The Scrambled Paragraph

The Scrambled Paragraph:paragraph 1
Many cartoons have depicted  the very real dangers of driving while distracted. In a survey published by Farmers Insurance Group, 87% of those polled said that cell phones affect a driver’s ability, and 40% reported having close calls with drivers distracted by phones.Expert testimony, public opinion, and even cartoons suggest that driving while phoning is dangerous. Frances Bents, an expert on the relation between cell phones and accidents, estimates that between 450 and 1,000 crashes a year have some connection to cell phone use (Layton C9).

The Scrambled Paragraph:paragraph 2
Scientific research confirms the dangers of using phones while on the road.In 1997 an important study appeared in the New England Journal of Medicine.

A.  The authors, Donald Redelmeier and Robert Tibshirani, studied 699 volunteers who made their cell phone bills available in order to confirm the times when they had placed calls.



C. The news media often exaggerated the latter claim (“similar to” is not “equal to”); nonetheless, the comparison with drunk driving suggests the extent to which cell phone use while driving can impair judgment. 

D.  We found that using a cellular telephone was associated with a risk of having a motor vehicle collision that was about about four times as high as that among the same drivers when they were not using their cellular telephones. This relative risk is similar to the hazard associated with driving with a blood alcohol level at the legal limit. (456) 

E. The participants agreed to report any nonfatal collision in which they were involved.

F. In 1997 an important study appeared in the New England Journal of Medicine. 

G.  By comparing the time of a collision with the phone records, the researchers assessed the dangers of driving while phoning.

A: compare the character traits of Gilgamesh and Enkidu

the character of Gigamesh is a rude person, he thinks he's the best person. Because of this he does what he wants ti whoever he wants without caring of the person feels. The reason he acts like that is because he was created so perfect but he really isn't since his adduide to the world isn't good
