13.LONDON-To get a mobile phone as a gift for 14thbirthday,Lucy declared to her parents that everyone else has one.Her parents gave in.
Curious to know how her daughter would use the phone,Jane Bidder,the mother,followed Lucy to the school bus in the morning.The bus seats 20,of whom half have a mobile phone.One rings and several adolescent owners fumble with their bags.
Many parents have just come to realize that the mobile phone is no longer for traveling businessmen-it is as likely to be found in school bags.
The mobile phone seems to have become something essential for today's teens in Britain,according to a survey published last week,by NOP,a leading market research company in Britain.Research found that 66percent of 16-year-olds now have access to a mobile phone.
The mobile phone has been turned into a secret messaging service by teen users.When they are talking on the mobile,their parents are not able to eavesdrop on the second line.
The interview with 2,019young people aged 7to 16found that they favor the text messaging service because they offer a secret way of keeping in touch.The days of secret notes in the classroom are dying out.
For example,"cul"means"see you later";"lol"means"laugh out loud'; and"2nite"is the abbreviation of"tonight".All these are based on shorthand phrases on the Internet.

解答 64.B主旨題.文章第一、二段講述了 Lucy 要求父母給她買手機(jī)的事例,接著第三段"Many parents have just come to realize that the mobile phone is no longer for traveling businessmen-it is as likely to be found in school bags."引出話題,由此可知作者舉例 Lucy 的故事是為了告訴讀者英國父母逐漸接受孩子們擁有手機(jī)這一現(xiàn)象,故正確答案為B.

66.C推斷題.由第六段第一句"The interview with 2,019 young people aged 7 to 16 found that they favor the text messaging service because they offer a secret way of keeping in touch."可知短信服務(wù)給青少年們提供一種秘密的交流方式,由此推斷,當(dāng)他們講電話時,父母再也不能"偷聽"了,因此 eavesdrop 意為"偷聽",故正確答案為C.
67.C細(xì)節(jié)題.由第六段"The interview with 2,019 young people aged 7 to 16 found that they favor the text messaging service because they offer a secret way of keeping in touch.The days of secret notes in the classroom are dying out."可知青少年們更喜歡短信交流,而傳紙條已經(jīng)絕跡了,故正確答案為C.
