[20:49.71]Section C
[20:51.47]Directions: In this section, you will hear a passage three times.
[20:57.06]When the passage is read for the first time,
[21:00.12]you should listen carefully for its general idea.
[21:03.18]When the passage is read for the second time,
[21:05.88]you are required to fill in the blanks numbered from 26 to 33
[21:11.45]with the exact words you have just heard.
[21:14.19]For blanks numbered from 34 to 36 you are required to fill in the missing information.
[21:21.18]For these blanks, You can either use the exact words you have just heard
[21:26.00]or write down the main points in your own words.
[21:29.61]Finally, when the passage is read for the third time,
[21:33.44]you should check what you have written.
[21:35.63]Now listen to the passage.
[21:37.71]Silver cars are much less likely to be involved in a serious crash than cars of other colours,
[21:46.57]suggests a new study of over 1 000 cars.
[21:50.84]People driving in silver cars were 50 percent less likely to experience serious injury
[21:58.71]in a crash compared with drivers of white cars, the research in New Zealand found.
[22:04.51]White, yellow, grey, red and blue cars carried about the same risk of injury.
[22:12.38]But those taking to the roads in black, brown,
[22:16.11]or green cars were twice as likely to suffer a crash with serious injury.
[22:22.67]Sue Furness, at the University of Auckland,
[22:25.95]led the study but says the team does not know why silver cars appear safer.
[22:32.29]“We think it may be due to a combination of light color and high reflectivity,” she speculates.
[22:39.84]She suggests that increasing the proportion of silver cars on the road
[22:44.77]might provide a “passive strategy” to cut car crash injuries.
[22:50.56]“If there's proof that certain colors are safer and easier
[22:55.82]to see in all road conditions,
[22:58.44]that might be useful to people in terms of purchasing a car,” says Roger Vincent.
[23:04.90]But he adds, “A lot of people will buy things purely on fashion.”
[23:09.82]In their study, Furness and her colleagues took into account the engine size,
[23:16.05]make and age of the car, as well as the sex, age,
[23:20.87]economic status of the drivers.
[23:23.71]They also controlled for road conditions and ambient light conditions.
[23:28.42]But Vincent says other factors could be important,
[23:32.47]such as the way people view different colors,
[23:35.97]how many miles the car has on the clock and the background being driven against.
[23:42.43]Now the passage will be read again.

[24:20.06]But those taking to the roads in black, brown,
[24:24.00]or green cars were twice as likely to suffer a crash with serious injury.

[26:04.18]But he adds, “A lot of people will buy things purely on fashion.”

[27:15.24]They also controlled for road conditions and ambient light conditions.

[28:24.94]Now the passage will be read for the third time.
