31、车时，人们埋头使用手机，影响了人际交流，甚至导致了事故的发生。4答案与解析：C主旨大意题。本文通过描述人们在社交场合或开车时埋头使用手机这一现象，提出了这一现象背后值得思考的话题：手机的过度使用影响到了人们的日常生活和交流，因此选C。5答案与解析：A推理判断题。第二段讲述人们使用手机的情况，比如在聚会上使用手机，以及青少年开车时使用手机发短信的具体事例，因此该段是通过给出一系列的例子来阐述观点的。因此选A。6答案与解析：B细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Facetoface conversations will give us the chance to improve our communica
32、tion skills in the long run”可知选B。7答案与解析：C细节理解题。最后一段谈到人们埋头使用手机的坏处是“lowering peoples ability to communicate”，C项是对该信息的转述，因此选C。.1答案与解析：A根据首句“I teach biology at UNLV.”说明作者是老师，当然是问学生周末过得怎样了。故选A。2答案与解析：D根据下句“He had his wisdom teeth removed.”可知，他拔掉了智齿，这当然是令他感到不快，因此他认为周末过得不够好。故选D。3答案与解析：A根据上文“I cheerfully as
33、ked my students.”可知，这里也该填cheerful才符合上下文语境。故选A。4答案与解析：B根据下文的内容可知，他的问题使我想起了我以前在某个地方读过的东西。故选B。5答案与解析：B根据下文“I choose to be cheerful.”可推出，前面应该选择choice。故选B。6答案与解析：C由“Let me give you an example”可知，我继续对班上60名学生讲。故选C。7答案与解析：C由下文的also可推断，这里是指“除了在UNLV教书外，我还”，in addition to是一个词组，意思是“除以外”，相当于besides，故选C。8答案与解析：B由
