The rise in smartphones (智能手机) among young people may be having a direct effect on how successful they become as adults.

Research from the University of Nebraska Lincoln has discovered university students check their phones 11 times per lesson on average, and more than 80 percent believe this tech addiction is interfering with their learning.

A quarter of students across five American states also blamed poor grades in exams specifically on the fact that they used mobile devices when they should have been concentrating and revising and these grades could determine the jobs they end up going into.

Barney McCoy, an associate professor of broadcasting at the university, surveyed 777 students at six universities across five states about how they used digital devices in the classroom.

The students were from UNL, the University of Nebraska Lincoln at Omaha in Nebraska, Morningside College in Iowa, the University of North Carolina, the University of Kansas and the University of Mississippi.

Around two thirds said they used phones, tablets and laptops for ＂non-classroom purposes＂ up to ten times during a typical university day, while 15 percent admitted this figure was closer to 30 times.

Among the top reasons why 55 percent of students checked their devices so regularly were staying connected and fighting boredom. Less than half said the devices were used for classwork.

Texting was the most popular distraction (娱乐) technique at 86 percent, while 68 percent said they used their phones to check personal emails. Two thirds used social networks, 38 percent surfed the web and 8 percent admitted playing games when they should have been studying.

Despite eight out of ten students admitting their devices were distracting, fewer than five percent considered it to be a ＂very big＂ distraction.

＂I don’t think students necessarily think it’s a big problem,＂ said McCoy. ＂They think it’s part of their lives.＂

【1】The majority of the students think that using smartphones __________.

A. helps to improve their grades

B. contributes to their poor grades

【2】 How many students surveyed used digital devices for ＂non-classroom purposes＂ about 30 times during a day?

A. About 518. B. About 116.

C. About 427. D. Less than 388.

【3】 Which of the following is TRUE?

A. Barney McCoy surveyed 777 students at the university he works in.

B. A minority of the students said they used digital devices for classwork.

C. Around two thirds admitted they used digital devices because lessons were boring.

【题目】B

The rumor proved all too bitterly true: Park’s Hardware, a downtown institution of Orono for over 100 years, would be closing. Locals cross-examined, and begged Lin, the owner of the store, but in vain. Running a small, local, family-owned hardware business was no longer profit-making. The town’s affection for Park’s Hardware was just not enough to allow it to compete against the giant warehouse stores.

I was one member of the excited masses that began to walk through Park’s as, day by day, the lettering on the front window changed from "20% OFF EVERYTHING" to "30%", "40%", and on and on, until the only things left were the light sockets (插座)and doorknobs.

Compared with giant warehouses, a hardware store is special. I recall the time I was exploring in one giant warehouse for a wireless doorbell that Park’s didn’t carry. I found the thing, but didn’t understand the following note on the package: "Red light indicates condition of the battery." "Excuse me," I said to a clerk, holding the item out, "I can’t seem to find the red light." The man examined it, and said, "Neither can I." I contrasted this experience with one I routinely had at Park’s. "Lin," I’d beg. "Can you ... please ...I don’t know ... do you think...?" And quicker than one could say, "little red light," Lin would spring into action and together we’d sit down to find the solution.

I could buy a single screw(螺丝钉) at Park’s. At a warehouse I have no choice but to buy a span>box of a hundred screws. But I don’t want a box of a hundred screws when all I need is one. I just want to know the location of the little red light, and now that Park’s is gone, I realize that I never will.

【1】 Why did Park’s decide to stop its business?

A. The owner invested in other business.

B. The owner couldn’t make enough money.

C. Its location was not convenient for shopping.

D. It couldn’t win enough affection from the locals.

【2】What did Park’s do before closing?

A. It had a closing down sale. B. It struggled for its reorganization.

C. It distributed its goods to regulars. D. It looked for a new owner.

【3】What does the writer’s experience in Paragraph 3 indicate?

A. The benefit of having more choices.

B. The pressure of competition for Park’s.

C. The good service of Park’s.

D. The responsible working attitude of large stores.

【4】What’s the writer’s tone in writing this passage?

A. Humorous. B. Supportive. C. Critical. D. Regretful.
