2017公共英語(yǔ)考試已開(kāi)始復(fù)習(xí),為了幫助廣大考生能順利通過(guò)2017公共英語(yǔ)考試,以下是yjbys網(wǎng)小編整理的關(guān)于PETS-4級(jí)閱讀備考練習(xí)題,供大家練習(xí)。
More than 30,000 drivers and passengers who sit in the front of the vehicles are killed or seriously injured each year. At a speed of only 30 miles per hour it is the same as falling from a third-floor building. Wearing a seat belt saves lives:it reduces your chance of death or serious injury by more than a half.
Therefore drivers or front seat passengers over 14 in most vehicles must wear a seat belt. If you do not, you will be fined up to —— 50. It will not be up to the drivers to make sure you wear your belt. But it will be the driver's responsibility, to make sure that children under 14 do not ride in the front unless they are wearing a seat belt of some kind.
However, when you're reversing your car, you do not have to wear a seat belt; or when you are making a local delivery or collection using a special vehicle; or if you have a valid medical certificate which excuses you from wearing it. Make sure these circumstances apply to you before you decide not to wear your seat belt. Remember that you may be taken to court for not doing so, and you may be fined if you cannot prove that you have been excused from wearing it.

參考譯文
每年都有3萬(wàn)多名司機(jī)或坐在前排的乘客喪命或受重傷。在時(shí)速只有30英里時(shí)也相當(dāng)于從一幢3層樓的建筑物上跌下。系安全帶可以挽救生命:它可使喪生或受重傷的幾率減少大半。
所以大多數(shù)交通工具中的司機(jī)和超過(guò)l4歲的前排乘客必須系安全帶。如果你不系,你會(huì)被處以最高50英鎊的罰款。司機(jī)沒(méi)有確保你系安全帶的責(zé)任。但是司機(jī)有責(zé)任確保14歲以下的兒童在車(chē)輛前排就座時(shí)系上安全帶之類(lèi)的東西。
但當(dāng)你倒車(chē),或者開(kāi)特殊車(chē)輛時(shí),如在當(dāng)?shù)厮拓浕蜃鍪占ぷ鲿r(shí),或者你有無(wú)須系安全帶的有效醫(yī)療證明時(shí),你無(wú)須系安全帶。在決定不系安全帶前要確定這些情況適用于你。記住你可能會(huì)因不系安全帶而被送上法庭,并且如果你不能證明自己有不系安全帶的理由你就會(huì)被罰款。
答案及解析
41.D【解析】more than=above“多于”;approximately=about “大約”。

43.B【解析】從第二段最后一句話可知:But it will be the driver,s re—sponsibility to make sure that children under l4 do not ride in thefront unless they are wearing a seat belt of,some kind。
