  Passage one

  Now York’s WCBS puts it in a way that just can’t be better expressed: “It was an accident waiting to happen”.

  15-year-old Alexa Longueira was wandering along the street in Staten Island, obliviously tapping text message into her phone as she walked. Distracted by her phone, she failed to notice the open manhole (下水道窨井) in her path, and plunged into it, taking an unprepared bath of raw sewage along with receiving moderate injuries. Longueira called the dive “really gross, shocking and scary.”

  It’s not all Longueira’s fault. The manhole shouldn’t have been left uncovered and unattended, and no warning signs or hazard cones had been set Protection (DEP), who was preparing to flush the sewage, helped her out, and the department later issued a formal&nbs, p;apology for the incident.

  Nonetheless, observers are harshly divided over who is to blame here. The DEP is certainly at fault for failing t secure the manhole, but to what extent should the girl be held accountable for failure to be aware of her surroundings? If she had stepped into traffic and been hit by a car, would her reaction (that is: anger and a potential lawsuit) be any different?

  Detachment from one’s environment due to electronic gadgets is a growing problem-and a hazardous one. The government is even trying to get involved, with multiple laws on the books across the country outlawing cell phone use and text messaging while operating a motor vehicle in the wake of serious accidents involving distracted drivers. New York Senator Kruger even tried to criminalize the use of handheld devices (including phones, music players, and game players) by pedestrians while they are crossing streets in major New York cities, due to concerns over the number of auto vs. pedestrian accidents.

  Following a substantial outcry, that legislation appears never to have been formally introduced. But did Kruger have a point?

  What interested me, at least, is the end of the story above that Longueira lost a shoe in the sewage. But since other things are not reported as lost, I’m guessing she appears to have managed to keep her grip on her phone during the accident.

  31. By “It was an accident waiting to happen”, New York’s WCBS meant that .

  A. the accident should have been avoidable

  B. this kind of accidents happen frequently

  C. somebody was glad to see what would happen

  D. an open manhole is sure a trap for careless pedestrians

  32. When the girl fell into the open manhole, she .

  A. was seriously hurt B. was frightened

  C. took a bath in the raw sewage D. cried help to the DEP worker

  33. According to the author, who was to blame for the accident?

  A. The girl herself B. The DEP worker

  C. Both of them D. Nobody

  34. According to the passage, which of the following is illegal in the U.S.?

  A. Talking on a cell phone while driving

  B. Text messaging while walking across a street

  C. Operating music players while driving

  D. Operating game players while walking across a street

  35. The phrase “in the wake of” (Para.5) is closest in meaning to “ ”

  A. in view of B. on condition of

  C. as far as D. with regard to

  36. The author found it funny that the girl had .

  A. lost a shoe in the sewage in the accident
