16．Tudor Cobalas nearly crashed his car while driving and texting on his phone．It was this near-death experience that inspired him to turn the smartphone from a weapon of mass distraction into a tool for safer driving．
Mr．Cobalas developed Safe Drive，an app that rewards drivers for ignoring their phones while driving．Once a driver drives too fast，the app launches a"Release"button on the screen，effectively locking the phone．Driving without checking the phone generates scores that can be turned into shopping discounts in the Safe Drive Marketplace．
It's a simple idea that has attracted nearly 100，000 users globally and 30 commercial partners．Worldwide，about 1.25million people die each year as a result of road traffic accidents，according to the World Health Organization．"Smartphone distraction"is blamed for an increasing number of accidents．Drivers using a mobile phone are four times more likely to be involved in a crash．Many parents also want to educate their children，young drivers．That is why a growing number of technology businessmen are trying to handle the problem．
"Although smartphones are rightly blamed for an increase in distracted driving，we wanted to show that smartphones could be used to make drivers better，"says Hari Balakrishnan，chief technology officer of Cambridge Mobile Telematics，a US company that has developed an app called Drive Well．
The app measures all aspects of driving such as hard braking，abrupt acceleration，sharp cornering and speeding．But it also monitors how often drivers are distracted by their phones and generates a"safety score"at the end of each trip．The free app features competition leader boards that enable drivers to compete with their friends，family and colleagues，as well as personalized safer driving tips．Good safety scores can earn drivers discounts on car insurance，Mr．Balakrishnan says．
Last year the company started a competition to find Boston's safest driver．Nearly 5，000 people have signed up，and 98 have been awarded more than 3，400 in prizes．Data from 40，000 Drive Well app users around the world present its effectiveness，says Mr．Madden．

14．As is often the case，when people are attending to meetings，having meals or waiting for buses，you can always find them addicting to their phones，completely ignoring others．
This is really a common phenomena in our life．The reason is why smart phones nowadays can be used for people to play mobile games and kept in touch with friends through QQ and WeChat．Therefore，too much exposure to phones are bad for people in terms of health．Moreover，people involved in phones fail to communicate well with these around them．
As far as I am concerned，people should wisely make use of their phones to help their work and study．Meanwhile，care much about their family and friends rather than mobile phones．

3．More than four million people around the world are bitten by snakes each year．At least 125，000 of these people die，while almost three million others are seriously injured．Doctors and researchers say we do not have enough good treatments for poisonous snakebites．To help improve the situation，an international project called the Global Snakebite Initiative （GSI） has been formed．
Poisonous snakebites are most common in rural areas of developing countries with hot climates．Many of the victims are agricultural workers and children in Asia and Southern Africa．Shortages of antivenom medicine，the treatment for snakebite，are common there，while existing supplies may be of low quality，or inappropriate to local needs．
Doctor Herbert Winkel of GSI says antivenom treatment is also too costly for many of the poor people who need it most．The Initiative is trying to increase the availability of high quality antivenom treatment and improve medical training．Another goal is to help manufacturers of antivenom medicines improve their products，while also teach communities about snakebites and first aid．It wants more research and better reporting systems，and aims to help national health officials choose antivenom appropriate for their countries．
The drugs are developed from the venom of poisonous snakes．For example，laboratory workers in Costa Rica may collect venom（毒液）from highly poisonous Fer de Lance snakes in order to make antivenom for the snake's bite．However，the antivenom that cures the bite of one kind of snake may not be effective for that of another，and treatment for a cobra bite in the Philippines may not work for someone bitten by a similar snake in West Africa．
Experts look forward to improvements in the worldwide treatment of snakebite，but say that the best ways to reduce deaths and injuries from snakebites are education and prevention．

A．The work GSI is doing to improve snakebite treatment．
B．How to tell poisonous snakes from common ones．
C．How to treat the snakebites on the spot．
D．The present situation of snakebite treatment in poor countries．
34．Which of the following functions are performed by the GSI？C
a．Helping to improve the ability to produce antivenom medicine．
b．Telling people how to use antivenom medicine properly．
c．Teaching about snakebites and first aid．

A．abc B．acd C．bcd D．abd
35．Which of the following is NOT true about poisonous snakebites？B
A．The venom of poisonous snakes can be used to cure their bites．
B．They are not very common in countries with hot climates．
C．The existing treatment of them is unsatisfactory．
D．Poor people usually cannot afford snakebite treatment．
