A. Choose the best answer（根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案): ( 12分)

Do you have a mobile phone? Do you send text messages to your friends

2013年上海市静安区中考英语一模试题及答案

and family?

Text messaging or ‘texting’ is becoming very popular. But, scientists have discovered that texting can give us problems with our hands. Be careful! Too much texting can cause swelling (肿胀) in our thumbs and wrists. Our thumbs are not made for pushing small buttons, over and over. Scientists call this problem RSI.

We spoke to a doctor called Harriet Wilson, who treats many patients with RSI. She said we needed to see how much time we were spending in typing text messages. If we are spending more than 10-15 minutes , we could have problems in the future.

We also talked with Dr Harjeet Deepa who treats RSI patients. He told us that the youngest patient she had treated was a five-year-old girl. She wasn’t doing well at school, so her parents took her for treatment. It was found that she had such bad RSI in her hands, she couldn’t hold a pencil.

As mobile phones develop, they are getting smaller with buttons closer together. Texting with a smaller phone is worse than using a larger phone with bigger buttons. Using a computer keyboard and playing video games can also cause the same problem. So, more and more people could find themselves with RSI.

Many university students and teenagers have RSI, as they do not know the risks (冒险) of spending so much time using computers, video games and mobile phones. If we don’t do something about this, too many young people could grow up in terrible pain.

74. What causes the problem RSI?

A) More people have mobile phones.

C) People type too many text messages.

A) The writer and a little girl

C) Three scientists B) Texting is becoming very popular. D) Our thumbs were made for pushing buttons. B) Harriet Wilson and Harjeet Deepa D) Four doctors 75. _______ were interviewed about the problem RSI in this passage.

76. The underlined part “ in the third paragraph means “________”.

A) right away B) at one time

C) finally D) immediately

77. The little girl who Dr. Harjeet Deepa treated couldn’t hold a pencil because ________.

A) she didn’t go to school

B) she was only five years old D) she suffered a lot from RSI B) story book D) detective story C) she had no thumbs at all A) comic strip C) science book 78. You can probably read this passage in a ________.

79. From the passage we know _________.

A) it is better to use a larger phone with bigger buttons

B) it is worse to spend less time typing the text messages

C) using the computer keyboard will never cause the problem RSI

D) university students who have RSI know it’s dangerous to do too much texting.

The story happened when I was 12. My mother, my sisters and I left Heathrow airport to go on a holiday. My dad came to the airport to say goodbye. Unluckily he was working and could not come with us. We got on the plane. The take-off was fine. Later I was busy eating when the plane shook. My plate went flying. Most of the other passengers’ plates fell, too. I was thinking that there must be food everywhere. All of the lights in the plane went off. The plane kept on bumping. And I was frightened that there might be a serious problem. I wished that my father was with us. Then we heard the captain of the plane. He said, “I’m sorry, ladies and gentlemen. We are going through a storm. Please stay in your seats.” Everybody had to stay in their seats. There was no one who could clear away our plates and food. My drink had fallen on my trousers and I was so uncomfortable. There was thunder and lightning outside. We had to sit like that for more than an hour while the plane was bumping along. After a while I wanted to go to the toilet. So did everyone else. We all tried to stay calm and polite. It seemed like hours before we were allowed to move again and clear up. I did not feel well after all that bumping around. Luckily the plane was all right and we landed safely an hour later. We later found out that we had passed through one of the most terrible storms ever over the Mediterranean Sea!
