問題詳情

請依下文回答第 11 題至第 15 題        One of the ironies of modern life is that everyone is glued to their phones, but nobody uses them asphones anymore. Phone calls are becoming relics of a bygone era, the “phone” part of a smartphoneturning vestigial as communication    11       , willingly or not, into data-oriented formats like textmessaging and chat apps.        The distaste for telephony is especially acute among Millennials,    12    have come of age in aworld of AIM and texting, then gchat and iMessage, but it’s hardly limited to young people. When asked,people with a distaste for phone calls argue that they are    13      , especially given alternative methods ofcontact that don’t make unbidden demands for someone’s undivided attention. In response, some havebeen diagnosed with a kind of telephoniphobia among this set. When even initiating phone calls is aproblem—and even    14    ones, like phoning the local Thai place to order takeout—then anxiety ratherthan habit may be to blame.        But when it    15    taking phone calls, nobody seems to have admitted that using the telephonetoday is a different material experience than it was 20 or 30 years ago. The telephone used to be trulygreat, partly because of the situation of its use, and partly because of the nature of the apparatus we usedto refer to as the “telephone”—especially the handset.
