18．Nowadays women appear to have a positive image of themselves as safer drivers than men．
In a survey done for insurer MetLife，51% of women said they drive more safely．The evidence is on their side：Men are 3.4 times more likely than women to get a ticket for careless driving and 3.1 times as likely to be punished for drunk driving．"Women are on average less aggressive and more law abiding （守法的） drivers，which leads to fewer accidents，"the report says．However，not all male drivers share the same opinion．Of the men surveyed by MetLife，39% claimed male drivers were safer．The findings did back them up on one point：automotive knowledge．The report showed that more men are familiar with current safety equipment such as electronic stability control，which helps prevent rollover accidents．
Auto safety unavoidably matters to Money．Insurance companies focus on what classes of drivers have the lowest dollar amounts of claims，and for now，that mainly includes women．In general，women pay about 9% less for auto insurance than men．A study by the website Insweb also showed that auto insurance rates are lower for women in most states．Among individual states，women get the greatest advantage in Wyoming （where they pay 20% less），South Dakota and Washington，D．C．，where their insurance costs are 16% lower．
"More than 11，900 male drivers died in U．S．traffic accidents in 2009，compared with just under 4，900 women drivers，"according to the study．"Based on miles traveled，men died at a rate of 2.5 deaths per 100 million miles traveled，vs.1.7 deaths for women．"

12．It was August 10，2011．Diana Nyad was dozens of miles into her dream to complete a 103-mile swim from Cuba to Key West．Because of the currents in the Florida Straits，Nyad would have to last 60hours-if everything went perfectly．
For two years，this dream of swimming from Cuba to Florida had been part of her every waking hour．She was about to turn 60．"I wanted to be filled with commitment to the best of myself so that 1wasn't looking back later saying，'What have I done with my life？'''says Nyad．
Those extreme physical struggles are not new to her．In 1974，25-year-old Nyad became the first person to swim across Lake Ontario against the current．A year later，Nyad's 28-mile swim around the island of Manhattan made the front page of the New York Times．
"Physically，I'm stronger．I weigh a lot more，"Nyad said after a training swim in Key West in June．"There are also mental advantages to being older，"says Steven Munatones，an expert in swimming．
Feeling a sharp pain in her right shoulder，she changed the angle of stroke （划），telling herself to go gently until her hand caught the water．In the 17th hour，she swam over to the boat，and the crew located a pain reliever．Nyad took it．She lay on her back，rolled onto her belly and continued swimming，and then she'd turn on her back again，gasping，unable to fill her lungs．"I'm trying to make it．I'm barely going forward．I feel so sick．This has been my dream forever，but I can hardly make it another hour，"Nyad told David Marchant，the boat's navigator （领航员）．Between the 23rd and 27th hours，Nyad had gone just five miles．"OK，Diana，I'm going to touch you，and it's going to be over，"Stoll said．Nyad agreed．And with that，29hours and 43minutes after she'd leaped into the water，the swim came to an end．
"She just wouldn't quit．It was more amazing to see her not make it the way she fought than if everything had gone exactly right and she'd made it the whole way，"says Mark Sollinger，who piloted Nyad's lead boat．
At a press．conference in Key West after being pulled onto the support boat，Nyad choked back tears and said，"Sometimes the will is so strong．But I was shaking and freezing，and I thought，'There's no mind over matter anymore．'I think I'm going to have to go to my grave without swimming from Cuba to Florida．"
But when Nyad returned home to Los Angeles，the pain began to fade．"Something says to me the goal is still there，"says Nyad．

17．There are thousands of coral reefs（珊瑚礁） in the world； Unfortunately，however，they are now in serious danger．More than one-third are in such bad shape that they could die within ten years．（36）BHere are the three main causes discovered．
The first cause is pollution on land．The pollutants run with rainwater into rivers and streams，which carry the poisons into the ocean．（37）ESo they will be easily infected（感染） with diseases．
   （38）AHigher ocean temperatures kill the important food source（来源） for the coral-the algae，the tiny greenish-gold water plants that live on coral．（39）GThis process has happened more and more frequently in recent years．
The last factor contributing to the disappearance of coral reefs is people．People sometimes crash into reefs with their boats，breaking off large blocks of coral．（40）CMoreover，some people even break coral off to collect for souvenirs since it is so colorful and pretty．
 
A．Global warming is another reason．
B．Many might not even last that long!
