The cellphone, a device we have lived with for more than a decade, offers a good example of a popular technology’s unforeseen side effects. More than one billion are (1)_____ around the world, and when asked, their (2)_____ say they love their phones for the safety and convenience (3)_____ provide. People also report that they are (4)_____ in their use of their phones. One opinion survey (5)_____ that "98 percent of Americans say they move away from (6)_____ when talking on a wireless phone in public" (7)_____ "86 percent say they ’never’ or ’rarely’ speak (8)_____ wireless phones" when conducting (9)_____ with clerks or bank tellers.

As the sociologist Erving Gateman observed in another (13)_____, there is something deeply disturbing about people who are" (14)_____ contact" in social situations because they are blatantly refusing to (15)_____ to the norms of their immediate environment. Placing a cellphone call in public instantly transforms the strangers around you (16)_____ unwilling listeners who must cede to your use of the public (17)_____, a decidedly undemocratic effect for so democratic a technology.

选项
A、in
B、out of
C、keeping
D、having
答案
B
解析
本题的考点为对上下文关系的理解和固定词组的用法辨析。根据上下文的内容,这里表达的意思应为"与社会形势脱离接触的人们",所以out of,out of contact"脱离接触",符合文意。in,in contact"接触";keeping"保持",keep contact"保持接触";having"有",have contact"有接触"。因此这三项都不符合文章的意思。
