Cell phones with cameras are really a popular way to capture a moment in time, but some “clever” students found another use—capturing tests as a way to cheat.
The Magnolia Independent School District in Montgomery County has added camera phones to a list of electronic devices students are banned from having at school.
School officials said the move was made as a preventative measure to stop potential test cheaters, since students could use the phones to snap pictures of test questions. Another concern was that students might take inappropriate pictures of classmates to later share or post on a Website. Cell phones without cameras are allowed on campus, but must be turned off. Camera cell phones will be confiscated if found on campus, and disciplinary action will be taken, officials said.
Some students were disheartened to hear about the ban. “I’d be lost without my phone,” said Kendall Paul, a Magnolia High School student. “All my numbers are in it. I’ve never used it to cheat and I don’t know anyone who has at our school, so I think it’s kind of stupid.” But other students said they saw it all the time at their school.
“You would take a picture of the test and then send it to the next person taking the test,” said Melissa Sparks, a student.
“They would send the question and the answer, or just the number of the question and the answer. It’s quicker that way,” another student said.
Parents often provide their children with cell phones for use in emergencies and to keep better track of them. “My Mon wants me to have my phone with me at all times for emergence purpose. So, it goes with me wherever I go,” Paul said.
According to this passage, which of the following statement is true?
A .Cell phone can’t be taken into the School District.
B. The students’ parents are in favor of the ban.
C. Students have different opinions about the ban.
D. Students can use cell phones without camera freely at school.
The writer would agree that____.
A. every coin has two sides
B. the School District’s ban is right
C. parents care about their children too much
D. schools should not invade students’ rights
The underlined word “it” in paragraph 4 refers to the fact that ____.
A. some students cheat in exams
B. the School District’s ban is stupid
C. some students get lost without their camera cell phones
D. some students cheat in exams with camera cell phones.

New York State has passed the USA’s first state law banning motorists talking on hand-held cell phones. The ban will begin November 1, although drivers caught using hand-held cell phones will be given only warnings during the first month.
First-time violators(違法者) will face a $100 fine. A second time call for a $200 fine and every violation after that will cost$500.

There are about 115 million cell phones in use in the United States and more than 6 million in New York State.
“To think that I’m not going to use cell phone when at the same time I can still use my laptop, I still can read a paper, I can still change my pants(褲子) while driving 65 mph. I think there’s just something wrong,” an official said.
Other critics noted that other things like eating, drinking coffee and applying make-up while driving posed(造成) at least as much of a concern. They suggested that the ban include a broader range of things.
