  The big opportunities in tomorrow's world lie in creating solutions to lessen daily inconveniences in urban India and to increase incomes in rural India.The PC Internet is limited by various factors?Low installed base of PCs, poor broadband systems that is for the majority of the audience limited to cybercafés.By contrast, a world built around teleputers can create new opportunities.

  Imagine the nearby kirana store, Ajay Kirana.It can now publish regular updates on deals.My mother may want to subscribe to Ajay Kirana's updates on her teleputer.She can then decide once she gets the update if she wants to get the bread at half-price.Or, imagine a toy company providing regular updates to new parents on what are the best toys to buy along with parenting tips.This does not have to be limited to text?It can come with rich media attachments.Imagine a TV broadcaster sending out updates at 8∶30 pm providing a small preview of the 9 pm soap opera?My wife would love a service like that!

  Small book publishers could build relationships by sending out regular updates of new books to subscribers, and even take orders and payments via the teleputer.For those who would like to listen, there could be audio serials sent out daily.Imagine getting a small abstract from religious scriptures to begin one's day.

  In rural India, the teleputer can be the instrument for person-to-person classifieds.People could publish what they would like to buy or sell via their teleputer.

  The multimedia-rich teleputer could also be used by job seekers for creating multimedia profiles of them.The same idea could be applied for those seeking marriage partners.

  There are many such innovative ideas which can come into play once the digital infrastructure has been created.Perhaps, the biggest opportunities lie in rethinking education and healthcare around a school-in-a-box' concept(as put forth by Atanu Dey)and personal healthcare records, respectively.

Contrary to common belief, social media websites such as Facebook do not weaken personal ties, they strengthen them in unique ways for different age groups, according to a new study.
The rapid spread of Facebook, which has more than 500 million users worldwide, has prompted concerns about its negative effects, but researchers at the University of Texas have reached a different conclusion.
"Our findings suggest that Facebook is not replacing face-to-face interactions between friends, family and colleagues," said S.Craig Watkins, an associate professor of radio, TV and film who headed the research team.
"In fact, we believe there is sufficient evidence that social media afford opportunities for new expressions of friendship, intimacy and community."
The researchers questioned 900 college students and recent graduates about how and with whom they interact on Facebook.
More than 60 percent of Facebook users said posting status updates was among the most popular activities, followed by 60 percent who wrote comments on their profile and 49 percent who posted messages and comments to friends.
The researchers also found that although about the same number of men and women use Facebook, they do so in different ways.
"There is a noteworthy difference in aims in how to use a tool like Facebook.We found that for women the content tends to be more affectionate, and (they) are especially interested in using it for connection," said Watkins.
"For men, it's more functional," he added.
Watkins pointed out that, for example, women are more likely to post pictures of social gatherings with friends, while men are more likely to post pictures of hobbies, or post a political or pop-culture related link.
【小题1】What's the popular viewpoint of ordinary people about the function of social media websites? They think ____.

C.Men and women use a tool like Facebook for the same aim
D.Facebook is taking the place of face-to-face interactions between friends

A federal agency on Tuesday called for a ban on all cellphone use by drivers -- the most far-reaching recommendation up to now — saying its decision was based on a decade of investigations into distraction-related (与分散注意力有关的) accidents, as well as growing concerns that powerful mobile devices are giving drivers even more reasons to look away from the road.

As part of its recommendation, the National Transportation Safety Board is urging states to ban drivers from using hands-free devices, including wireless headsets. No state now has made laws to ban such activity, but the Board said that drivers faced serious risks from talking on wireless headsets, just as they do by taking a hand off the wheel to hold a phone to their ears.

However, the concern was heightened by increasingly powerful phones that people can use to send e-mails, watch movies and play games.

“Every year, new devices are being on sale.” she said. “People are attracted to update their Facebook page, to play music with cellphone, as if sitting at a desk. But they are driving a car.”

The agency based its recommendation on evidence from its investigation of numerous crashes in which electronic distraction was a major contributing factor.

Ms. Hersman said she understood that this recommendation would be unwelcome in some circles, given the number of drivers who talk and text. But she compared distracted driving to drunken driving and even smoking, which required wholesale cultural shifts to change behavior.

“It’s going to be very unpopular with some people.” she said. “We’re not here to win a popularity contest. We’re here to do the right thing. This is a difficult recommendation, but it’s the right recommendation and it is time.”

The agency’s recommendation is not required for states to adopt such a ban. And it won’t likely be agreed upon by state lawmakers who are unwillingly to anger those who have grown accustomed to using their device behind the wheel.

The ban also deserves attention because it is the first call by a federal agency to end the practice completely, rather than the partial ban that some lawmakers have put in place by allowing hands-free talking.

1.The ban on all cellphone use by drivers was put forward ______.

A.after a long discussion and recommendation

B.after about ten years’ investigation in it

C.because of the most powerful mobile devices

D.for the reason of heading away from the road

2.We can know from the passage that ______.

A.electronic distraction resulted in numerous crashes

B.numerous crashes were caused by drunk driving

C.electronic distraction contributed much to the ban

D.the recommendation was based on electronic distraction

3.Ms Hersman thinks that distracted driving, drunken driving and smoking ______.

A.are just common behaviors                B.can be shifted to behaviors

C.are behaviors to be changed               D.are just cultural behaviors

4.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?

A.Cellphone Ban in Cars

B.Valuable Ban for Cellphones

C.Drivers Ban Cellphones

D.Cellphone Ban while Driving
