    　　In Britain you're allowed to drive a car when you're seventeen. You have to get a special two-year driving license before you can start. When you're learning, someone with a full license always has to be in the car with you because you aren't allowed to drive the car on the road alone. You don't have to go to a driving school. A friend can teach you. The person with you isn't allowed to take money for the lesson unless he's got a teacher's license.

    　　Before you're allowed to have a full license, you have to take a driving test. You can take a test in your own car, but it has to be fit for the road. In the test you have to drive around for about half an hour and then answer a few questions. If you don't pass the test, you're allowed to take it again a few weeks later if you want to. In 1970 a woman passed her fortieth test after 212 driving lessons. When you've passed your test you don't have to take it again, and you're allowed to go on driving as long as you like if you're healthy. Britain's oldest driver was a man who drove in 1974 at the age of 100.

    　　Before 1904 everyone was allowed to drive, even children. Then from 1904 car drivers had to have a license. But they didn't have to take a test until 1935. In the early days of car driving, before 1878, cars weren't allowed to go faster than four miles an hour, and someone had to lead the car with a red flag.

    (1) Which of the following is NOT necessary for a young man who wants to drive a car alone?

    [　　]

    A．He should pass a driving test to get a full license.

    B．He should learn to drive in a driving school.

    C．He should get a special two-year driving license.

    D．He should reach the age of 17.

    A．is given a special two-year driving license

    B．has a full license and a teacher's license

    C．has learned to drive in a driving school

    D．has a full driving license

    [　　]

    A．must drive around for more than one hour

    B．has to be examined only in car driving skills

    C．is usually asked to drive on roads for some time

    D．can't drive his own car

    [　　]

    A．One can take a driving test again until he passes it.

    B．A car driver didn't have to get a license until 1935.

    C．There was a speed limit to cars before 1878.

    D．There is no limit to the age of a man who drives a car.

    C．woman
    D．child

    答案：B;B;C;B;D

    整体把握：在英国开车也需要通过考试，但那里有我们这里的驾驶学校吗？教他／她学车的人向他／她收费吗？考试过程是怎样的？本文会告诉你有关这些问题的答案。

    (1) 点拨：根据原文中的You don't have to go to a driving school.
