    　　You are about to say something to your younger brother when he gestures that he’s got a phone message．

    　　Don’t get mad．He’s just telling you the truth．

    　　However，the technology was originally aimed at annoying teenagers, not the other way around．

    　　Called the Mosquito, it was marketed last year by a Welsh security company．It is an ear-splitting 17-kilohertz buzzer(蜂鸣器)designed to help shopkeepers get rid of young people hanging around in front of their stores．Humans can hear sounds taking place in a frequency range between 200 and 20,000 hertz, as the research shows．But our hearing gradually becomes worse when we grow up．

    　　Harry, who is in Australia with his friend now, agreed to carry the 2 in-thick, credit- card – sized Traakit device when he left home．By visiting a website, his mother can track him to within 15ft of his exact location and the global positioning system can even send her a text message alert if he goes anywhere he shouldn’t．“I can’t tell which street he is in but I can make sure he doesn’t wander into any dangerous area,” added Mrs．Wilder．Harry will travel to Thailand next month before heading to South Africa in July．He is due to start a degree in Business Management at Oxford University in September．

    　　The Traakit device was developed by Harry’s uncle David Clatton, 65．It costs ￡279 plus ￡11 a month．It triangulates(作三角测量)its position by taking co- ordinate(同等的)readings from four satellites．It feels the information back to a computer, which then maps out where it is in the world．

    　　To tell you the truth, I'm not interested in owing a cellular (网络) phone…except for use in an emergency (紧急情况), for ordinary cellular phone service is very expensive. How would I get help if I were in trouble or in danger? A good friend told about a product she thought would settle my problem. It's the SOS phone—a cellular phone service designed for emergency use.

    　　With the touch of a button the SOS phone will connect me to a roadside emergency service, a 911 service or a trained service SOS operator, 24 hours a day. If I ever need help, I know it's just a phone call away.

    　　By pressing the “Two” button, I'll be connected with my emergency roadside service provider (提供者), or if I don't have one, the SOS operator can suggest one to me and get in touch with them immediately.

    　　The “911' button will connect me to 911 emergency service in my area—best of all, the call is completely free!

    　　If I just want to call home to tell my husband and children something necessary, I can. By pressing the “Call” button, I'll reach an operator. When I ask the operator to call home, I'll be connected automatically (自动地). And because the Call Center has my 10 most-used phone numbers, I don't even have to recite the number.

    　　Unlike ordinary cellular phone plans, the SOS phone doesn't have any minimum usage requirements (最低底价) or other promises that could change the price I expect to pay each month.

    　　Why not try it yourself?

    1．The writer enjoys using the SOS phone because ________.

    [　　]

    A．she is always in trouble or in danger

    B．she thinks the cost of its service is reasonable

    C．she needn't pay for any emergency service

    D．the ordinary cellular phone cannot be used in an emergency

    2．When you have a SOS phone, ________.

    [　　]

    A．you will get help whenever you are in an emergency

    B．you will be safe whenever you are

    C．you can be connected with anyone

    D．you can get service from any cellular phones

    3．When you want to call home, ________

    [　　]

    A．yon will have to tell the operator your home phone number

    B．the operator will suggest one phone number to you

    C．the Call Center will pass on your words to your family

    D．you'll be connected with your family with the help of an operator
