7．Parties and social gathering no longer excite us the same way they once did．This is not because of a lack of desire to socialize，but the mobile-phone．
At parties，more people are on their phones than on their drinks．According to a recent International Data Corporation Study，over half of all Americans have a smartphone and reach for it as soon as they wake up，keeping it in hand all day．In addition，too many people in society are using smartphones while driving and as a result，they get into car crashes.34percent of teenagers admit sending messages while driving，and they agree that sending messages is their number one driving interruption．People's addiction（沉溺） to their smartphones is unbelievably becoming more important than the lives of themselves and others．
Just as drivers ignore the importance of focusing while on the road，many people also fail to recognize the importance of human communication．When with their friends，some people aimlessly check or send messages in front of a friend，which sends a message to that friend：the person I am texting is more important than you．In addition，relying on our smartphones to make friends does not give us the same advantage as being able to make new friendships in the real world．Face-to-face conversations will give us much stronger communication skills in the long run．
As many people risk their lives and the lives of people around them just to send a message or mindlessly check their messages，smartphones are in many ways more dangerous to people．The quality of this technology is preventing societal achievements and weakening the value of communication．Not only is the smartphone affecting our desire to communicate face to face，but it is also lowering society's ability to communicate．

点评 做阅读时经常犯错的主要原因是，仅凭读过文章后残留在脑海中的一丝印象来勾选答案，这样便很容易掉入出题人故意设布下的题目陷阱．所谓阅读理解，对于题目的理解一定要忠实于原文，因此，每一道题都应该与原文作全面的对比与核查，再得出答案．也就是说，阅读理解的每一道题目，在原文都应该有明确的出处，我们把这一出处叫做原文相关句，（1）排除与原文相关句主题不一致的选项（2）排除与原文相关句态度相反的选项 （3）排除用于过于极端或负面的选项（4）注意结合文章主旨和主题去排除．
