?no, its the third most addictive thing in modem life, the cell phone. and experts say it is becoming more difficult for many people to curb their longing to hug it more tightly than most of their personal relationships. with 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 away.in 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 imagined. the costs are becoming more and more evident, and i dont mean just the monthly bill. dr. chris 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 reality. sounds extreme, but we ve 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 him. is 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, 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 with. despite 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. 9.which of the following best explains the title of the passage? a.cell phone users smoke less than they used to. b. more people use cell phones than they used to c.cell phones have become as addictive as cigarettes d.using cell phone is just as cool as smoking cigarettes10.the underlined word curb in paragraph 2 means “_. ” acontrolbignorecdevelopdrescue11. the example of a woman talking on the phone in the car supports the idea that_ . awomen use cell phones more often than men btalking on the phone while driving is dangerous ccell phones make one - on - one personal contact easy dcell phones do not necessarily bring people together d history is full of cases where dreams have been a pathway to creativity and discovery.a striking example is provided by dr.otto loewi, a pharmacologist and winner of a nobel prize.loewi had spent years studying the chemical transmission of nerve impulses (脉搏). a great breakthrough in his research came when he dreamed of an experiment three nights in a row.the first two nights he woke up and wrote down the experiment quickly and untidily on a pad.but the next morning, he couldnt tell what the notes meant.on the third night, he got up after having the dream.this time, instead of making notes he went straight to his laboratory and performed the crucial experiment.loewi later said that if the experiment had occurred to him while awake he would have rejected it. loewis experiment gives some insight into using dreams to produce creative solutions.inhibitions (拘谨) are reduced during dreaming, which may be especially useful in solving problems that require a fresh point of view. being able to take advantage of dreams for problem solving is improved if you set yourself before retiring. before you go to bed, try to think intently about a problem you wish to solve. bury yourself in the problem by stating it clearly and reviewing all relevant information.then use the suggestions listed in the previous section to catch your dreams.although this method is not guaranteed to produce a novel solution or a new insight, it is certain to be an adventure.about half of a group of college students using the method for a week recalled a dream that helped them solve a personal problem.12. the main idea of this passage is that_. a. very little is really known about the meaning of dreams b. dreams can be useful in producing creative solutions to ones problems c. it is possible to catch ones dreams by planning before going to sleep d. loewis experiment helped in the study of transmission of nerve impulses13. the first paragraph is mainly organized by_. a. telling in time order about one mans research b. summarizing the work of one researcher c. comparing and exploring historical cases d. classifying types of experiments14. if loewi had thought of the experiment while awake, he would have_. a. asked someone else to do it b. thought it was a wise idea c. tried it out on his own d. thought it was a bad idea15.according to the passage, the author seems to be in favor of_. a. nervous feelings before dreams b. avoiding scientific experiments c. seeking creative solutions d. becoming a famous scientist第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 before
