13.Any car accident is frightening,but an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water,with you trapped inside,is absolutely terrifying.(32)DHowever,most deaths result from panic,without a plan or understanding what is happening to the car in the water.By adopting a brace position (防冲击姿势),acting decisively and getting out fast,you can save yo urself from a sinking vehicle.Brace yourself for impact.As soon as you're aware that you're going off the road and into a body of water,adopt a brace position.The impact could set off the airbag system in your vehicle,so you should place both hands on the steering wheel in the"ten and two"position.
Undo your seatbelt.(33)FUnbuckle the children,starting with the oldest first.Forget the cellphone call.Your car isn't going to wait for you to make the call.(34)ALeave the door alone at this stage and concentrate on the window.A car's electrical system should work for up to three minutes in water,so try the method of opening it electronically first.Many people don't think about the window as an escape option either because of panic or misinformation about doors and sinking.
Break the window.If you aren't able to open the window,or it only opens halfway,you'll need to break it with an object or your foot.It may feel counter-intuitive (有悖常理的) to let water into the car.(35)GEscape when the car has equalized.If it has reached the dramatic stage where the car cabin has been filled with water and it has become balanced,you must move quickly and effectively to ensure your survival.(36)CWhile there is still air in the car,take slow,deep breaths and focus on what you're doing.
A.Open the window as soon as you hit the water.
B.Surviving a sinking car is not as difficult as you think.
C.It takes 60 to 120 seconds for a car to fill up with water usually.
D.Such accidents are particularly dangerous due to the risk of drowning.
E.In conclusion,if you know what to do in the water,you'll be safe.
F.This is the first thing to attend to,yet it often gets forgotten in the panic.
G.But the sooner the window is open,the sooner you can escape directly through it.
分析 汽车沉入水中的交通事故是可怕的,大多数溺亡是由于惊慌失措,不知道在水中该去做什么而造成的.采取支撑姿势避免冲击力,坚定地想办法从窗口逃生,从车中快速移动出来,就能在下沉的车中生存下来.
解答 32.D 从前面的句子:but an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water,with you trapped inside,is absolutely terrifying.可知这样的事故特别危险,容易淹死.选D
33:F 从前面的句子:Undo your seatbelt.松开安全带与F项中的This is the first thing to attend to相对应,可知当汽车掉进水里的时候,首先要解开安全带,但是在惊慌的时候,人们经常会忘记这一点,选F
34:A 从后面的句子:Leave the door alone at this stage and concentrate on the window.可知要尽快打开窗户,这与A项相对应.选A
35:G 首先空格前句与空格处为转折关系,本段仍旧围绕"window进行阐述,G项表达的意思是打开窗户逃生,与本段主旨一致,选G
36:C 空前的"the car cabin has been filled with water"与C项中的"fill up with water"对应,C项所表达的意思也与空格后的"While there is still air in the car,take slow,deep breaths and focus on what you're doing."相关联,意思是车内充满水大约需要60到120秒的时间,故选C
