It has always been said that women are not good drivers, because they simply don’t have very good driving ability. On the other hand, most car accidents happen to men; very few happen to women.
From this, we can see that women are much more careful while driving. Another very interesting fact is that in the past, women preferred to let their husbands be the only driver in the family rather than have a driving license. Somehow they were prevented from making this step in their life, but nowadays there are many women that want to pass their driving tests at an early age.
However, we have to admit that men are more skillful drivers than women, but this does not mean that a woman cannot become a good driver by accumulating (积累) experience. So more and more teenagers and women around the age of thirty now want to pass their driving tests. While taking their driving lessons, they also have a number of special lessons with their parents or somebody in the family that has a driving license. This is just to improve their driving abilities and help them to pass the tests more easily.
To conclude, we can say that women are not such bad drivers. They just need more experience than men in order to be able to drive well. And on the other hand, there are a number of women that show better driving skills than the men around them.

Jerry is a popular manager of a restaurant. It was his attitude 21 made the waiters follow him. He was a natural motivator (鼓舞人心的人). If a(n) 22 was having a bad day, Jerry was always there, telling him/her how to look on the 23 side of the situation.
This attitude really made me 24, so one day I asked him, “I don’t get it! No one can be a positive person 25. How can you manage it?”

“No,” Jerry said, “35 when I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared.”
“A nurse asked if I was allergic (过敏的) to anything. ‘Yes’ I replied. The doctors and nurses stopped 36 as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breath and yelled, ‘37 !’”
