根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项, 并在答题卡上写出答案。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Riding a London subway, a person from China will notice one major difference: In London, commuters (乘车上下班的人) do not look at each other. 1. That's not rudeness— people are just too busy to bother looking.
Busy doing what, you ask? Well, they're certainly not using the time for a moment of quiet reflection. Nor are they reading a book. 2. Today the only acceptable form of book on the London Underground is an e-book.
3. Since the launch of the iPhone in 2007, over 40,000-yes, that's 40,000-"apps" (programs downloaded for the iPhone) have been designed.
Commuters love them because they are the perfect time-filler. One "app",called ishoot, is a game that features tanks. Another one, Tube Exits, tells passengers where to sit on the train to be closest to the exit of their destination. Isteam clouds the iphone screen when you breathe into the microphone. 4.
For those without an iPhone, another Apple product, the iPod, may be the distraction of choice. It's not just teenagers who "plug in" to their music-iPods are a popular way to pass the time for all ages.
And if games, e-books and music aren't enough to keep you occupied. Then perhaps you would prefer a film? The development of palm DVD technology means many commuters watch their favorite TV show or film on the way to work.
5.
A.With this distraction, it’s amazing that people still remember to get off the train.
B.New technology has replaced quiet habits.
C.You can then write the “steam” on your phone screen.
D.Technology is changing the way London commuters spend their traveling time.
E.In fact, eye contact is avoided at all times.
F.Apple must earn a fortune from London commuters.
G.Modern Londoner are fancy victims.
