新素材 智能手机校园禁令 California, a state in the United States, passed a new law to restrict（限制）student smartphone use in September, 2024. School districts are required to pass rules by July 1, 2026. The new rules should restrict or ban students from using smartphones on school grounds or while students are under the supervision(监督) of school employees. The law makes California the latest state to try to reduce student phone access. Florida, Louisiana, Indiana, and several other states have already passed laws aimed at restricting student phone use at school.
The new law is aimed at helping students focus on schoolwork, social development, and the world in front of them, not their screens, when they're in school. It is also meant to address the mental health effects that social media can have on children.
But some people have raised worries that school cellphone bans could cut parents off from their children if there is an emergency(紧急情况)! And an official said that many of the students do not always like the rules, which is in part a sign of how hooked they have become to phones.
The new law comes after an earlier law of the state that was passed in 2019. The 2019 law allowing school districts to restrict student's phone access makes exceptions(例外) for emergencies. The new law does not change that.
ShaKenya Edison from the Santa Barbara Unified School District, which put in place a ban on student phone use in class during the 2023-to-2024 school year, said teachers have noted that their students have been less distracted(注意力分散的) in class since the start of the ban. Tarik McFall, head teacher of Sutter Middle School in Folsom, said that before his school's cellphone ban, students recorded fights, filmed entertainment videos and spent lunchtime looking at their phones. "The ban has totally changed the culture of the school. To have them put away, to have them power off ... it has been a great thing," McFall said.

A. To improve emergency communication.

3. How does the new law deal with the exceptions for emergencies in the 2019 law?
A. It keeps them.

4. What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph?

答案
时文阅读
1.B 2.D 3.A 4.C
【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。加利福尼亚州通过了一项新法规，该法规限制学生在校使用智能手机，以促进学生专注于课堂学习并改善其心理健康。
1. B 细节理解题。根据第二段“The new law is aimed at helping students focus on schoolwork, social development, and the world in front of them, not their screens, when they're in school.”可知，新法规旨在帮助学生在学校专注于学业、社会发展和眼前的世界，而不是分心于手机屏幕。故选 B。
2. D 词义猜测题。根据画线处上句“And an official said that many of the students do not always like the rules”可知，这在一定程度上说明他们已经迷上了手机。由此可知，hooked 意为“入迷的”，和 crazy 意思相近。故选 D。
3. A 推理判断题。根据第四段最后两句“The 2019 law allowing school districts to restrict student's phone access makes exceptions for emergencies. The new law does not change that.”可知，新法规没有改变这一点，而是保留了关于例外情况的规定。故选 A。
4. C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“... teachers have noted that their students have been less distracted in class since the start of the ban.”可知，自禁令实施以来，学生们在课堂上分心的现象减少了，以及根据“The ban has totally changed the culture of the school. To have them put away, to have them power off ... it has been a great thing”可知手机禁令彻底改变了学校的文化环境，让学生把手机收起来、关闭手机电源是一件大好事。由此可知，新的手机禁令对学校产生了影响。故选 C。

2. 第2题（词义猜测题）：需结合画线词所在句的上下文（学生不喜欢规则，侧面体现对手机的依赖程度），推断词义并匹配选项；
3. 第3题（推理判断题）：定位2019年法律中关于紧急情况的例外条款，查看新法律是否改变该条款，据此判断；
4. 第4题（推理判断题）：分析最后一段的两个案例（学生分心减少、学校文化改变），总结新法规对学校的影响，对应选项。
