Questions 36~40 are based on the following reading. 

 American educators and lawmakers are increasingly advocating for the complete prohibition of smartphone use by students in schools, driven by concerns about the detrimental effects of smartphonerelated distractions on academic performance.    (1)     ■Despite existing regulations in many U.S. schools aimed at curbing phone use during instructional time, educators struggle with enforcement due to the pervasive nature of smartphone distractions. Students often engage in activities like messaging, gaming, social media browsing, and online shopping, which disrupt classroom dynamics and detract from learning.

    (2)     ■This sentiment is echoed by leaders and policymakers in several states, who advocate for either outright bans or the implementation of stricter measures to control smartphone use in educational settings. Some educators, like science teacher James Granger from Los Angeles, have proactively taken steps to address the issue by implementing policies requiring students to surrender their cellphones during class time.       (3)    ■

While momentum builds for the adoption of phone-free school environments, opposition emerges from various stakeholders, including students, parents, and some educators. Critics argue that such measures could impinge on students' autonomy and limit their ability to communicate during emergencies. Advocates for phone-free schools, such as Kim Whitman, emphasize the need for flexibility in policies to accommodate students with special educational and medical needs, highlighting the importance of a balanced approach to addressing smartphone usage in schools.     (4)    ■

插入後會變成:

  • 先說「有倡議要禁手機」

  • 然後補充「研究顯示手機使用普遍,專家因此認為需要全面禁令」
    ? 非常順暢,因為它提供了「為什麼會有人倡議禁手機」的背景依據。
