写作方法与文章大意

文章论述“交通事故”，采用因果、对比手法。

从人的平均寿命增加和交通事故率成正比谈起，触及事故率上升的原因，要求制定更严格的法规予以制止种种造成事故的不良行为。

参考答案及解析

1.D只有更严格的交通法规才能制止交通事故。

这在最后一段的结论中体现的最清楚。

前面几段只是讲造成事故的种种原因。

其目的就是：

“是制定世界交通法规以减少无谓的生命浪费的时候了。

对于开车，有些国家的法规太松弛，甚至最严格的国家也不够严格。

世界公认之法律只可能对交通事故率起大大降低的作用（有非常好的效果。

）”这里列出几件要干的事：

“驾驶测试应当标准化，比现在的要严格;所有死机每三年考核一次;年轻人驾车的允许年龄应提高到21岁;全部机动车每年都应经过严格的安全测试（测定其安全性）……这些步骤可能听起来异常严厉，可是，如果其结果事减少每年死伤人数的话，就不存在什么太严格的事了。

”

A.主要是机动车死机造成的交通事故。

B.全世界每年有几千人丧生。

C.有些国家的交通法规太松弛。

这三道答案都是文中谈到某一点，不能作为中心目的。

2.D社会宽容这种野蛮开车行径。

答案就在第三段：

“令人惊讶的是社会对司机宽厚地笑笑，似乎宽容他们的行为。

一切都为他们的方便而干。

人们允许城市由于交通拥挤而几乎不能居住了，大型停车场把城镇“弄得”丑陋不堪，公路网玷污了乡村，每年大量的杀伤仅仅成为统计数字，被很容易地忘记。

”

A.社会对司机笑容可掬。

B.大型停车场建在市和镇上。

C.交通死难者等于零。

这三项都只是第三段的一个个具体事实。

社会正是通过这一件件事来宽容司机野蛮开车，而造成事故。

3.A“他的车就是他个性的外延”这句话就体现了“开车表现他真正的自我，真实的个性”。

第二段讲的很清楚：

“这么说完全正确：

当一个人坐在方向盘后，他的车就成为他个性的外延。

毫无疑问，汽车常常表现了人之最坏的品质。

平常很安详愉快的人一坐在方向盘后可能就变得难以认识。

他们咒骂、行为差劲、好斗、固执、任性得就像两岁的孩子。

他们所有隐藏的失落、失望和忌妒感，似乎都在开车中暴露出来”。

B.表现他个性的另一面。

C.表现了他的性格。

D.他的车体现了他的脾气秉性。

只是表现自我中的某个事实。

4.A只有建更多高速公路。

没有提。

B.更难的测试。

C.每三年对司机进行一次考察。

D.提高年龄段和制定安全条例。

都提到。

见第一题译注。

5.B批评的态度。

文章第一、二、三段指出了造成交通事故的原因，呼吁各国制定严格的交通法规，批评现有的交通法规松弛不严格，最后指出世界是人类的，不是摩托车的等等，都说明作者对上述种种都具批评的态度。

A.讽刺的。

C.哀求的、呼吁的。

D.富有战斗性的。
