Maybe 10 years old Elizabeth put it best when she said to her father," But Dad, you can't be healthy if you're dead."
Dad, in a hurry to get home before dark so he could go for a run, had forgotten to wear his safety belt—a mistake 75% of the US population make every day. The big question is why.
There have been many myths about safety belts since their first appearance in cars some forty years ago. The following are three of the most common.
Myth Number One: It's best to be "thrown clear "of a serious accident.
Truth: Sorry, but any accident serious enough to" throw you clear" is also going to be serious enough to give you a very bad landing, and chances are you'll have travelled through a windshield or door to do it. Studies show that chances of dying after a car accident are twenty-five times greater in cases where people are" thrown clear".
Myth Number Two: Safety belts" trap" people in cars that are burning or sinking in water.
Truth: Sorry again, but studies show that people knocked unconscious for not wearing safety belts have a greater chance of dying in these accidents. People wearing safety belts are usually protected to the point of having a clear head to free themselves from such dangerous situations, not to be trapped in them.
Myth Number Three: Safety belts aren't needed at a speed of less than 30 miles per hour (mph).
Truth: When two cars travelling at 30 mph hit each other, an unbelted driver would meet the windshield with a force headfirst into the ground from a height of 10 meters.
Why did Elizabeth say to her father, "But, Dad, you can't be healthy if you are dead"？
A．He was driving at great speed.
B．He was running across the street.
C．He didn't have his safety belt on.
D．He didn't take his medicine on time.

You're busy filling out the application form. for a position you really need; let's assume you once actually completed a couple of years of college work or even that you completed your degree.
Isn't it tempting to lie just a little, to claim on the form. that your diploma represents a Harvard degree？ Or that you finished an extra couple of years back at State University？ More and more people are turning to utter deception like this to land their job or to move ahead in their careers, for personnel officers, like most Americans, value degrees from famous schools. A job applicant may have a good education anyway, but he or she assumes that chances of being hired are better with a diploma from a well-known university. Registrars at most well-known colleges say they deal with deceitful claims like these at the rate of about one per week.
Personnel officers do check up on degrees listed on application forms, then, if it turns out that an applicant is lying, most colleges are reluctant to accuse the applicant directly. One Ivy League school calls them "impostors"; another refers to them as "special cases" one well-known West Coast school, in perhaps the most delicate phrase of all, says that these claims are made by "no such people."
To avoid outright lies, some job-seekers claim that they "attended" or "were associated with" a college or university. After carefully checking, a personnel officer may discover that "attending" means being dismissed after one semester. It may be that "being associated with" a college means that the job seeker visited his younger brother for a football weekend. One school that keeps records of false claims says that the practice dates back at least to the turn of the century—that's when they began keeping records, anyhow.
If you don't want to lie or even stretch the truth, there are companies that will sell you a phony diploma. One company, with offices in New York and on the West Coast, will put your name on a diploma from any number of nonexistent colleges. The price begins at around twenty dollars for a diploma from "Smoot State University." The prices increase rapidly for a degree from the "University of Purdue." As there is no Smoot State and the real school in Indiana is properly called Purdue University, the prices seem rather high for one sheet of paper.
The main idea of this passage is that ______.
A．employers are checking more closely on applicants now
B．lying about college degrees has become a widespread problem
C．college degrees can now be purchased easily
D．employers are no longer interested in college degrees
