(D) Mobile phones are more important than ever in the daily lives of students, but how they use them has changed greatly in the past six years. While phones are still widely use for communication, a recent study has found that most students think talking on mobile phones is now old-fashioned. London University researchers surveyed 1055 young people aged 13 to 18 about their mobile phone habits. The researchers divided mobile phone use into “communication and “entertainment . Communication included talking on the phone and writing messages using textingor chatting software. Entertainment was made up of playing games, watching movies, listening to music and surfing the Internet. The findings were then compared to a 2008 study, to see what changed. The results are shown below: Perhaps most surprising is how little time students spend talking on their phones these days. Six years ago the average student spent 36% of their mobile phone time making or receiving calls. In 2014, only 10% of time was used for talking. When students use their phones to communicate, more and more often it is done by using chat software like qq or we chat. “Communication is still an important function of mobile phones. But now mobile phones are being used more for entertainment than for communication, said Dr Harry Lectre, the research leader. 61. What was the most popular mobile phone activity in 2014? A. Talking. B. Texting. C. Playing games. D. Watching movies. 62. In total, what percentage of time did students use their mobile phones for communication in 2008? A. 16%. B. 28%. C. 35%. D. 71%. 63.

     These days the subject of security (安全) on campus is talked about quite often. Some students' mobile
phones are stolen, some students fight with and hurt one another, and others are knocked down by the fast
running bikes or cars.
     These problems arc common on campus. I think there are three causes for these. Firstly, some students
do not take good care of their properties. They are still young and not careful enough. Secondly, some
students want to do everything well. They want to be the winners in exams, and they also want to be the
winners in fightings. And thirdly, the campus guards (保安) do not carry on their duties well. They don' t
regulate the traffic in the busy hour.
     In order to have a secure campus, all the students should be very careful about their properties. They
should also mind their behaviors (举止) and act politely. The campus guards are supposed to be devoted
(致力于) to the security on campus, and it is their duty to safeguard (维护) a secure campus to help provide
a good environment for the students.

If you go to the Hong Kong History Museum,  you will see a photo taken in 1989 of a man holding a mobile phone. The phone is the size of a small handbag and when the person is speaking into, it,  it covers half of his face! In sixteen years,  people have entered the mobile phone age.

     When I asked my daughter which item she would keep: the phone, the car, the cooker, the computer,
the TV or her boyfriend, she said "the phone". Personally, I could do without the phone entirely, which
makes me unusual, because the telephone is changing our lives more than any other piece of technology.
      Point l. The telephone creates the need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more
traffic. My daughter comes home from school at 4:00 pm and then spends an hour on the phone talking to
the very people she has been at school with all day. If the phone did not exist (存在), would she have
anything to talk about?   
      Point 2. The mobile phone means that we are never alone. "The mobile saved my life," says Crystal
Johnstone. She had an accident in her Volvo on the A45 between Otley and Skipton. Trapped inside, she
managed to make the call that brought the ambulance (救护车) to her rescue.
      Point 3. The mobile removes our secrets. It allows marketing manager of Haba Deutsch, Carl Nicolaisen,
to ring his sales staff all round the world at any time of day to ask where they are, where they are going,
and how their last meeting went.
     Point 4. The telephone separates us. Antonella Bramante in Rome says, "We worked in separate offices
but I could see him through the window. It was easy to get his number. We were so near, but we didn't meet
for the first two weeks!"
     Point 5. The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives. Today we can talk to several complete
strangers at the same time on chat lines (at least my daughter does. I wouldn't know what to talk about). We
can talk across the world. We can even talk to astronauts while they're space-walking. And, with the phone
line connected with the computer, we can aceess (进入) the Intemet, the biggest library on Earth.
1. How do you understand Point l- "The telephone creates the need to communicate"?
A. People don't communicate without telephone.
B. People communicate because of the creating of the telephone.
C. People communicate more since telephone has been created.
D. People communicate more because of more traffic.
2. Which of the following best shows people's attitude towards mobile phones?
A. Mobile phones can help to save people's lives.
B. Mobile phones are so important and should be encouraged.
C. Mobile phones bring convenience (便利) as well as few secrets to people.
D. Mobile phones can be used to talk to astronauts while they're space-walking.
3. Which points do you think support the idea that phones improve people's life'?
A. Point 3 and Point 4.
B. Point 4 and Point 5.
C. Point l and Point 3.
D. Point 2 and Point 5.
4. The best title for the passage would be _______.
A. Influence of Phones
B. Kinds of Phones
C. How to Use Phones
D. Advantage of Phones
