Read the passage below and choose the correct answer to each of the following questions:
DON'T CALL ME
You can't go anywhere these days without hearing the buzz of mobile phone. If that noise isn't enough to

drive you mad, have you noticed that people who use mobile phones have louder voices than everyone else?
When you shout that loudly, you don't need a phone, the person you are calling will probably hear you anyway.
People who have mobile phones say that they can't live without them, but they managed quite well before
they had them. You cannot escape them; you hear them on buses and trains, in street, at the supermarket, even in
places where you expect it to be quiet, like cinemas, theaters and libraries. Is there anything more annoying than
having to listen to unnecessarily loud voices talking to people who aren't there, while you are trying to enjoy a
pleasant diner at a "quiet" restaurant? I find it rude and antisocial. Even school kids have mobile phones now. A
teacher I know told me not long ago that lessons were often interrupted by phones ringing.
More seriously, mobile phones can be dangerous. According to the police, about a quarter of all road
accidents are caused by people driving while using mobile phones.

C. Children shouldn't talk loudly during lessons. D. There are interruptions to lessons because of mobile
phone.
