3、 阅读理解(5*2)
Should people be allowed to use cell phones while driving People have different opinions about it.
Alejandra Pachecho from Venezuela: No, because in this world some people drive very crazily. So most people who use cell phones to talk in the car usually pay more attention to what they are talking about than to driving. One of the reasons that I feel this way is that my friend had a car accident while using a cell phone. He lost his life and his friends did, too.
Rodrigo Cruz from Colombia: That depends. The advantages of using a cell phone while driving are you can call the police if there is a car accident, and call for help when somebody’s car breaks down. The disadvantage is that people get distracted(思想不集中) when they are driving at the same time they are talking on a cell phone. It can cause car accidents.
Pantium Wong from Hong Kong: Yes, if they use it correctly. Sometimes drivers are very dangerous when they are talking on a cell phone. They may not drive well if they use one hand to hold the phone and the other hand to drive. In this case, drivers should use a hand-free accessory to talk while driving. That is a safe way to use them while driving.
Ngoc-Ahn Thi Ho (Annie) from Vietnam: No. Cell phones are extremely popular among teenagers. One problem is that they talk on them while they are driving. Sometimes some of them aren’t careful and drive too fast. Talking on a cell phone while driving at high speed is very dangerous. They shouldn’t drive and talk on the phone at the same time because they can’t control the car and may cause accidents.
