Question

Cellphones help us easily find people anywhere at any time. However, using cellphones too often may cause cancer. (1) It’s reported that people who used a cellphone for 10 years or more were more likely to get brain cancer.
The suggestions below may help you reduce the risk(風險) of cancer:
◆When using your cellphone, try to keep it away from your body as much as possible. Don’t put it under your pillow(枕頭) or on a bedside table when you sleep.
◆When you’re on the cellphone, use the speaker. In this way, you have just 1/100^th of the contact with radiation you have when you hold (2) it to your ear. An earphone is also a good idea.
◆Try to keep your conversations short. If you need to talk longer, use an ordinary phone instead.
◆Change ears when you’re using your cellphone. Before putting it to your ear, wait until the person you are calling picks up the phone.
◆Your phone gives out radiation when you talk or text, but not when you’re listening or getting messages. (4) 多聽和少說能降低癌癥風險。
◆Do not use your cellphone when the signal is weak or when moving at a high speed, for example in a car or train. At high speeds your phone is trying to pick up signals, and this increases the radiation it gives out.

試題分析：本文主要講的是使用手機可能會患癌癥，并給了一些使用手機的建議，以減少患癌癥的風險。1.使用手機時，盡可能遠離身體；2.打電話時，使用揚聲器；3.縮短談話的時間；4.當你使用電話時，換一下耳朵；5. 多聽和少說能降低癌癥風險；6.不要在信號弱或者移動時使用手機。
小題1:It’s reported that“據報道”； who used a cellphone for 10 years or more“使用手機長達十年甚至更久的”，were more likely to“更有可能”， get brain cancer.“的腦癌”
做定語修飾名詞people。故此句的意思是：據報道，使用手機長達十年甚至更久的人更可能得腦癌。
小題2:根據Don’t put it under your pillow(枕頭) or on a bedside table when you sleep.可知當你睡覺時，不要把手機放在枕頭下或者床邊。故此處手機不應該放的位置是Under your pillow or on a bedside table.
小題3:根據When you’re on the cellphone, use the speaker 可知當打電話時用揚聲器，而不是把手機放在耳朵旁。故此處it代指The/ Your cellphone.
小題4:“多聽和少說”做主語，故用動名詞短語Listening more and talking less，能降低，用can lower。癌癥風險用短語the risk of cancer 。按照陳述句的詞序：主語+謂語+賓語，故此處為：Listening more and talking less can lower the risk of cancer.
小題5:根據However, using cellphones too often may cause cancer.和The suggestions below may help you reduce the risk(風險) of cancer:可知本文主要講的是使用手機可能會患癌癥，并給了一些使用手機的建議，以減少患癌癥的風險。故此處為It’s about some suggestions on cellphone use/ to reduce the risk of cancer.
