A new study suggests that the roundtheclock availability that cell phones have brought to people's lives may take a toll on family life. The study，which followed more than 1,300 adults over 2 years, found that those who consistently used a mobile phone throughout the study period were more likely to report negative “spillover” between work and home life—and，in turn，less satisfaction with their family life.

Spillover essentially(本质上)means that the line between work and home begins to become unclear. Work life may invade home life when a parent is taking jobrelated calls at home，for instance—or family issues may start to take up work time. For example，a child may call mum at work，telling her “microwave exploded”，explained Noelle Chesley，an assistant professor of sociology at the University of WisconsinMilwaukee and the author of the study. The problem with cell phones seems to be that they are allowing for even more spillover between work and home.

This may be especially true for working women，the study found. Among men，consistent use of mobile phones seemed to allow more work issues to creep (潜入)into family time. But for women，the spillover tended to go in both directions. Being “connected” meant that work cut into home time，and family issues came into work life.

Cell phones seem to be opening more lines for stressful exchanges among family members. But there may be ways to control the spillover，according to Chesley. Employers, she said，could look at their policies on contacting employees after hours to make sure their expectations are “reasonable”．For their part，employees could decide that cell phones go off during family time, Chesley said.

1.What does the underlined phrase “take a toll on” probably mean in Paragraph 1?

A．Explaining.

B．Founding.

C． Extending

D．Damaging.

2.According to Chesley，what is the best solution to the problem caused by cell phones?

A．Separate work hours from family time.

B．Refuse to use cell phones.

C．Ignore coming calls during family time.

D．Encourage women to stay at home.

3.We can learn from the passage that ________.

A．cell phones affect men as much as women

B．cell phones seem to be convenient to families

C．cell phones make the line between work and home unclear

D．we can do nothing to solve the problem

4.What is the main idea of the passage?

A．How to control the negative spillover caused by cell phones.

B．How work life invades home life.

C．Consistent use of cell phones makes people feel less satisfied with their work.

D．Cell phones cause negative “spillover” between work life and home life.

阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容回答下列小题。

Cell phones are everywhere-everywhere except Aztec High School.

A new policy put in place at the beginning of the school year by the Aztec School Board forbade cell phones from the school’s campus.

“They are interrupting the educational process,” said Kirk Carpenter, the Aztec High School headmaster. “There is no educational benefit from having them here.”

The new policy started recently afrer long discussions between school and district managers. Aztec school officials said that cell phone use had become a problem during testing sessions.

Carpenter said, “There are also a lot of issues with cell phones. The bottom line(问题的关键) is that they are not in line with what we are trying to do bere, which is providing an education for our students.”

Although the headmaster has heard of no serious objections to the new rule, the complaint he hears most often is parents’ being concerned about contacting students directly in case of an emergency.

“That actually slows down the process,” said Carpenter. “If a parent calls a student’s cell phone, it still needs to go through the office. We can’t just let the student leave school. We don’t know who is on the line. They will still need to call the office to get their children free to leave.”

“If you need to contact a student, you can and they will give a message to the student. It still works well,” he added.

Aztec official Linda Paul said, although she never imagined the effect cell phones would have on education, she supports the decision made by the school. Paul added that AHS is not the only campus in the district to have taken such measures.

Cell phone use for teachers, of course, is a different matter. “We hope our teachers know enough not to be on the phone during class, ” Paul said. “I have never seen one of my teachers on the phone during class. ”

76. What is the best title for the passage? (no more than 10 words)

77.Fill in the blank in the eighth paragraph with proper words or phrase to complete the sentence. (no more than 10 words)

78. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?

In the campus of AHS, the students’ having cell phones doesn’t do good to education.

79. What’s your view about the ban on having cell phones in high school ? Why? ( no more than 30 words)

80.Translate the underlined sentence in the sixth paragraph into Chinese.

There is famous story about British poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge．He was writing a poem when he was interrupted by a knock at the door．

This was an age before telephones．Someone was delivering a message．When Colcridge got back to his poem, he had lost his inspiration．His poetic mood had been broken by the knock on his

door．His unfinished poem, which could otherwise have been a masterpiece, would now never be more than a fragment(碎片,片段)．

This story tells how unexpected communication can destroy an important thought, which brings us to the cell phone．

The most common complaint about cell phones is that people talk on them to the annoyance of people around them．But marc damaging may be the cell phone’s disruption of our thoughts．

We have already entered a golden age of little white lies about our call phones, and this is by and large a healthy, productive development．" I didn't hear it ring" or " I didn't realize my cell phone had shut off" arc among the lies we tell to give ourselves space where we’re beyond reach．

The notion or idea of being unreachable is not a new concept-we havoc "Do Not Disturb" signs on the doors of hotel rooms． So why must we feel guilty when it comes to cell phones? Why must we apologize if we decide to shut off the phone for a while?

The problem is that we come from a long-established tradition of difficulty with distance communication．Until the recent mass deployment of cell phones, it was easy to communicate with someone next to us or a few feet away, but difficult with someone across town, the country or the

globe．We came to take it for granted．

But cell phones make long-distance communication common, and endanger our time by ourselves．Now time alone, or conversation with someone next to us which cannot be interrupted by a phone, is something to be cherished．Even cell phone devotees, myself usually included, can't help at times wanting to throw their cell phone away, or curse the day they were invented．

But we don't and won't, and there really is no need．All that's required to take back our private time is a general social recognition that we have the right to it．

In other words, we have to develop a healthy contempt for the rings of our phones．Given the case of making and receiving cell phone calls, if we don-t talk to the caller right now, we surely will shortly later．

A cell phone call deserves no greater priority than a random word from a person next to us．Though the call on my cell phone may be the one-in-a-million from Steven Spielberg-who has finally read my novel and wants to make it his next movie．But most likely it is not, and I'm better

off thinking about the idea I just had for a new story, or the pizza I’ll eat for lunch．

1.What's the point of the anecdote about poet Coleridge in the first three paragraphs?

A．To direct readers' attention to the main topic．

B．To show how important inspiration is to a poet．

C．To emphasize the disadvantage of not having a cell phone．

D．To encourage readers to read the works of this poet．

2.What does the writer thinks about people telling "white lies" about their cell phones?

A．It is a way of signaling that you don-t like the caller．

B．It is natural to tell lies about small things．

C．It is basically a good way to protect one's privacy．

D．We should feel guilty when we can't tell the truth．

3.According to the author, what is the most annoying problem caused by cell phones?

A．People get so bothered by the cell phone rings that they fail to notice anything else.

B．People feel guilty when they are not able to answer their cell phones.

C．Cell phones interrupt people’s private time.

D．With cell phones it is no longer possible to be unreachable.

4.What does the underlined word “contempt” probably mean?

A．Habit.

B．Disrespect.

C．Like.

D．Value.

5.What does last paragraph suggest?

A．A person who calls us from afar deserves more of our attention.

B．Steven Spielberg once called the author to talk about the author’s novel.

C．You should always finish your lunch before you answer a call on the cell phone.

D．Never let cell phones interfere too much with your life.
