Part one comprehension (30pts)

Text A
" In the 19th century Europe , life was full of danger for both agricultural workers and those who worked in the industrial factories with new machinery . Gradually , under pressure from workers' organizations , governments began to pass laws to improve conditions , and employers now have to take responsibility for the safety of their employees . …. In poorer countries , though , safety regulations are weak and the dangers remain . There's a feeling , usually unspoken , among governments and employers in these countries that safety in the workplace is a luxury that they can't afford , and that safety regulations make business less competitive and brings less money . … Meanwhile , in richer countries , health and safety regulations have been extended into other areas of life , like transport , schools , hospitals , and other public services . In most countries , for example , it is against the law to drive a car without wearing a seat belt . When this law was first suggested , some people believed it should be a matter of personal choice , but it is now accepted that wearing seat belts has saved many lives . …Over the last 20 years or so , there has been a gradual change in attitude , partly because of regular stories in the popular press about school children not being allowed to go on school trips or play traditional games in the playground . Some of these stories were not actually true , but still the feeling has grown that government regulation has gone too far , taking away people's responsibility for their own safety .may be one reason why there are still only two countries in the world where all cyclists , by law , have to wear helmets . In other countries , governments don't want to restrict people's personal freedom . "
