Millions of people are putting their lives at risk by texting their friends as they walk along busy streets, reported the Daily Mail.
One in ten 41 users has already been 42 because they are so lost in their phones that they fail to 43 lamp-posts or cars, according to Joanna Lumdsen of Aston University.
To test the danger of texting while 44 , Lumdsen did an experiment in which volunteers followed a 45 path while trying to 46 in a message on the phone.
Around them, screens 47 up instructions to avoid stepping on 48 colors on the floor.
She found that people missed one in five 49 because they were so busy with their phones.
“In 50 life this means that one in five lamp-posts or moving cars is 51
to go unnoticed by people 52 and walking,” she said.
Her research is looking for ways cell phone makers could improve the 53
of phones to make texting on the move 54 . That could 55 easier-to-use voice operated phones, or phones that respond to gestures.
“The safest thing is 56 people not to text while they walk along,” she said. “ 57 a lot of people in business are 58 to carry a mobile phone and be in 59 24 hours a day, seven days a week. They are under pressure to reply to calls 60 , and to respond to text messages and emails straight away.

The neglected baby is crying alone. The young man, suffering from a lack of sleep, threatens suicide. The marriage fails because of the husband’s crazy behavior. Is this just another story of social breakdown in the modern age? Not really. But they are the effects of a real social problem—Internet Addiction(沉溺), or, Internet Addiction Disorder. The addiction is obvious from the popularity of one game alone: “Halo 2”. It’s a first-person shooter developed by Bungie Studios for the Xbox video game console. By early 2005, 1 million players worldwide had clocked up an amazing 100 million hours on the game, among which are 360, 000 Chinese players. China has about 94 million regular Internet users. Of these, a survey suggested, 4.4 million are teenagers who are so addicted to it that they neglect anything else. Video gamers who have gone too far show symptoms similar to those of alcohol and drug abusers. “The real world meant nothing to me when I was fully involved in online games. I lost track of time, space, hunger, pain, and everything,” explained Liu Pinyi, a 19-year-old college dropout. She has had treatment in Beijing for her addiction. What makes it similar to drugs is that online game addicts also develop a chemical imbalance in their brains. Gaming stimulates the production of a chemical compound that produces delighted or pleasant feelings. When they’re away from the screen, they suffer feelings of anxiety and headaches. Experts say young people are attracted to video games partly because they are partly because they are pushed right into the center of the action. This allows them to overcome a lack of confidence which people at that age can often suffer from. 小题1:What’s the writer’s main purpose in writing the first paragraph?

According to the white paper, more than 70 percent of China"s netizens say they are suffering from mental problems such as bad memory, anxiety, depression, and a lack of confidence. And a similar 72 percent of them also say they are often suffering from diseases like insomnia, dizziness, joint degeneration and achings. Meanwhile, another 53 percent of netizens believe that white collar employees who have bigger work pressures are more likely to catch mental problems. The white paper adds, doing almost no sports and spending long time surfing online lead to the above mentioned health problems among netizens. Only 9 percent of netizens take up sports on weekends while over 40 percent stay home, surfing. And only 16 percent netizens can assure more than eight hours" sleeping daily.

A large number of women in Western European countries wish that they were born men. The number is said as high as 60% in Germany. “Women often wish that they had the same chance as men have, and believe it is still men’s world.” Said Dr James Holden, one of the scientists who did the study. Anne Harper has a very good job for an international oil company. She also believes in“Women’s Liberation(解放)”. “I don’t wish that I were a man,” she says, “and I don’t think many women do .But I do wish that people would stop looking down upon us women. At work, for example, we often do the work that men do but we get less paid. There are still a lot of jobs that are usually the best ones that open only to men. If you’re a man, you have a much better chance of leading an exciting life. How many women pilots are there or engineers or scientists?” 小题1:What can we learn from the first paragraph?

Would you eat a ready meal from the fridge rather than cook from scratch (从头开始 )? Have you been doing internet shopping rather than going to the stores? What can"t you be bothered to do? A study into how lazy British people are has found more than half of adults are so idle they"d catch the lift rather than climb two flights of stairs. Just over 2000 people were quizzed by independent researchers at Nuffield Health, Britain"s largest health charity. The results were surprising. About one in six people surveyed said if their remote control was broken, they would continue watching the same channel rather than get up. More than one third of those questioned said they would not run to catch a bus. Worryingly, of the 654 respondents (回答者) with children, 64% said they were often too tired to play with them. This led the report to conclude that it"s no wonder that one in six children in the UK are classified as obese (肥胖) before they start school. Dr Sarah Dauncey, medical director of Nuffield Health, said: "People need to get fitter, not just for their own sake, but for the sake of their families, friends and obviously their pets too. "If we don"t start to take control of this problem, a whole generation will become too unfit to perform even the most basic of tasks." And Scotland"s largest city, Glasgow, was shamed as the laziest city in the UK, with 75% surveyed admitting they do not get enough exercise, followed closely by Birmingham and Southampton, both with 67%. The results pose (对... 提出) serious challenges for the National Health Service, where obesity-related illnesses such as heart disease and cancer have been on a steady increase for the past 40 years and are costing billions of pounds every year. 小题1:For the interest of country people should .
