Mobile Phones:Change Our Life
In the case of mobile phones,change is everything. Recent research indicates that the mobile phone is changing not only our culture,but our very bodies as well.
First,Let's talk about culture.The difference between the mobile phone and its parent一the fixed-line phone,is that a mobile phone corresponds to a person,while a landline goes to a place.If you call my mobile,you get me.If you call my fixed-line phone,you get whoever answers it.
This has several implications.The most common one,however,and perhaps the thing that has changed our culture forever,is the"meeting"influence.People no longer need to make firm plans about when and where to meet.Twenty years ago,a Friday night would need to be arranged in advance.You needed enough time to allow everyone to get from their place of work to the first meeting place.Now,however,a night out can be arranged on the run.It is no longer"see you there at 8", but"text me around 8 and we'll see where we all are".
Texting changes people as well.In their paper,"Insights into the Social and Psychological Effects of SMS Text Messaging",two British researchers distinguished between two types of mobile phone users:the"talkers"and the"texters”一those who prefer voice to text message and those who prefer text message to voice.
They found that the mobile phone's individuality and privacy gave texters the ability to express a whole new outer personality.Texters were likely to report that their family would be surprised if they were to read their texts.This suggests that texting allowed texters to present a self-image that differed from the one familiar to those who knew them well.
Another scientist wrote of the changes that mobiles have brought to body language.There are two kinds that people use while speaking on the phone.There is the"speakeasy":the head is held high,in a self-confident way,chatting away.And there is the"spacemaker":these people focus on themselves and keep out other people.
Who can blame them?Phone meetings get cancelled or reformed and camera-phones intrude on people's privacy. So,it is understandable if your mobile makes you nervous.But perhaps you needn't worry so much.After all,it is good to talk.
This passage is from a science magazine.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned

一 作文一 作文 作文 作文 一一 The Impact of the Mobile Phone in People s Life The thought provoking drawing mirrors a common phenomenon in contemporary society that there is the negative influence of mobile phone As is subtly shown in the picture so many people are too much addicted to cell phones that they use walking sticks to see the road What a meaningful cartoon It is to me that indulging in mobile phones produces native influences on body and mind First and foremost overusing mobile phones is detrimental to physical health for watching mobiles for a long stretch definitely impairs one s eyesight Suppose that a man is addicted in cell phones in whatever situation it will be very disadvantageous for him to concentrate on his work learning or daily life and is very likely to hurt him Furthermore overusing cell phones adversely affects state of mind An addict may stay inside his bubble instead of pursuing other endeavors which eventually prevents the growth of think skills It is high time that we took effective measures to curb this trend I cherish a belief that cell phones themselves are not good or bad and we can benefit a lot from it as long as we take a good control over them 作文 作文 二二 The Impact of the Internet on the Way People Communicate 网络对人们沟通产生的影响网络对人们沟通产生的影响 Internet does exert such a profound effect on our life that it revolutionizes the way of people s living and thinking As is subtly revealed in the portrayal there are two parents sitting in the front of computer who are chatting with their child on the internet What a meaningful picture From my perspective the electronic contact cannot replace face to face communication owing to the following factors To begin with over reliance on electronic contact will damage the interpersonal relationship for the cold machine never replaces a warm hearted greeting face to face For example the aged parents would like their only son who works far away home to come back home more often rather than to talk with him on the internet occasionally What s more face to face communication is preferable because it is beneficial to build a harmonious society for it attaches more importance on human affection and feelings instead of convenience and speed Hence it is necessary for us to use Internet in a reasonable way After all Internet is invented to connect you and me and to bring conveniences to our life rather than set a barrier to keep people beyond reach If we want to keep our interpersonal relationship more effectively we should spend more time with them face to face in real life Only in this way can we not only make full use of the communication tool on the net but also make our relationship tighter 二 听力测试 原文 二 听力测试 原文 2013 年年 12 月大学英语四级听力真题月大学英语四级听力真题原文 原文 听力短对话 Question 1 M After high school I d like

Cell Phones : Hang Up or Keep Talking?
Millions of people are using cell phones today.In many places it is actually considered unusual not to
use one.In many countries,cell phones are very popular with young people.They find that the phones are
more than a means of communication一having a mobile phone shows that they are cool and connected.
The explosions around the world in mobile phone use make some health professionals worried.Some
doctors are concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems from the use of mobile
phones.In England,there has been a serious debate about this issue. Mobile phone companies are worried about
the negative publicity of such ideas.They say that there is no proof that mobile phones are bad for your health.
On the other hand,why do some medical studies show changes in the brain cells of some people who use
mobile phones?Signs of change in the tissues of the brain and head can be detected with modern scanning
equipment. In one case,a traveling salesman had to retire at a young age because of serious memory loss.He
couldn't remember even simple tasks.He would often forget the name of his own son.This man used to talk
on his mobile phone for about six hours a day,every day of his working week,for a couple of years. His family
doctor blamed his mobile phone use,but his employer's doctor didn't agree.
What is it that makes mobile phones potentially harmful?The answer is radiation.High-tech machines
can detect very small amounts of radiation from mobile phones.Mobile phone companies agree that there is
some radiation,but they say the amount is too small to worry about.
As the discussion about their safety continues,it appears that it's best to use mobile phones less often.
Use your regular phone if you want to talk for a long time.Use your mobile phone only when you really need
it. Mobile phones can be very useful and convenient,especially in emergencies.In the future,mobile phones
may have a warning label that says they are bad for your health.So for now,it's wise not to use your mobile
phone too often.
On the safety issue of mobile phones,the manufacturing companies_________.
A:deny the existence of mobile phone radiation
B:develop new technology to reduce mobile phone radiation
C:try to prove that mobile phones are not harmful to health
D:hold that the amount of radiation is too small to worry about
答案：D
解析：
由第一段第三句“cell phones are very popular”可知A项正确。由最后一段第四句“very useful and convenient”可知，B、D两项正确。故选C。
根据语境可知detect的意思是“发现，查明”。故选C。
由第三段可知那位销售员是因为严重的记忆问题而退休的，他连简单的任务都记不 住，故选D。
由第四段最后一句可知，移动公司承认手机有一些辐射，但他们认为辐射的量很小，无 需担心。
由文章最后一句可知，作者建议大家尽量少使用手机。 第三篇 本篇文章讲述了对杭微生物的杭力应引起注意。
