问题     U. S jeans maker Levi Strauss & Co. denied it was playing on consumer fears by launching a line of trousers fitted with "anti - radiation (防辐射) " pockets for mobile phones. The trousers, with a lining which the makers say shield (防护物) against radiation, are designed by Dockers, a brand name of Levi Strauss. " We are not implying in any way that mobile phones are dangerous. Our intention is not to cash in on consumer fears but provide the consumers with what they want they want," Levi’s European communications manager Cedric Jung-peter said. The design was the fruit of extensive market research showing that the fashion conscious was also health conscious, Jungpeter said. "The debate is open. Although no study has proved mobile phones are harmful, no study has proved the contrary either," he added. Worldwide studies into the possible dangers of mobile phones produce often conflicting conclusions. A recent one carried out by Australian researchers over a three - year period showed that radio e-missions from mobile phone did not trigger the growth of tumors in mice, and therefore probably did not do so in humans either. And another Australian study concluded cellular phones could foster tumor growth. Swedish research published recently concluded that long - term users of first generation mobile phones faced an up to 80 percent greater risk of developing brain tumors than non - users. But a Danish study last year of 400, 00 mobile phone users showed no increased cancer risk.
We may infer from the passage that________.

选项 A、anti - radiation trousers will fuel mobile phone debate
B、long - term users of mobile phones faces a greater cancer risk than non - users
C、radiation from mobile phones could foster tumor growth in mice
D、anti - radiation trousers are a fearful sign that mobile phones are dangerous

答案A

解析 同样是一道提炼主旨的题型。文章由防辐射裤子引出对手机辐射危害性的讨论,接着提到“The debate is open.”和“全世界移动电话可能具有的危害性进行研究通常得出不一致的结论”,可见选项A,“防辐射裤将人们对手机的讨论更加激烈”符合题意。文中讲到全世界进行研究移动电话可能具有的危害性,没有达到一致的结论,而且从后文中对不同国家的研究表明,长期使用手机对肿瘤患病几率的是否有影响尚未确定,所以选项B不符合。文中还提到“澳大利亚的实验表明手机辐射并不会使老鼠患肿瘤”,可见选项C也不准确。另外,文章中Jungpeter也强调了设计带防辐射裤兜的裤子只是想要满足客户的需求,并非想说手机是危险品,可见选项D也不是准确的。
