四、阅读理解
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项。
Every culture has a recognized point when a child becomes an adult，when rules must be followed and tests passed.
In China，although teenagers can get their ID cards at 16，many only see themselves as adults when they are 18.In the US，where everyone drives，the main step to the freedom of adult life is learning to drive.At 16，American teenagers take their driving test.When they have their license，they drive into the grownup world.
“Nobody wants to ride the cheese bus to school，” said Eleanor Fulham,17.She recalled the pressure，especially from kids from wealthier families.“It's like you're not cool if you don't have a car，” she said.
According to recent researches,41 percent of 16 to 19yearolds in the US own cars，up from 23 percent in 1985.Although most of these cars are bought by parents，some teenagers get parttime jobs to help pay.
Not all families can afford cars for their children.In the cities with subways and limited parking，some teenagers don't want them.But in rich suburban areas without subways，it is strange for a teenager not to have a car.
But police say 16yearolds have almost three times more accidents than 18 and 19yearolds.This has made many parents pause before letting their kids drive.
Julie Sussman of Virginia，decided that her son Chad,15，will wait until he is 17 to apply for his learner's permit.
Chad said he has accepted his parents' decision，although it has caused some teasing(取笑)from his friends.“They say that I am unlucky，” he said.“But I'd rather be alive than driving，and I don't really trust my friends on the road either.”
In China as more families get cars，more 18yearolds learn to drive.Will this become a big step toward becoming an adult?

C．Chad won't have his driver's license when he is 16.
D．All teenagers in the American cities with subways own cars.
( )4.What's the author's attitude towards learning to drive to be a big step toward becoming an adult in China?
