　　Ⅲ.閱讀理解

　　(2024·江西六校高三聯考)

　　Most people will answer a ringing phone.Usually you don’t know who is phoning or how urgent their business is，so a ringing phone is difficult to ignore.In one experiment，a researcher wrote down the numbers of several public phones in stations and airports.Then he called the numbers.Someone nearly always answered.When he asked why，people usually said，“Because it rang.”

　　A few years ago in New Jersey，a man with a rifle killed 13 people.Armed police surrounded his house but he refused to come out.A reporter found out the phone number of the house and called.The man put down his rifle and answered the phone.“What do you want？” he said，“I’m really busy right now.”

　　Imagine you are at work and the phone is ringing in someone else’s office.Do you answer it or not？In one survey on telephone use,51% of participants told researchers that they did.We can’t ignore the phone and for that reason，it forces its way into our life.It interrupts what we are doing and on top of that，the caller is often someone we don’t really want to talk to.However，in the survey,58% said they never took the phone off the hook，and 67% didn’t mind if someone called during a television programme.For 44% it wasn’t a problem if someone rang during a meal，while only 28% were annoyed or upset.If someone phoned in the middle of the night,40% told researchers that they got nervous or frightened，while around 30% got angry.

　　Of course，when someone is really annoying，you can choose to hang up on him/her.This is in fact one of the rudest things you can do on the phone，but 79% said they were prepared to do it in some cases.Only 6% told researchers they never hung up on people.

　　A．in order to help him gather the data

　　2．The gunman answered the phone because________.

　　A．he decided not to give up his resistance to the police

　　B．he intended to be friendly with the media

　　C．he wanted to tell the reporter that he was too busy to offer any information

　　D．he tended to answer a ringing phone

　　3．According to Paragraph 3，most people________when they were doing their work or watching

　　television.

　　A．refused to answer the phone in someone else’s office

　　B．couldn’t ignore the phone

　　C．minded the ringing of the phone

　　D．kept the phone ringing

　　4．What is implied by the sentence “79% said they were prepared to do it in some cases”？

　　A．They also agreed to hang up on others regardless of rudeness.

　　B．They were prepared to punish those rude callers.

　　C．They were annoying rude callers.

　　D．They were going to hang on annoying phones.

　　5．The purpose of the survey is to find out________.

　　A．how the phone interrupts people’s work

　　B．what role the phone plays in people’s lives

　　C．why people mind a ringing phone sometimes

　　D．when the phone communication is more welcome
