单选题Questions are based on the following passage.
A company in Boston, Adela Voice, has invented a smart-phone application called Start Talking that allows drivers to send and receive text messages while driving. Unfortunately, however, such a hands-free texting device will not reduce the likelihood of an accident while texting.
To date,30 states have outlawed texting while driving. The new smart-phone application is obviously designed to get around such laws and allow the drivers to text while driving. However, the device is unlikely to reduce accidents for the same reason that the use of hands-free cell phones apparently has not reduced auto accidents.
As I explain in an earlier post, it is not the use of the hands while driving that is likely contributing to the greater likelihood of accidents while talking on the cell phone or texting, but the use of the brain for an evolutionarily novel, "unnatural" behavior of communicating with a person who is not present. Hands-free devices do not alter the evolutionary novelty of such communication, so they are not likely to be less cognitively taxing than hand-held cell phones.
Because there was no such thing as communicating with someone who is not present within the earshot (听力之所及范围) in the ancestral environment, all such communications are evolutionarily novel. And the human brain,' designed for and adapted to the conditions of the ancestral (祖传的)environment, has inherent difficulty comprehending and dealing with all such communications. It likely finds such tasks cognitively demanding and taxing, and a greater portion of their cognitive energy and attention will have to be diverted from the (equally evolutionarily novel. task of driving a car to the cell phone conversation. The human brain likely finds it too cognitively demanding to carryon two such evolutionarily novel tasks simultaneously and efficiently.
If the hands-free texting application reduces the likelihood of accidents at all, it is probably not because it is hands-free, but because it allows the users to use (evolutionarily familiar) spoken language, rather than (evolutionarily novel) written language, in the communication.
If we want truly to reduce auto accidents as a result of cell phone conversations, we shouldn't be using hands-free devices, because they do not do anything to alter the evolutionary novelty of the conversation. As I mention in the earlier post, we should develop a technology that allows us to project a holographic image of the person we are speaking to inside the car. Short of that, we should encourage, people to use the new iPhone application Face time that allows them to see the other person on the phone. Using Face time should somewhat fool their brain into thinking that the person they are communicating with is immediately present, especially if they are less intelligent.
What is said about the new smart-phone application?

A．It has received some praise from drivers.
B．It has violated the law obviously.
C．It turns out not having reduced accidents.
D．It allows drivers to text messages without hands.
