摘要:The passage is mainly about . A.different uses of mobile phones B.a successful mobile-phone maker C.effects of mobile phones on children D.school rules for the use of mobile phones 3 At one time,computers were expected largely to remove the need for paper copies of documentsbecause they could be stored electronically.But for all the texts that are written,stored and sent electronically,a lot of them are still ending up on paper. It is difficult to measure the quantity of paper used as a result of use of Internet-connected computers,although just about anyone who works in an office can tell you that when e-mail is introduced,the printers start working overtime.“I feel in my bones this revolution is causing more trees to be cut down, says Ted Smith of the Earth Village Organisation. Perhaps the best sign of how computer and Internet use pushes up demand for paper comes from the high-tech industry itself,which sees printing as one of its most promising new markets.Several Internet companies have been set up to help small businesses print quality documents from a computer.Earlier this week Hewlett-Packard Co.announced a plan to develop new technologies that will enable people to print even more so they can get a hard copy of a business document,a medical record or just a one-line e-mail,even if they are nowhere near a computer.As the company sees it,the more use of the Internet the greater demand for printers. Does all this mean environmental concernshave been forgotten?Some activists suggest people have been led to believe that a lot of dangers to the environment have gone away.“I guess people believe that the problem is taken care of,because of recycling, said Kelly Quirke,director of the Rainforest Action Network in San Francisco.Yet Quirke is hopeful that high-tech may also prove helpful.He says printers that print on both sides are growing in popularity.The action group has also found acceptable paper made from materials other than wood,such as agricultural waste.

     A newspaper in Helsinki, Finland, recently published a cartoon of a baby with a mobile phone, telling
his parents that his diaper (尿布) needed changing. But it's hardly a joke. Helsinki is home to Nokia, the
mobile-phone maker. It's one of the most "mobile" cities in the world: About 92 percent of its households
have at least one mobile phone. And the kids start young.
     "A relatively normal age to get a mobile phone is now 7," says Jan Virkki, marketing manager for a
mobile-phone company. Among the second graders at the Kulosaari Elementary School, the most popular
object of desire this year is not a Barbie or a Gameboy. It is a Nokia mobile phone with a picture of their
own choice on the screen.
      "One of the first things we discuss when school starts is the rules for mobile phones," says Tiia Korppi,
a teacher. Among the rules: You have to put it away out of sight. You cannot turn it on. You cannot send
text messages to your friends, or play amusing tunes (令人发笑的曲调) in class, or call your parents or
call for a pizza during history.
1. The author uses the newspaper cartoon to show that _____.
A. he is good at telling jokes
B. he cares much for children
C. mobile phones are toys for new-born babies
D. mobile phones are widely used in Finland
2. The passage is mainly about _____.
A. different uses of mobile phones
B. a successful mobile-phone maker
C. effects of mobile phones on children
