Shylock held his knife and told Antonio to get ready.
“Wait!” exclaimed Portia. “You will not do anything that is not written in the contract(合同). Is that right, Shylock?”
“Yes, that’s right,” said Shylock. He wondered what the wise young judge was going to say.
“Well,” said the young judge, “I have read the contract carefully, and it does not say anything about taking his blood. It says ‘a pound of flesh’. You can take your pound of flesh, but you may not take one drop of his blood. If you take any of his blood, the duke(公爵)will take everything you own!”
Now it was Graziano’s turn to bless the judge and call him wise.
“Did you hear that, Shylock ?” he asked, “What a wise judge.”
“You wanted justice(公正),” Portia told Shylock, “and you will have more justice than you wanted.”
Shylock didn’t want to give everything he owned to the duke. He decided not to take his pound of flesh. He said he would take the money.
“Give me ninety thousand dollars,” he said, “and I will have mercy on the Merchant(商人)and let him go.”
Bassanio was happy to give him the money. He was very pleased that his friend Antonio would not die.
Portia, however, had more to say, “Wait!” she said again. “He does not want the money. It is not written in the contract, and he said he would not do anything that was not written in the contract. Shylock, you can take your pound of flesh, just as the contact says. Why are you waiting?” she asked.
Shylock said he just wanted to have his money back. “Just give me the money I lend you. I wouldn’t even ask for interest(利息).” he said. He was beginning to feel sick. Bassanio was ready to give it to him, but again Portia stopped him.

27、Last year in the UK at least 45 people died and 900 more were injured (受伤的) in car accidents where drivers were using their mobile phones.Yet many people continue to use them while driving even though it’s dangerous.
Research has shown that it is difficult to concentrate on (专注于) driving and talking at the same time.It can even be more dangerous than driving after drinking too much. A recent study found that when drivers were talking on their mobile phones,their stopping times were 30 percent slower than when they had drunk too much—and nearly 50 percent slower than when they were driving normally. It also found that drivers talking on mobile phones were less able to control their cars than drunk drivers.
And talking isn’t even the most serious problem, but texting is. Unbelievably, another recent study reported that 22% of adults admitted (承认) they had sent a text message while driving at least once in the past month. An average (平均的) text message takes 90 seconds to write and send. That means for one and a half minutes a driver is looking at their phone’s screen and not at the road. The arrival of new smart phones such as the iPhone will only make things worse as they will allow users to do more things than ever before.
Using a mobile phone while driving puts others’ lives at risk. No matter how well we drive,if another driver is not careful,we are put in danger by their actions. Such drivers are selfish,careless and should have their driving licences (驾照) cancelled (撤销).
There is no doubt that mobile phones can be fun and are useful,especially when you’re in trouble.But there is no need to use them while driving. Just wait until you stop or you will probably get into trouble of your own.
【1】 The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 1 refers to _______.
A. phone users B. mobile phones
C. drivers D. ears
【2】According to the passage,if a driver needs 10 seconds to stop when driving normally, they will need _______ seconds to stop when talking on a mobile phone.
A. 12 B. 13 C.14 D. 15
【3】According to the passage,in what order do the following activities influence driving?
Dangerous→More dangerous→Most dangerous
A. drinking→talking on phone→texting
B. texting→talking on phone→drinking
C. talking on phone→drinking→texting
D. drinking→texting→talking on phone
【4】Why will new types of mobile phones make the driving problem worse?
A. It will take longer to send text messages.
B. People will want to talk on their phones more often.
C. There will be more things for people to do with their phones.
D. People think the new phones are easier and safer to use.
【5】According to the writer, what should be done to people who use mobile phones when driving?
A. They should be put into prison (监狱).
B. Their cars should be taken away.
C. Their phones should be taken from them.
D. They should not be allowed to drive any longer.
