B The streets of London are infamously colorful, and even more so now that some local authorities have decided to dress up pedestrian crossings in colors or other equally bright designs. Some of these “colorful crossings” are created by councils around the UK with more than just aesthetics(美学) in mind, focusing instead on preventing pedestrian casualties(伤亡人员). Two cities in England that have just finished a pilot experiment are Liverpool and Hull. Before the experiment, the former had 99 adult pedestrian deaths or serious injuries per 100，000 people in 2019, making it the worst place in the UK that year, while in Hull 44 pedestrian casualties per 100，000 people were recorded. “We call these colorful crossings a push because in an urban environment, pedestrians have a choice about where they cross the road，” says Dr Holly Hope Smith, the consultant working on the two trials. “We're trying to enhance a crossing that's already there so that people are more likely to use it.” While Dr Holly Hope Smith said that there had been little in terms of international research into colorful crossings, in 2004, research from Australian academics concluded that colored surfaces of crossings had a positive effect on pedestrian safety with regard to the number of crashes and the severity of injuries suffered by pedestrians. They recommended that they be applied in “busy” and “complex” pedestrian environments. More recently, a 2017 report by Better Bankside about artwork employed at crossings in London's Southwark Street said, “Our work did make respondents use the crossing more, and 68% told us that the artwork made them experience more pleasure.” Yet, bright colors aren't for everyone. People suffering from autism(自闭症) have raised concerns over the nature of having several colors on a road, while guide dog owners have reported their assistance dogs being confused by the new road designs. “Colorful crossings can be really misleading for people with low vision and their guide dogs，” says Dr Amy Kavanagh, a blind activist and campaigner. But Holly Hope Smith doesn't agree. “These crossings are placed to enhance existing pedestrian crossings. All the signals that are there for visually disadvantaged road users remain—the touch sensors, the audio signals for when the crossing is on—we haven't touched them，” she says. (　　) 4. What do the figures in Paragraph 2 show? A. Liverpool and Hull should try to improve their traffic system. B. The populations of Liverpool and Hull had a significant decline. C. Pedestrians in Liverpool and Hull suffered from road accidents. D. The experiment in Liverpool and Hull was limited by many factors. (　　) 5. What does Dr Holly Hope Smith try to do using colorful crossings? A. To comfort people suffering from autism. B. To offer pedestrians more traveling choices. C. To arouse people's traffic safety awareness. D. To encourage people to use crossings more. (　　) 6. What can we learn about colorful crossings around the UK? A. They have met with conflicting opinions. B. They have been supported by dog owners. C. They need to be improved further by designers. D. They have effectively reduced pedestrian casualties. (　　) 7. What is the best title for the text? A. Can Colorful Crossings Give Us More Pleasure? B. Will Colorful Crossings Make Our Streets Safer? C. Why Are Colorful Crossings Used Around the UK? D. How Can Colorful Crossings Influence Pedestrians? Ⅲ. 语法填空。[2025金华一模改编] Traveling to China as a foreigner isn't the simplest affair.
