阅读下面短文, 然后简要回答下面5个问题。要求答语: 结构正确、书写工整、字迹清楚。
When I asked my daughter which item she would keep: the phone, the car, the cooker, the computer,
the TV, or her boyfriend, she said"the phone". Personally I could do without the phone, which makes me
unusual, because the telephone is changing our life more than any other piece of technology.
Point 1 The telephone creates the need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more
traffic. My daughter comes home from school at 4:00 and then spends an hour on the phone talking to the
very people she has been at school with all day. If the phone didn't exist, would she have anything to talk
about?
Point 2 The mobile phone means that we are never alone."The mobile saved my life," says Lucy. She
had an accident in her Volvo. Trapped inside, she managed to make the call that brought the ambulance.
Point 3 The mobile removes our secret. It allows Marketing Manager of a large company to ring his sales
staff all around the world at any time of day to ask where they are, where they are going, and how their last
meeting went.
Point 4 The telephone separates us. A person said,"We worked in separate offices but I could see him
through the window. It was easy to get his number. We were so near-but we didn't meet for the first two
weeks!"
Point 5 The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives. Today we can talk to several complete
strangers at the same time on chat lines. We can talk across the world. We can even talk to astronauts while
they're space-walking. And with the phone line hooked up to the computer, we can access the Internet, the
biggest library on Earth.
