Cup of coffee? No, its the third most addictive thing in modern life, the cell phoneAnd experts say it is becoming more difficult for many people to curb their longing to hug it more tightly than most of their personal relationshipsWith its shiny surface, its smooth and satisfying touch, its air of complexity, the cell phone connects us to the world even as it disconnects us from people three feet awayIn just the past couple of years, the cell phone has challenged individuals, employers, phone makers and counselors（顾问）in ways its inventors in the late 1940s never imaginedThe costs are becoming even more evident, and I dont mean just the monthly billDrChris Knippers, a counselor at the Betty Ford Center in Southern California, reports that the overuse of cell phones has become a social problem not much different from other harmful addictions: a barrier to one-on-one personal contact, and an escape from realityIt sounds extreme, but weve all witnessed the evidence: The person at a restaurant who talks on the phone through an entire meal, ignoring his kids around the table; the woman who talks on the phone in the car, ignoring her husband; the teen who texts messages all the way home from school, avoiding contact with kids all around himIs it just rude, or is it a kind of unhealthiness? And pardon me, but how is this improving the quality of life?Jim Williams, an industrial sociologist based in Massachusetts, notes that cell-phone addiction is part of a set of symptoms in a widening gulf of personal separationHe points to a study by Duke University researchers that found one-quarter of Americans say they have no one to discuss their most important personal business withDespite the growing use of phones, e-mail and instant messaging, in other words, Williams says studies show that we dont have as many friends as our parents. “Just as more information has led to less wisdom, more acquaintances via the Internet and cell phones have produced fewer friends,” he saysIf the cell phone has truly had these effects, its because it has become very widespreadConsider that in 1987, there were only 1 million cell phones in useToday, something like 300 million Americans carry themThey far outnumber wired phones in the United States58. Which of the following best explains the title of the passage?A. Cell phone users smoke less than they used to B. Cell phones have become as popular as cigarettesC. More people use cell phones than smoke cigarettes D. Cell phones have become as addictive as cigarettes59. The underlined word “curb” in Paragraph 2 means _A. ignoreB. control C. develop D. rescue60. The example of a woman talking on the phone in the car supports the idea that A. cell phones do not necessarily bring people together B. talking on the phone while driving is dangerous C. women use cell phones more often than men D. cell phones make one-on-one personal contact easy CResearchers found that walking around with a forced smile and fake happiness simply leads to people feeling unhappier. So, putting a brave face on your sadness could be harmful. The research also found that women suffered more than men when pretending to be happy.Dr. Brent Scott, who led the study, said employers should take note because forcing workers to smile when dealing with the public can result in bad outcomes. He said. “Smiling for the sake of smiling can lead to emotional tiredness, and thats bad for the organization.” He also said the research showed customer-service workers who had “fake smiles” throughout the day fell into a bad mood and didnt want to work, so their productivity dropped.The study is one of the first of its kind to examine emotional expressions over a period of time and compare the different effects on men and women. Dr. Scotts team examined the effects of “surface acting”, or fake smiling, compared to “deep acting”, or making people smile by thinking of pleasant memories.Dr. Scott said, “Women were harmed more by surface acting, meaning their moods worsened even more than mens. However, they were helped more by deep acting, which means their moods improved more by thinking of pleasant memories.”According to Dr. Scott women tend to suffer more when pretending to be happy because they are expected to be more emotionally expressive than men. Therefore, forcing a smile while feeling down is more likely to go against their normal behavior and cause more harmful feelings.Although deep acting can improve moods a little in the short term, Dr. Scott says, its not a long-term solution to feeling unhappy. “There have been some suggestions that if you do this over a long period you start to feel unreal. Youre trying to develop positive emotions, but at the end of the day you may not feel like yourself any more.”61. Dr. Scotts findings may be important to some employers because _. A. their workers dont want to work all the time B. they want more female workers than male workers C. their workers worsen their moods at the end of the day D. they tend to force their workers to smile in public62. According to the passage, Dr. Scotts study _. A. is meaningful as there havent been many similar ones B. aimed to make people more productive C. examined more women than men D. is supported by some big employers 63. It is implied in the passage that deep acting _. A. cannot improve our moods at all B. does harm to our feelings in the long run C. makes people happy by feeling like another person D. has no effect on men 64. What is the best title for the passage? A. An important suggestion for workers.B. Women shouldnt be forced to smile. C. Fake smiling makes people unhappy.D. Why p
