"We need to be tough-minded about keeping guns out of our schools and do everything to keep our children safe."In March 1997, an 11 years old boy and 13 years old boy using handguns and rifles shot dead four children and a teacher at a school in Jonesboro, Arkansas. In October, two were killed and seven wounded in a shooting at a Mississippi school. Two months later, a 14 years old boy killed three high school students and wounded five in Dasucah, Kentucky.Most of the expulsions, 56 percent, were from high school, which have students from about age 13.34 percent were from junior high schools and 9 percent were from elementary schools, the report said.46.

Every day 25 million U.S. children fideschool buses. The safety record for these buses is much better than forpassenger cars; but nevertheless, about 10 children are killed each year ridingon large school buses, and nearly four times that number arc killed outsidebuses in the loading zones. By and large, however, the nation′s school childrenare transported to and from school safety.
Even though the number of school buscasualties (伤亡事故) is not large, the safety of children is always of intense publicconcern. While everyone wants to see children transported safely, people aredivided about what needs to be done particularly whether seat belts should bemandatory (强制).
Proponents of seat belts on schoolbuses--many of them parents and medical organizations argue that seat belts arcnecessary not only to reduce fatality and injury, but also to teach children lessonsabout the importance of using them routinely in any moving vehicle. A sidebenefit, they point out, is those seats belts help keep children in theirseats, away from the bus driver.
Opponents of seat belt installation suggestthat children are already well protected by the school buses that adhere to theNation Highway Traffic Safety Administrations (NHTSA) safety requirements setin 1977. They also believe that many children won′t wear seat belts anyway andthat may damage the belts or use them as weapons to hurt other children.
A new Research Council report on school bussafety suggests that there are alternate safety devices and procedures that maybe more effective and less expensive. For example, the study committeesuggested that raising seat backs four inches may have the same safetyeffectiveness as seat belts.
The report sponsored by the Department ofTransportation at the request of Congress, reviews seat belts extensively whiletaking a broader look at safety in and around school buses.
It may be inferred from this passagethat ______.查看材料A.many of the opponents (反对者) of seat beltinstallation are parents and officials of the Department of Transportation
