passed in some american states to cut down on distracted(分心的)driving，many accidents and deaths were still related to it，especially using cellphones while driving.in recent days，the obama administration is considering disabling cellphones in cars, aiming to reduce cellphonerelated road deaths.transportation secretary ray lahood, the nations antidistracteddriving supporter，said in an interview on november 18 that federal officials are looking at technology to disable cellphones inside cars. “i think it will be done，” lahood said.“i think the technology is there and i think youre going to see the technology become adapt able in automobiles to disable these cellphones.we need to do a lot more if we were going to save lives.”also on thursday，the transportation government started a new “faces of distracted driving” video campaign that features(以为特征)people who have been killed or lost their loved ones because of inattentive drivers.the video features heartbreaking stories of children killed in crashes because of phoning or text messaging，and new videos are expected to be added every few weeks.a driver is four times more likely to crash while using a mobile phone.more than 5，500 people were killed last year by distracted drivers, and another 500，000 were injured. lahood has said it is never safe to talk on a cellphone while driving，handsfree or not，because it can really cause distraction.incidentally，a lot of people seem to agree with this viewpointa new research shows nearly twothirds of americans support a national ban on the use of cellphones while driving，even if the driver is using a handsfree device. but the research didnt ask how people feel about governmentissued mobile phone scramblers or other disabling devices.16the obama administration is considering

used if theyre freedthe writer is not sure whether disabling devices will be accepted by the driversblast nights meteor(流星)shower left many people in the community dissatisfied and demanding answers.according to gabe rothschild, emerald valleys mayor, people gathered in the suburbs of the city, carrying heavy telescopes, expecting to watch the brightly burning meteors passing through the sky.what they found instead was a sky so brightened by the citys lights that it darkened the light of the meteors passing overhead.“my family was so frustrated，” admitted town resident duane cosby.“we wanted to make this an unforgettable family outing, but it turned out to be a huge disappointment.”astronomersscientists who study stars and planetshave been complaining about this problem for decades.they say that light pollution prevents them from seeing objects in the sky that they could see quite easily in the past.they call on people and the government to take measures to fight against it.there is yet a population besides professional and amateur star observers that suffers even more from light pollution. this population consists of birds, bats, frogs，snakes，etc.for example, outdoor lighting severely affects migrating (迁徙的)birds.according to the international darksky association，“100 million birds a year throughout north america die in crashes with lighted buildings and towers.”countless more animal casualties(伤亡) result from the use of artificial lighting.clearly，people enjoy the benefits of lighting their evenings, but some scientists think it can be harmful for humans，too.they worry that exposure to light while sleeping can increase a persons chances of getting cancer.emerald valley is only one community that is becoming aware of the negative effects of light pollution.for years, flagstaff, arizona, has enforced lighting regulations in its city in order to assist astronomers at the lowell observatory.similar efforts have been made worldwide, and a movement is underway to remind us to turn off lights when we are not using them, so that other creatures can share the night.21it happened last night that _athe citys lights affected the meteor
