Women drivers are more likely to be involved in an accident, according to scientists.
Researchers【C1】______ 6.5 million car crashes and found a higher than expected number of accidents between two female drivers. They also discovered that women have a【C2】______time negotiating crossroads, T-junctions and slip roads. The results are even more【C3】______given that men spend more time【C4】______than women. On average, men drive 60 percent of the time, and women 40 percent.
Michael Sivak, of the University of Michigan, said: " The results【C5】______that in certain crash situations, male-to-male crashes tend to be under-represented and【C6】______crashes tend to be over-represented. "
Dr. Sivak and his colleague Brandon Schoettle studied data from a nationally【C7】______sample of police-reported crashes in the US from 1988 to 2007. They【C8】______ to find that accidents involving two male drivers would make up 36.2 percent of all crashes, while female-female accidents would【C9】______15.8 percent and male-female 48 percent. 【C10】______, they discovered that accidents involving two women drivers were 20.5 percent, while male-male crashes were【C11】______ at 31.9 percent. Accidents involving male and female drivers【C12】______at 47.6 percent, as expected.
The scientists also found that women were more likely than men to crash at a(n)【C13】______, and their cars were often【C14】______on the left-hand side when trying to make a【C15】______ turn, and vice versa. Dr. Sivak said this【C16】 ______be due to height difference【C17】______ the sexes.
He said:" There are three【C18】______driver-related factors, including the【C19】______ of being at the wrong place at the wrong time, one’s own driving skills and the driving skills of【C20】______driver involved. "

选项
A、make for
B、account for
C、apply for
D、consist in
答案
B
解析
动词短语辨析题。根据前半句的含义.此处所填短语应和make up“构成,组成”的意思相近,选项中只有[B]account for可以表示“(在数量,比例方面)占……”,符合文意要求.故为答案。[A]make for“向……方向前进;促进”、[C]apply for“申请;适用”和[D]consist in“存在于”,这三项均不符合文意,故排除。

A、 B、 C、 B因为题干问的是如何回家,所以用交通手段subway作答的(B)是正确答案。询问时间的时候可以用(A)来回答,所以不适合成为本题的答案。如果问的是在家里干什么,则可以用(C)来回答。
