Question

(B)

Every day in China, about 200 million children go to school. Many of them take school buses. What should we do to keep these students safe on the road?

On April 5, the State Council (國務院) published new rules about school bus safety. These new rules are much stricter than the old ones.

Under the new rules, local governments must make sure that students attend nearby schools or boarding (寄宿的) schools to reduce traffic risks. Also, local governments must help kids in the countryside reach their school buses.

From now on, school buses have a speed limit of 80km per hour on highways and 60km per hour on normal roads. While on the road, other cars must let school buses go first.

The new rules also say that school buses must never be overloaded (超載的). They have a speed limit of 80 km per hour on highways and 60 km per hour on normal roads.

There are many other rules as well. A school bus must have more than seven seats. On each bus, there must be at least one adult to keep an eye on the kids. Each school bus must have a fire extinguisher (滅火器), a first aid box and a GPS.

Last year, a series of school bus accidents happened in China. To stop such accidents, the Central Government decided to strengthen the rules for school buses.

The most serious accident happened in November in Gansu, when a nine-seat minibus crashed. There were 62 children inside, and 21 of them died.

【解析】

試題分析：在中國，每天約有200萬兒童上學。他們中的許多人乘校車。在4月5日，國務院公布了關(guān)于校車安全的新規(guī)則。這些新規(guī)則比舊的要嚴格得多。在新規(guī)則下，地方政府必須確保學生就讀附近的學校或寄宿制學校，減少交通風險。還有許多其他的規(guī)則。校車必須有超過七席。每條總線上，必須有至少一個成年孩子留意。每個校車必須有一個滅火器，急救箱和GPS。去年，一系列的校車事故發(fā)生在中國。要停止這樣的意外，中央政府決定加強校車的規(guī)則。最嚴重的事故發(fā)生在11月在甘肅，九座小巴士墜毀。里面有62名兒童，其中21人死亡。

考點：新聞報道類的短文閱讀

點評：此題考查的內(nèi)容廣泛，既有對語句的理解，還有對短文標題的推測，對這類題目把握難度稍大，這就要求對整篇文章有較深的理解，因此要對文章多讀兩遍，把握好每個小細節(jié)，讀懂文章后作出正確選擇。
