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 (守法旳) 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. ”‎ ‎16.

Should good sportsmanship, then, be taught in school? Critics do not think so. 20 Presented here are the most important benefits of teaching sportsmanship. ‎ Teaching good sportsmanship and having a positive attitude in activities like sports, class elections, and science fair competitions are critical to success in school. 21 Acting calmly under pressure helps young adults succeed not only in sports but also in life. ‎ ‎22 A person cannot play by the rules if he or she does not understand what the rules are. Knowing the rules also applies to other activities. If students enter a science fair competition, for example, they must follow the guidelines. Those who know the rules are much more likely to succeed. When students learn sportsmanship, they discover, how knowing the rules relate to achievement. ‎ Good players become skilled at handling responsibility. When people accept responsibility, they achieve their best. Positive thinkers, moreover, influence others, especially those who are struggling with a problem. A gifted basketball player, for example, might teach skills to a less-talented player. Helping others raise the performance of the entire team. The team, consequently, could reach new heights and set new records. 23 Those who do not practice sportsmanship pass off responsibility. For them, if an opportunity is lost, it is someone else’s fault. When students participate in a team, they benefit by learning to accept responsibility, encourage others and own up to mistakes. ‎ Sportsmanship is a winning idea. It must be taught in school. Students need direction to become good sportsmen. Students will be responsible for their own actions and will have a positive influence on others. As students enter the workforce, businesses benefit. The community also benefits because these students will someday become leaders. 24 ‎ A. We need to educate students about how sportsmanship pays off for everyone. ‎ B. However, the stronger argument favors teaching good sportsmanship. ‎ C. Sports help young adults learn how to team up with others. ‎ D. Good sportsmanship also means admitting mistakes. ‎ E. Activities involving winning or losing can be tense. ‎ F. It is natural that players should be eager to win. ‎ G. Good team players know the rules of the game. ‎ 答案解析 20~24.
