Colons and Semi colons: Answers to SB p.73 3b

Here are the answers from the Teacher's Book. I hope you find them useful. (The answers are in red.)

Due to an excessive concern for health and safety, there are more and more rules and regulations for drivers; these are supposed to make our roads safer for everyone. This essay will discuss the following three factors: seatbelts, mobile phones and eating or drinking while driving. Some current laws make perfect sense, such as wearing a seatbelt. Children, in particular, are clearly not safe unless they are wearing a seatbelt.

The second issue to be considered is the illegal use of mobile phones: that is, the use of phones to make calls or send texts. As soon as a driver takes their eyes off the road, they are putting lives in danger, so it seems that texting is unsafe. It is claimed that the same danger applies to talking on the phone; however, as long as the speaker’s attention remains focused on the road, they should be able to drive perfectly safely. Nevertheless, the car must be parked in order to have a mobile phone conversation legally; otherwise it is breaking the law.
