In May 2012, Australia’s Macquarie Dictinary and the McCann Advertising Agency gathered a grup f language experts t name a phenmenn cmmn in the age f the smartphne. They called the phenmenn “phubbing”, and defined(定义)it as “the act f snubbing(无视)smene in a scial setting by lking at yur phne instead f paying attentin.” It’s nt the usual way wrds begin t exist.
A mnth later, the first example f phubbing in a majr newspaper appeared in a letter t the editr f The Age, published in Melburne. Since then, the wrd has appeared in varius media the wrld ver. Phubbing has yet t be fully adpted in the U. S. , but we have cllected sme evidence f it in use.
On 29 September 2015, James A. Rberts wrte in the Huffiningtn Pst, “In the present case, phubbing is a cmbinatin f the wrds phne and snubbing. T be phubbed is t be snubbed by smene using their cell phne while in yur cmpany. The “phubb” culd be an interruptin f yur cnversatin with smene when he r she uses their cell phne r is distracted by it (steal glances when they think yu’re nt lking) instead f paying attentin t yu. Maybe wrse, yu’ve been phubbed if smene used their cell phne instead f cmmunicating with yu while staying clse t yu. Oh, the shame. ”
The meaning and varius frms f the wrd have yet t settle ut. Is it phubbing if yu’re staring at yur tablet instead f yur phne? Is the singular nun (and the base frm f the verb) spelled phubb, as in the example abve, r phub, as in sme ther surces? These are the srts f questins we’ll need answers t befre we’re ready t cnsider phubbing and its relatins fr entry. In the meanwhile, yu can f curse use phubbing if yu feel the need. It seems we all d these days.
8. What des Paragraph 1 mainly talk abut phubbing?

A. Obvius embarrassment in life.
B. Heavy reliance n cellphnes.
C. Cmplete ignrance by yur friends.
D. Permanent breakup f retalinship.
10. What can we learn frm the last paragraph abut the wrd phubb?
A. It aruses heated arguments.B. It prves t be settled.
C. It’s nt included in a dictinary.D. It’s nt difficult t understand.
11. Which f the fllwing is a suitable title fr the text?
A. Where Phubbing Leads Us?B. Why Phubbing Ruins Our Life?
C. What Makes Phubbing Cmmnly Seen?D. Hw Phne Snubbing Becmes Phubbing?

What makes peple s special? Tl use, self-cnsciusness, language, and culture are high n the list, but in fact all f these characteristics can be fund elsewhere in the animal kingdm. Humans and apes are clse relatives, s it is perhaps nt surprising that chimpanzees use tls r that grillas (大猩猩) have a sense f fair play, even rejecting carrts (which they nrmally accept) when they see their neighbrs getting grapes. But the qualities that we ften think f as uniquely human exist nt just n land, but in the cean as well.
Amng the invertebrates, ctpuses (八爪鱼) are knwn fr their intelligence, even exhibiting evidence f playfulness, tl use, and persnality. But these skilled predatrs live alne and cnsequently lack culture. Dlphins, n the ther hand, are large-brained, lng-living, scial- grup-based predatrs, and it is here that we find the greatest similarity t human-like culture and awareness.
Culture depends n the ability f animals t pass n things they have learned t thers. Many animals have culture in this sense, but what sets dlphins apart is what they pass n. Sme bttlense dlphins hld spnges in their muths that they use as tls t sweep fr fish hiding n the cean flr. This ability is handed dwn thrugh generatins (especially in females), with sme families- grandmther, mther, and daughter - all feeding in this highly specialized way.
Anther characteristic that dlphins share with humans is their ability t recgnize themselves in a mirrr. When facing a mirrr, mst animals behave as thugh they are interacting with anther individual. Even in humans, the ability t recgnize that the image in a mirrr is neself des nt ccur befre the age f 18 mnths. Dlphins nt nly recgnize themselves, but if a black mark is put n the bdy f a dlphin, it will spend extra time at the mirrr t lk at the mark.
12. The example f grillas rejecting carrts shws they ________.
A. are nt easy t fl
B. prefer fruit t vegetables
C. have a special taste fr fd
D. have an awareness f equality
13 What d ctpuses lack cmpared with dlphins?
A. Scial interactin.B. Intelligence.
C. Tl using ability.D. Fun-lving spirits.
14. What makes dlphin culture special?
A They tend t hunt in grups.
B. Their hunting skills are passed dwn.
C. Their learning envirnment is favurable.
D. Their families are typically female-cntrlled.
15. What can be inferred frm the last paragraph?
A. Dlphins enjy lking at their wn reflectin in the mirrr.
B. Dlphins are as intelligent as a typical 18-mnth-ld human baby.
C. Dlphins are generally regarded as the mst advanced nn-human species.
D. Dlphins’ ability t recgnize their wn reflectin is a higher-rder mental skill.
