智课网TOEFL备考资料开车时打手机必须用免提一托福阅读机经背景 Next week California will try to wrest cell phones from the hands of drivers, telling everyone from movie starlets and dot-com millionaires to surfers and soccer moms that conversations behind the wheel must be on a headset. Several U.S. states and some two dozen countries around the world already have restrictions on mobile phones while driving but now such a law has come to California - where the car is king and much of life is spent on the famously snarledfreeways. Californians interviewed mostly supported the law requiring hands-free phones in cars and outlawing cell phones entirely for drivers under 18, which takes effect on Tuesday. Others cast a jaundiced eye on lawmakers, who they blame for failing to build more freeways or public transportation in the face of increasingly gridlocked roads in the nations most populous state and say hands-free conversations are no safer. I cant believe that (Californians) will put up with all these nanny, nit-picking laws, KFI-AM radio talk-show host John Kobylt said. Its stupid because weve gone over about seven different studies and each one of them says its the conversation that distracts you, not holding the phone, he said. 美国加利福尼亚州将从下周起禁止人们开车时用手接打手机，无论你是电影明星、互联网富翁，还是冲浪高手或者“足球妈妈”，以后开车时如需打手机必须戴上耳机。 美国几个州及全世界约20个国家已颁布过开车时禁打手机的法令，而如今这一法令将在“汽车主导生活”的加州开始实行，加州人日常生活的很大一部分都是在拥堵的高速路上度过的。 该法令将于本周二生效，它要求人们开车时打手机必须使用免提功能，并规定未满18岁的驾车者开车时不得使用手机，多数接受采访的加州人对此表示支持。 另有一些人则对立法机关表示不满，他们责怪政府没有多修建一些高速公路或公共交通设施来缓解这一人口最多的州所面临的日益严重的交通拥堵问题，他们还认为用免提功能通话并不能提高驾驶安全。 KFI-AM广播谈话节目主持人约翰科比尔特说：“我无法相信(加州人)会容忍这些如此苛刻的法律。” 他说：“这个法案毫无意义。我们对七个不同的研究进行了分析，每项研究都表明让人分神的是谈话本身，而不是手持电话。” 相关推荐： 姚明“奥运床”将被拍卖一托福阅
