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.
The passage focuses on________.

选项 A、the debate on mobile phones’ radiation
B、the trousers concerned with mobile phones
C、the researches on mobile phones’ dangers
D、the fruit of worldwide studies into mobile phones

答案A

解析 这是一道提炼主旨的题型。文章开篇提及“…trousers fitted with“anti—radiation”pockets for mobile phones.”即带有防手机辐射兜的裤子,之后Jungpeter声称“our intention is not to cash in on consumer fears but provide the consumers with what they want,”即利惠公司这一设计的目的,并非趁机盈利,而是为满足客户对健康的追求。之后围绕“手机辐射是否有危害”进行讨论,所以选项A正确,这是一篇关于手机辐射的讨论。
