四、阅读短文，选出正确答案
“Click!” That's the sound of safety. That's the sound of survival(幸存). That's the sound of a seat belt locking in the right place. Seat belts save lives and that's a fact. That is why I must wear the seat belt at once when I get into the car. It's a choice between life and death. Which one do you choose?
Imagine you're in a car at 100 km per (每) hour or faster, and then the driver in the front of your car suddenly brakes(刹车). And your car has to stop suddenly. However, your body is still going at 100 km per hour. Will it be the windshield(挡风玻璃) or your seat belt to stop your body? So, every time you get into a car, choose the seat belt.
Some people think that seat belts are uncomfortable. If you are not wearing your seat belt, you can get in and out of your seat easily. However, when a car accident happens, you may get seriously hurt or even die.
Wearing a seat belt does not make you safe all the time. But wearing a seat belt has turned out to be safer than not wearing it. So why not take the safer way?
