A young man shows an 【C6】______ e-mail to the woman next to him, and then 【C7】______ read the online edition of The Wall Street Journal. Distraction(注意力分散) is 【C8】______ new. As long as there have been schools, students have whispered, passed notes and even 【C9】______ of the window and daydreamed. But the arrival of the laptop has introduced new 【C10】______ for diversion or distraction, and wireless introduces an even broader range of distraction.

He said the benefits of the technology 【C17】______ the problems. He 【C18】______ that it might even be making him a better teacher. He takes the threat of 【C19】______ his students to e-mail and online newspapers as a 【C20】______ to keep lectures interesting and lively.
