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(风险) 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(枕头) 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) 多听和少说能降低癌症风险。
◆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.

试题分析：本文主要讲的是使用手机可能会患癌症，并给了一些使用手机的建议，以减少患癌症的风险。1.使用手机时，尽可能远离身体；2.打电话时，使用扬声器；3.缩短谈话的时间；4.当你使用电话时，换一下耳朵；5. 多听和少说能降低癌症风险；6.不要在信号弱或者移动时使用手机。
小题1:It’s reported that“据报道”； who used a cellphone for 10 years or more“使用手机长达十年甚至更久的”，were more likely to“更有可能”， get brain cancer.“的脑癌”
做定语修饰名词people。故此句的意思是：据报道，使用手机长达十年甚至更久的人更可能得脑癌。
小题2:根据Don’t put it under your pillow(枕头) or on a bedside table when you sleep.可知当你睡觉时，不要把手机放在枕头下或者床边。故此处手机不应该放的位置是Under your pillow or on a bedside table.
小题3:根据When you’re on the cellphone, use the speaker 可知当打电话时用扬声器，而不是把手机放在耳朵旁。故此处it代指The/ Your cellphone.
小题4:“多听和少说”做主语，故用动名词短语Listening more and talking less，能降低，用can lower。癌症风险用短语the risk of cancer 。按照陈述句的词序：主语+谓语+宾语，故此处为：Listening more and talking less can lower the risk of cancer.
小题5:根据However, using cellphones too often may cause cancer.和The suggestions below may help you reduce the risk(风险) of cancer:可知本文主要讲的是使用手机可能会患癌症，并给了一些使用手机的建议，以减少患癌症的风险。故此处为It’s about some suggestions on cellphone use/ to reduce the risk of cancer.
