Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1A recent study led by
11、 researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) has found a clear link between the color of a taxi and its accident rate. An analysis of 32 months of detailed taxi, driver and accident data from two fleets of yellow and blue taxis in Singapore suggested that yellow taxis have fewer acci
12、dents than blue taxis. The higher visibility (能见度) of yellow makes it less difficult for drivers to avoid getting into accidents with yellow taxis, leading to a lower accident rate.The study was led by Prof Ho. To test whether there was a relationship between the color of a taxi and the number of ac
13、cidents the taxi had, the research team analysed data collected by the largest taxi company in Singapore. The researchers found that yellow taxis have about 2. 1 fewer accidents per 1,000 taxis per month.They also studied the economic effect of changing the color of the entire fleet of taxis to yell
14、ow. The Singapore taxi company involved in the study owns about 12,300 taxis in a ratio(比例) of one yellow to three blue taxis. If a commercial decision is made to switch from blue to yellow taxis, 32.2 fewer accidents will occur per month or 913 fewer accidents per year.Assuming an average repair co
15、st of $1,000 per car and a downtime of six days, the color of all taxis to yellow could produce an annual saving of $ 2 million.“We are eager to continue to validate (证实) the findings of our study by looking at the use of yellow in other types of public transport, such as school buses. For example, we hope to compare the accident rates of yellow school buses against those of other colors to find out if yellow is indeed a safer color for school buses. Besides
