题目列表(包括答案和解析)
When Scotsman Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876, it was a revolution in communication.Over the last two decades a new means of spoken communication has emerged: the mobile phone.
The modern mobile phone is a more complex version of the two-way radio.Traditional two-way radio was a very limited means of communication.As soon as the users moved out of range of each other's broadcast area, the signal was lost.In the 1940s, researchers began experimenting with the idea of using a number of radio masts (天线杆)located around to pick up signals from two-way radios.A caller would always be within range of one of the masts; when he or she moved too far away from one mast, the next mast would pick up the signal.(Scientists referred to each mast's reception area as being a separate "cell"; this is why in.many countries mobile phones are called "cell phones".)
The first real mobile telephone call was made in 1973 by Dr Martin Cooper.As soon as his invention was completed,, he tested it by calling another scientist to announce his success.Within a decade, mobile phones became available to the public.They have changed the way we do a lot of things.One powerful feature is the Short Message Service (SMS) or text message.It's the perfect communication method for the busy modern lifestyle.Going to be late? Send a text message! The text message has changed the way we write in English.The language construction became less strict.Traditional rules of grammar and spelling are much less important when you're sitting on the bus, hurriedly typing "Will B 15mm late-C U @ the bar.(I will be 15 minutes late to see you at the
bar.) Sorry!".
Over the last few years mobiles have become more and more advanced.We have seen the instruction of cameras, global positioning system and Internet access.
Alexander Graham Bell would be surprised if he could see how far the science of telephone has progressed in less than 150 years.If he were around today, he might say: "That’s gr8(great)! But I'm busy rite now(I am very busy right now).Will call U2nite(I will call you tonight.)."

What do you think of the writer according to the last paragraph.
A.Humorous. B.Ironic. C.Kind. D.Worried.
About fifty years ago, when television first came out, people thought that radio was no longer useful. Television has both sounds and images(影像). It is much more real and interesting to watch television than to listen to the radio.
However, fifty years later radio is still very popular and it will be here for a long time. One reason is that we don’t need to see an image when we listen to the music on the radio. In fact, listening with your eyes closed is the best way to listen to a piece of music. You can imagine yourself on a sandy beach or up high on a mountain. In other words, you can create your own images. Moreover, while listening to the radio, you don’t have to take your eyes off your work. For example, you can listen to the radio and drive at the same time. Or you can read a book and listen to the radio. Television, on the other hand, doesn’t have this advantage.
A radio is much smaller than a television. You can take a radio anywhere and turn it on anytime you want. In a quiet place you can use headphones to listen to the news or music on the radio. In this way you won’t disturb anybody.
Moreover, a radio is much cheaper than a television. For less than $ 20 you can buy a small radio and have fun with it.
