed as having anrexia（厌食症）r ther cnditins that change bdy fat. Then they lked fr genetic markers that track with these Skinny Petes.
One gene, in particular, caught their eye: ALK, r the gene fr anaplastic lymphma kinase, is a stretch f DNA whse mutant（突变体）frm has been assciated with human cancers.
“But its nrmal functin had never been established.” S the scientists made mutant fruit flies and mutant mice.” T really shw that the gene assciated with thinness in humans als makes flies and mice skinny. And that’s exactly what we fund.” But the mutant gene desn’t cause the animals t eat less. “We fund that ALK acts in ur brains and what it des: it allws ur bdy t burn mre calries the same fd we eat.” S the brain tells fat cells t burn mre f the fat they have scked away.
“Peple, mice and, we believe, als flies stay skinny. S this mechanism（（生物体内的）机制）is evlutinarily cnserved frm insects t humans and, we believe, pens up an entirely new field f thinness.” There are already drugs that prevent the cancer-causing frm f ALK, which means that ALK is what scientists call a druggable target. “S maybe ne day we can indeed develp a pill which keeps us thin.”
32. What did the previus study fcus n?
A. Skinny genes. B. Subjects’ daily rutines.
C. Family members’ influence. D. Factrs cntributing t being fat.
33. What des the underlined phrase mean in Para.4?
A. Included. B. Cunted C. Cmpared. D. Remved.
34. What d we knw abut ALK frm the passage?
A. It is a gene t burn fat. C. It dminates cancer drugs.
B. It is unique t wild creatures. D. It makes the carriers eat less.
35. What is the researchers’ attitude twards the new directin f the study?
A. Optimistic. B. Cnservative. C. Dubtful. D. Hpeless.

I felt s embarrassed and upset but I wuld have t g teach my curse like this. When I nticed hw much I wanted t disappear and avid this situatin, I was determined t face it instead.

Over the last seven years, mst states have banned texting by drivers, and public service campaigns have tried a wide range f methds t persuade peple t put dwn their phnes when they are behind the wheel.
Yet the prblem, by just abut any measure, appears t be getting wrse. Americans are still texting while driving, as well as using scial netwrks and taking phts. Rad accidents, which had fallen fr years, are nw rising sharply.
That is partly because peple are driving mre, but Mark Rsekind, the chief f the Natinal Highway Traffic Safety Administratin, said distracted(分心的)driving was “nly increasing, unfrtunately.”
“Big change requires big ideas.” he said in a speech last mnth, referring bradly t the need t imprve rad safety. S t try t change a distinctly mdern behavir, lawmakers and public health experts are reaching back t an ld apprach: They want t treat distracted driving like drunk driving.
An idea frm lawmakers in New Yrk is t give plice fficers a new device called the Textalyzer. It wuld wrk like this: An fficer arriving at the scene f a crash culd ask fr the phnes f the drivers and use the Textalyzer t check in the perating system fr recent activity. The technlgy culd determine whether a driver had just texted, emailed r dne anything else that is nt allwed under New Yrk’s hands-free driving laws.
“We need smething n the bks that can change peple’s behavir,” said Félix W. Ortiz, wh pushed fr the state’s 2001 ban n hand-held devices by drivers. If the Textalyzer bill becmes law, he said, “peple are ging t be mre afraid t put their hands n the cell phne.”
28. Which f the fllwing best describes the ban n drivers’ texting in the US?
A. Ineffective.B. Unnecessary.C. Incnsistent.D. Unfair.
29. What can the Textalyzer help a plice fficer find ut?
A. Where a driver came frm.B. Whether a driver used their phne.
C. Hw fast a driver was ging.D. When a driver arrived at the scene.
30. What des the underlined wrd “smething” in the last paragraph refer t?
A. Advice.B. Data.C. Tests.D. Laws.
31. What is a suitable title fr the text?
A. T Drive r Nt t Drive? Think Befre Yu Start
B. Texting and Driving? Watch Out fr the Textalyzer
C. New Yrk Banning Hand-Held Devices by Drivers
D. The Next Generatin Cell Phne: The Textalyzer

D yu have skinny genes? And I’m nt talking abut the pants yu wre in cllege but can’t fit int anymre. N, skinny genes are factrs fund in flks wh are naturally thin. And researchers have just identified ne that appears t tell the bdy’s tissue t burn mre fat.
“We all knw these peple wh can eat whatever they want but never gain any weight.” Jsef Penninger is a geneticist at the University f British Clumbia. He says that individuals wh are effrtlessly thin may hld the key t understanding besity. See, scientists interested in learning hw we cntrl ur weight have traditinally fcused n the things that make yu fat, like diet r metablism（新陈代谢）. “But nt really studied why peple actually stay skinny. S we thught we’d just turn arund the fields and study genetics f thinness.”
Penninger and his clleagues started ut by searching a database maintained by a genme center in Estnia fr its mst thin registrants. And they weeded ut peple wh were listed as having anrexia（厌食症）r ther cnditins that change bdy fat. Then they lked fr genetic markers that track with these Skinny Petes.
One gene, in particular, caught their eye: ALK, r the gene fr anaplastic lymphma kinase, is a stretch f DNA whse mutant（突变体）frm has been assciated with human cancers.
“But its nrmal functin had never been established.” S the scientists made mutant fruit flies and mutant mice.” T really shw that the gene assciated with thinness in humans als makes flies and mice skinny. And that’s exactly what we fund.” But the mutant gene desn’t cause the animals t eat less. “We fund that ALK acts in ur brains and what it des: it allws ur bdy t burn mre calries the same fd we eat.” S the brain tells fat cells t burn mre f the fat they have scked away.
“Peple, mice and, we believe, als flies stay skinny. S this mechanism（（生物体内的）机制）is evlutinarily cnserved frm insects t humans and, we believe, pens up an entirely new field f thinness.” There are already drugs that prevent the cancer-causing frm f ALK, which means that ALK is what scientists call a druggable target. “S maybe ne day we can indeed develp a pill which keeps us thin.”
32. What did the previus study fcus n?
A. Skinny genes. B. Subjects’ daily rutines.
C. Family members’ influence. D. Factrs cntributing t being fat.
33. What des the underlined phrase mean in Para.4?
A. Included. B. Cunted C. Cmpared. D. Remved.
34. What d we knw abut ALK frm the passage?
A. It is a gene t burn fat. C. It dminates cancer drugs.
B. It is unique t wild creatures. D. It makes the carriers eat less.
35. What is the researchers’ attitude twards the new directin f the study?
A. Optimistic. B. Cnservative. C. Dubtful. D. Hpeless.
