A recent study offers a picture of how dangerous it is to get a lift from a teenage driver. Indeed, a 16-year-old driver with three or more passengers is three times as likely to have a fatal(致命的)accident as a teenager driving alone. However, the possibility of death for drivers between 30 and 59 decreases with each additional (added) passenger.
It was also found that the death rates for teenage drivers increased greatly after 10 p.m., and especially after midnight. With passengers in the car, the driver was even more likely to die in a late night accident.
Robert Foss, a scientist at the University of North Carolina Highway Safety Research Center, says the higher death rates for teenage drivers have less to do with “really stupid behavior” than with just a lack of driving experience. Both he and the author of the study believe that the way to help solve the problem is to have states setting up so-called graduated licensing systems(等級執(zhí)照制). A graduated license requires that a teenager first prove that he/she is able to drive in the presence of an adult, followed by a period of driving with a limited number of passengers, before graduating to full driving on his own. About half of the states now have some sort of graduated licensing system in place. The systems have reduced teenage driver crashes(相撞), according to recent studies.

In Europe many people died during the Second World War.As a result,at the end of the war there were many orphans(孤兒)there.A man called Hermann Gmeiner wanted to help these children.His idea was simple.He wanted orphans to have a home,and he wanted them to have the care and kindness of parents.Gmeiner asked people to give him some money.With this money he built the first SOS Children's Village at Imst,in Austria.It opened in 1949.This is how the SOS stand for“Save Our Souls(靈魂)”An SOS Children's Village gives help to orphans.
Hermann Gmeiner's idea for helping orphans soon spread(傳播)all over the world.By 1983 there were 170 SOS Children's Villages in the world.People in many countries give money to help the villages.Today the children from the first village have grown up.Now some of them work in other SOS Children's Villages.
In SOS Villages orphans live in family groups.There are several houses in each village.The biggest village has 40 or 50 houses!
