It is all very well to blame traffic jams, the cost of petrol and the quick pace of modern life, but manners on the roads are becoming horrible. Everybody knows that the【C1】________men become monsters behind the wheel. You might tolerate the odd road-hog, the rude and【C2】________driver, but nowadays the well-mannered motorist is the exception to the rule. Perhaps the situation【C3】________a "Be Kind to Other Drivers" campaign,【C4】________it may get completely out of hand.
Road politeness is not only good manners, but good sense too. It takes the most cool-headed and good-tempered of drivers to【C5】________the temptation to revenge when subjected to uncivilized behavior. On the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way【C6】________relieving the tensions of motoring. A friendly nod or a wave of acknowledgement【C7】________an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of goodwill and tolerance so【C8】________in modern traffic conditions. But such acknowledgements of politeness are all too【C9】________today. Many drivers nowadays don’t even seem able to【C10】________politeness when they see it.
【C11】________, misplaced politeness can also be dangerous. Typical examples are the driver who brakes violently to【C12】________a car to emerge from a side street at some【C13】________to following traffic, when a few seconds later the road would be clear anyway; or the man who waves a child across a zebra crossing into the【C14】________of oncoming vehicles that may be unable to stop in time. The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they care to.
A【C15】________driver, whose manners are faultless, told me it would help【C16】________motorists learnt to filter correctly into traffic streams one at a time without causing the total blockages that give rise to bad temper.【C17】________, modern motorists can’t even learn to drive, let alone【C18】________the subtler aspects of roadsmanship. Years ago the experts warned us that the car-ownership【C19】________would demand a lot more give-and-take from all road users. It is【C20】________time for all of us to take this message to heart.
【C1】
选项
A、quickest
B、nicest
C、worst
D、strongest
答案
B
解析
文章首句提到,人们在公路上的举止正变得越来越可怕。可推测,这一句更进一步强调这一情形的恶化:即使是脾气最好的人,开起车来也变成了凶神恶煞,选B项nicest“脾气最好的”,刚好与前面的所讲到的manners对应,很合句意逻辑。A项quickest“最快的”,指的是速度,与举止无关。C项worst“最差的”,与后面的become monsters(变成凶神恶煞)不对应,因为最差的人本身就是monsters,何来become?D项strongest“最强壮的”,也与manners没有关系。
