Question

9．Anna Schiferl hadn't even got out of bed when she reached for her cell phone and typed a text to her mum，one recent Saturday．Mom was right downstairs in the kitchen．The text？Anna wanted an egg for breakfast．Soon after，Joanna Schiferl called，"If you want to talk to me，Anna，come downstairs and see me？"Anna laughs about it now．"I was kind of being lazy，"she admits．
    These days，many people with cell phones prefer texting to a phone call．And that's creating a communication divide-the talker vs．the texters．Some would argue that it's no big deal．But many experts say the most successful communicators will，of course，have the competence to do both．And they fear that more of us are unable to have-or at least are avoiding-the traditional face-to-face conversations．
    Many professors say it is not common to see students outside of class．"I sit in my office hours lonely now because if my students have a question，they email me，often late at night，"says Rence Hosuton，a professor at the University of Puget Sound in Washington state．"And they never call．"
    As Anna sees it："There are people you'll text，but won't call．It's just a way to stay in touch with each other．"Some believe that scores of texts each day keep people more connected．"The problem is that conversation is not very deep，"says Joseph Grenny，co-author of the book Cultural Conversations：Tools for Talking When Stakes Are High．
"The problem has been there since we've had telephones-probably since the time of a telegraph，"Grenny says．Texting is just the latest way to do that．Though they may not always be so good at deep conversations themselves，Grenny suggests that parents model the behavior for their children and put down their own cell phones．He says that they also should set limits，as Anna's mom did when she made the"no texting to people in the same house"rule．

Answer 1

分析 文章通過一個例子引發(fā)手機短信給我們的生活帶來了便捷，但同時也帶來了一些問題，呼吁我們還是要面對面的溝通和交流．

解答 A C D C
28．A 細節(jié)題．根據第一段的描述If you want to talk to me，Anna，come downstairs and see me？"可知，Joanna對女兒要求是很嚴格的．
29．C 細節(jié)題．在文章的第三段 Many professors say it is not common to see students outside of class．可知，她的學生們都通過短信的方式進行問問題，很少面對面的交流．
30．D推理題．通過最后一段Though they may not always be so good at deep conversations themselves這句話得出Joseph Grenny認為還是要鼓勵面對面的交流而不是通過手機短信．
31．C主旨大意．通過全文的介紹以及最后 一段專家的建議可知，Texting is just the latest way to do that．Though they may not always be so good at deep conversations themselves手機短信可能是最快的方式但不是最好的溝通方式．所以文章探討手機短信所帶來的一些問題．

點評 做閱讀理解時要快速的瀏覽全文，把握文章主旨大意，帶著問題回到原文，尋找細節(jié)或概括相應的答案，最后要理清作者寫作思路．
