题目内容
16.It is not a good idea to interrupt the actor Richard Griffiths in the middle of a play.During the past year he has stopped performances at the National Theatre when mobile phones have gone off,and he threw one member of the audience out of a West End play for failing to switch off his phone.So when a mobile rang out for the third time during his performance as Hector,a teacher,in Alan Bennett's The History Boys at the Broadhurst Theatre in New York,he spoke angrily:"I am not going to compete with these electronic devices".
Griffiths'actions led a debate in the UK theatre world over whether phones should be forbidden by law from British theatres,too.Actors are already asking the government to legalise (使合法化) the use of electronic screening (屏蔽) devices to block mobile phone signals from theatres.
Technology companies market"blocking"devices that send out a high-powered signal on the same frequency (频率) as a mobile phone,occupying all the available spectrums (频谱).
But these are forbidden in many countries because they might prevent emergency calls from being made.
Rosemary Squire,president of the Society of West End Theatre and co-founder of the Ambassador Theatre Group,which operates 12West End theatres,said,"Phones are one of the biggest operational problems theatres face.We should look for equipment that could block phones or make a London-wide theatre rule."
Nick Allott,the managing director of Sir Cameron Mackintosh's theatre group,said,"We would all welcome some ways of preventing ringing phones,but doctors and emergency workers need to be paged in a theatre and we mustn't prevent that."

A.Griffiths'next performance in theatres.

分析 本文属于记叙文阅读,作者通过这篇文章向我们介绍了人们是否应该在剧院中使用手机这个问题,一些人认为不应该在剧院中使用手机,剧院应该使用一些屏蔽设备来防止人们使用手机,但是有些人认为使用手机是不可避免的,因为如果医生或急救人员在剧院中有时是必须要打电话的.
解答 47.C 推理判断题,通读全文可知本文主要向我们介绍了我们经常使用的电子设备--手机,而前两段的目的是为了引出本文的话题以及主要内容,从理查德•格利菲斯对于手机的态度来展开下文,故选C.
48.B 细节理解题,根据第三段Actors are already asking the government to legalise (使合法化) the use of electronic screening (屏蔽) devices to block mobile phone signals from theatres.可知"blocking"devices是指屏蔽手机信号,使手机不能正常使用,故选B.
49.C 词义猜测题,根据最后一段"We would all welcome some ways of preventing ringing phones,but doctors and emergency workers need to be paged in a theatre and we mustn't prevent that."可知我们在一些方面都希望能防止手机铃声响,但是有时医生和急救人员在剧院中打电话是不能避免的,根据文中语意可知此处"paged"可替换为called,故选C.
50.C 推理判断题,根据最后一段Nick Allott,the managing director of Sir Cameron Mackintosh's theatre group,said,"We would all welcome some ways of preventing ringing phones,but doctors and emergency workers need to be paged in a theatre and we mustn't prevent that."可知这里说明了剧院总经理卡麦隆•麦金托什爵士对于在剧院中使用手机的看法,由此推知最后一段应该讲述公众对这个问题的看法,故选C.
点评 考查学生的细节理解和推理判断能力.做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确选择.在做推理判断题时不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.
