The use of mobile phones in certain places is just as antisocial as smoking. Smoking is banned in certain places, so the use of mobile phones should also be banned. To what extent do you agree or disagree? (2015-02-14)

答案
The use of mobile phones is increasing, and many people are almost addicted to being constantly in touch with their friends and constantly available. What is needed is mobile phone etiquette, but that would be difficult for the ’ anything goes’ generation. Apart from some potentially dangerous situations, such as using a phone while driving, mobiles are not strictly dangerous. Smoking is in a different category altogether. It is very harmful to smoke, and if others inhale the smoke it can damage their lungs too. For this reason smoking is banned in public places, in cars, where there are children and so on. There is a huge difference between the antisocial behaviour of some phone users and the risk to health caused by smokers. Good manners used to be thought of as acting in such a way so as not to give offence or make others feel uncomfortable. This would suggest that using a phone in a quiet restaurant, during a concert or play, in a lecture, cinema or place of worship really is rude and therefore unacceptable. Increasingly, such places ask clients and audiences to turn their phone off. They should not need to be asked. Banning something is drastic, and implies that the ban can be enforced. Unfortunately, if a phone rings in the middle of, for example, a concert, the damage is done, the performer’s concentration lost. Asking a member of the audience to leave, because if their phone rang again, it would cause more disruption, but it would make the point. Reminders, and if need be, actions, such as requiring to leave, would perhaps make the point stronger. In a recent concert performance in London a soloist demanded that a parent take their crying child out and complained that the whole atmosphere was lost. The incident made the national papers. The same could happen to selfish phone users! Some trains now have mobile-free carriages, acknowledging that not everyone likes to eavesdrop on a one-sided conversation. A ban should be a last resort, and apply to situations where the use of the phone could actually be dangerous. Examples of this could be an aircraft and in hospital whose sensitive equipment could be affected, as well as the use of mobiles in cars which is actually illegal but widely ignored. In dangerous situations then, mobile phones should be banned and the ban enforced. In other situations there should be firm reminders and penalties for those who are rude enough to ignore the reminder. This should help encourage the development of a code of practice for mobile phones where people are not tied to the machine and accept responsibility for the effect of their actions.
