阅读表达（阅读下面短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。）

A new study suggests women may well be better drivers than men. Why is that？ Wouldnt you think that competing at who has better driving abilities is pointless？ If you ask me， Id like to say， men know that women are better drivers but do not have the courage to admit the truth.

Unlike men， women stop for directions when they have no idea where they are going. Women dont drive around for hours pointlessly wasting a tank of gas only to find themselves heading in the wrong direction. Have you ever been in a car with a man who is lost？ He tells you to shut up when you begin to open your mouth. And every five minutes or so he takes a turn going forty-five miles per hour only to find out hes made another wrong turn.

Speeding is what men do best on the road. Traffic is not a race. There is a reason why men get more speeding tickets than women. Not because women trick to get out of tickets but only because they dont speed. Women dont risk putting their own lives and the lives of others in danger. In other words， they have more responsibility for life.

My largest issue with male drivers is how a majority of them drive with one hand on the wheel and the other hand doing only God knows what. The seat is backed as far as possible. Theyre totally lost in loud music beyond a necessary level. You dont ever see women driving like that.

I feel that the above evidence more than proves my points that women are queens of the road. Oh， men， if you want to continue criticizing women for being bad drivers， bring it on. We know you lack confidence， or else you wouldnt be wasting your valuable time making jokes about the ones you may choose to spend the rest of your days with.
