【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
When you get in your car, you reach for it. When you're at work, you take a break to have a moment alone with it. When you get into a lift, you play with it.
Cigarettes? Cup of coffee? No, it's the third most addictive(使人上瘾的) thing in modern life, the cell phone. And experts say it is becoming more difficult for many people to curb their wishes to hug it more tightly than most of their personal relationships.
With its shiny surface, its smooth and satisfying touch, the cell phone connects us to the world even as it disconnects us from people three feet away. It affects us in ways its inventors in the late 1940s never imagined.
Dr. Chris Knippers, an expert at the Betty Ford Center in Southern California, reports that the overuse of cell phones has become a social problem not much different from other harmful addictions: a barrier to one-on-one personal contact, and an escape from reality.
Sounds extreme, but we've all witnessed the evidence: the person at a restaurant who talks on the phone through an entire meal, ignoring his kids around the table; the woman who talks on the phone in the car, ignoring her husband; the teen who texts messages all the way home from school, avoiding contact with kids all around him. Is it just rude, or is it a kind of unhealthiness? And pardon me, but how is this improving the quality of life?
Jim Williams, an industrial sociologist based in Massachusetts, he points to a study by Duke University researchers that found one-quarter of Americans say they have no one to discuss their most important personal business with. Despite the growing use of phones, e-mail and instant messaging, in other words, Williams says studies show that we don't have as many friends as our parents. “Just as more information has led to less wisdom, more acquaintances(熟人) through the Internet and cell phones have produced fewer friends,” he says.
If the cell phone has truly had these effects, it's because it has become very widespread. In 1987, there were only 1 million cell phones in use. Today, almost 300 million Americans carry them. The number of cell phones is far more than that of wired phones in the United States.
(1)Which of the following could probably best explain the title of the passage?
A.Cell phone users smoke less than they used to.
B.More people use cell phones than smoke cigarettes.
C.Cell phones have become as addictive as cigarettes.
D.Using cell phone is just as cool as smoking cigarettes.
(2)The underlined word “curb” in Paragraph 2 means ________.
A.rescue
B.control
C.develop
D.ignore
(3)Which idea does the example of a woman talking on the phone in the car support?
A.Women use cell phones more often than men.
B.Talking on the phone while driving is dangerous.
C.Cell phones make one-on-one personal contact easy.
D.Cell phones do not necessarily bring people together.
(4)What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?
A.How to make people get closer.
B.The advantages of wired phones.
C.How to use cell phones properly.
D.Giving an example to prove the bad effects of cell phones.

【题目】My sister Jodie and I are always traveling for work.As jewelry designers, we need to go to a lot of shows.We can’t pack lightly and usually bring about four suitcases filled with our work.
Most of our stuff is made from heavy materials and metals.So part of the routine for us when we fly is getting stopped by security. Our jewelry sets off the alarms, and we’ve become accustomed to arriving early to go through private screenings. Most of the time, it’s not troublesome.
However, on our recent trip to a Paris trade show, we were stopped at security and asked to empty our bags.One of the agents walked over to another agent and they started whispering to each other.Both gentlemen came back, and one of them then told us that it seemed that we were carrying a very dangerous object.
My sister and I just said, “Huh?” Of course, we were a little concerned, thinking that maybe someone put something dangerous in one of our bags when we weren’t looking.
One of the agents then started to unpack our bags.I kept asking what he was looking for and then the object in question finally appeared.It was our Cosima necklace.It’s a piece of jewelry, with large, metal triangular spikes.
My sister and I looked at each other and breathed a huge sigh of relief.We started laughing and explained to the two male agents that it was just a necklace from our collection, not a weapon of mass destruction.They thought we were lying, and one agent kept repeating that he believed it was a weapon.
I tried to explain that we were jewelry designers going to a trade show, and this was simply a piece from our collection.But the agents didn’t buy it.Then a few women guards came over to assist.One of the women guards was holding an earring up to her ear and another was trying on a ring.Apparently, they liked our stuff.
It was only at this point that the male guards gave up.And I think they also got tired of listening to a bunch of women talk about jewelry.They let us through.
We took the names of the women agents and sent them a piece of jewelry when we got back to say thanks.
【1】When the object in question finally appeared, the writer and her sister felt _______.
A. anxious B. relieved
C. excited D. frightened
【2】The writer and her sister were stopped by the agents because ________.
A. their suitcases were too heavy
B. the agents wanted to play a joke on them
C. they were suspected to carry dangerous objects
D. the agents wanted to admire the jewelry inside the suitcases
【3】The underlined word “buy” in Paragraph 7 probably means ________.
A. doubt B. believe
C. purchase D. understand
【4】The writer sent the women agents a piece of jewelry in order to ________.
A. persuade them to buy her jewelry later
B. get help from them next time
C. show them her talent in designing jewelry
D. show them her appreciation for their assistance
