A new study shows an astonishing number of people are using their cellphones on the john(盥洗室). From web browsing and texting to conference calls and online shopping, it seems this technology-driven world leaves no time for bathroom breaks.
11 mark, an integrated marketing agency, surveyed 1 ,000 American mobile users in October. Seventy-five percent of them admitted they used their phones while on the toilet— leaving no mystery as to what happens behind closed stalls.
And this doesn’t just account for the technology-addicted youth. Forty-seven percent of mobile users from the Silent Generation(born 1946 or before), 65 percent of Baby Boomers(1946—1964)and 80 percent of Gen X-ers(1965—1976)use their cell phones in the bathroom.
But as expected, Generation Y has the highest percentage of multitaskers, using their phones and the john at the same time.
Did the same percentage of Gen Y wash their hands afterward? Ninety-two percent of those surveyed reported they washed their hands after using the restroom(perhaps all those "You must wash your hands before returning to work" signs have started to
pay off
).
But unfortunately the same cannot be said for their mobile devices—only 14 percent wash theirphones after using the bathroom. Maybe this calls for a new-age health initiative, requiring public restaurants to change their signs to " You must wash your hands—and your phone—before returning to work. "
And for many, toilet talking and texting was not a just one-time thing, used only in the most dire(急迫的)circumstances. Twenty-four percent of mobile users reported they actually don ’t go to the bathroom without their phones.
In a world where you can ’t even have a moment of solitude(独处)on the toilet, one is forced to wonder, isn’t anything sacred anymore?
It can be inferred from the passage that______.
选项
A、the older people are more addicted to technology
B、the younger people are better multitaskers
C、technology has the same influence on different people
D、technology has a destructive power
答案
B
解析
推断题。根据文章的三、四两段,不难发现作者在列举不同年龄段的人的手机使用情况时,采用的是按照他们出生年代先后的逻辑顺序,因此可以推断Generation Y是最年轻的,也是使用手机的multitaskers(能同时做好几件事的人),因此B为正确答案。在这里,顺便提一点小小的解题技巧,选项中有三个同类(如此题的A,B,C),而另一个显然不同类的(如此题的D),不同类的选项一般说来不会是正确答案,可及时排除,增加正确率。
