Question

The unwanted disturbing of a mobile phone ringing at a critical moment has led to some famously strong reactions
British actor Richard Grif-fiths，stopped a performance at the National Theatre and ordered The offending party to leave
Judge Robert Restaino went considerably further．He was hearing a session of domestic violence offenders in a court when proceedings were interrupted by rings of a phone．
“Everyone is going to jail unless I get that instrument now,” he shouted．
Over the next two hours，the judge entered a period of “incredible madness”．He began by ordering the doors of the court locked，and set the officers to searching for the phone．
When that failed to find the offending item he ordered each of the defendants(被告) present in the room up to his bench and in turn asked them if they  had no idea, he sent each in turn to jail(監(jiān)獄).   
All 46 of them．
When a defendant protested the judge’s actions were not fair to those who didn’t possess the phone，Restaino replied：“I know it isn’t．
Judge’s actions caused chaos．Extra officers had to be drafted into the court to control the crowd．a(chǎn)nd booking officers at the city jail were at full stretch．“We were playing Twister in here”, one said at the time．
Fourteen of the defendants were shackled(束縛 )in irons and sent to the county jail．
The judge cooled off and later that afternoon released all 46．
The “two hours of viral lunacy（瘋狂）”, has probably cost Restaino his job．The commission ruled that he should be removed from his $14,000 job．Restaino now has 30 days to appeal(上訴)．
His lawyer pointed out that until that moment he had served 11 years as a judge without any disciplinary issues．“With the exception of two hours．his record is spotless．”

試題分析：文章談到在關(guān)鍵時刻一個意外的電話鈴聲，會打斷重要的進程，引起當(dāng)事人強烈的反映，這種強烈反映會耽誤大事或把事情辦糟。
1.句意理解題：法官的失常行為引起混亂，被派進法庭控制秩序的官員說“We were playing Twister in here”，意思   是：我們在這里努力控制局面。Twister在這里是“龍卷風(fēng)暴”的意思。選B
2.推理題：文章開頭提到在關(guān)鍵時刻一個意外的電話鈴聲，會打斷重要的進程，引起當(dāng)事人強烈的反映，第二段舉例：英國演員理查德在一個重要時刻接到一個電話時的強烈反映，為了說明上面的觀點，（A項）是為了證明手機的缺點，（B項）責(zé)備一些人濫用手機，（C項）為下文法官的過錯提供一個理由，都不對，故選D。
3.推理題：根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段的句子：The “two hours of viral lunacy（瘋狂）”, has probably cost Restaino his job．可知法官在莊嚴(yán)的法庭上的失常，最有可能的是被解職。選C
4.雖然文章開頭提到了英國演員理查德因一個電話而反應(yīng)劇烈的事實，但不是全文的重點。全文重點談了一個因一個電話而狂怒的法官。選A
5.推理題：從文章的句子When a defendant protested the judge’s actions were not fair to those who didn’t possess the phone，可知“不是所有的被告都情愿地遵守法官羅伯特的要求”符合文中事實。 選D
