12．There are many differences between America and China．The biggest difference is traffic rules．In America there are too much more cars than in China．But there are much fewer traffic jams and accidents in America than in China．We hardly see traffic police in the street，but all cars obey strictly traffic rules，and people hardly find that a car does not obey traffic rules in the street．About American traffic rules，there are many better terms，such as：
1．Stop line：There are stop lines in all crossing without traffic light （some have two stop lines and others have four stop lines）．All cars must stop while meeting the stop line．
2．Traffic light：There is traffic light in the crossing of the road．Cars may almost turn every direction．The traffic light can give signal step by step including u-turn．There is a kind of middle lane of turning left．When a car wants to turn left in the road，he may enter into the middle lane of turning left and give a signal of turning left．When he thinks being safe，he may turn left．In many conditions the order of passing is also given very specifically．If people want to change lane or turn，they must look behind and think being safe．Only so，they may do it．
3．Specific item：Such as parking，there are three kinds of lines （their colors are white，blue or red） in the roadside．Every line may park different kinds of cars．There are many streets in some residential areas （住宅区），and there is a kind of rule that any car cannot park at any time or any period time．In every parking，there are some special positions for invalid （伤残的） people．
4．About the priority of passenger and car：At any case，passengers have the priority to cars．And only after passengers have passed the road and got the top of sidestep，cars may go ahead．

点评 做阅读时经常犯错的主要原因是，仅凭读过文章后残留在脑海中的一丝印象来勾选答案，这样便很容易掉入出题人故意设布下的题目陷阱．所谓阅读理解，对于题目的理解一定要忠实于原文，因此，每一道题都应该与原文作全面的对比与核查，再得出答案．也就是说，阅读理解的每一道题目，在原文都应该有明确的出处，我们把这一出处叫做原文相关句，（1）排除与原文相关句主题不一致的选项（2）排除与原文相关句态度相反的选项 （3）排除用于过于极端或负面的选项（4）注意结合文章主旨和主题去排除．
