People who have the habit of texting (发短信) while walking tend to develop a robot-like posture, lose their balance, and involve themselves in traffic accidents, according to a research from the University of Queensland. Researchers said that text-walkers are in danger of walking into traffic and train tracks among others. They suggest pedestrians（行人）stop aside, type a text and then continue walking.
For the study, the researchers tracked body movements of 26 young men and women while walking in a straight line over a distance of about 8.5 m ---once without a mobile phone, once while reading a text message and once while typing a message.
They found that participants’ body movements were greatly changed when they used their phone. The difference in their posture was more prominent while sending a text than while reading a message. They further said that when those people began texting while walking, they slowed down their pace, went off course and moved their necks less than when reading a message.
“We found that they ‘locking’ their arms, trunk and head together walked with a posture that was robot-like, all in aid of keeping their phone in their field of vision. So there is less movement between each of their body parts.” Researcher Siobhan Schabrun said, Daily Mail UK reports.
“In recent years, there have been many reports of people involved in traffic accidents because they were texting while walking. The number of pedestrian accidents is rising and texting has been blamed,” Schabrun said.
Despite such repeated accidents, only few studies have analyzed the impact of texting on body language. If more studies concentrate on walking styles adopted while texting, their findings can be used to lower whole accidents.
While a few U.S. states have introduced laws on texting while driving, Fort Lee, a New Jersey town, went further ahead and recently fined some walkers an $85 for catching them texting. It is hoped that other American states and countries will follow.
1.How did the researchers carry out their research?
A. They called on most pedestrians.
B. They tried texting while they were walking.
C. They followed some pedestrians in the street.
D. They showed pedestrians the danger of texting.
2. The underlined word “prominent” in Paragraph 3 probably means _____.
A. obvious B. important C. uncertain D. puzzling
3. When texting, the pedestrians walk in a different way to _____.
A. avoid losing their balance
B. attract other people’s attention
C. keep their eyes steady on the phone
D. take part in the study with the researchers
4. From the last paragraph, we can infer that texting while walking ______.
A. is not popular with many people
B. will make each American fined $85
C. will be punished in some states of America
D. has been forbidden in most American states
5.What is the best title of the passage?
A. Negative effects of texting.
B. Texting and traffic accidents.
C. Texting and people’s health.
D. Ways to avoid traffic accidents.

Few people doubt the value of developing students' thinking skills. A focus on critical thinking is common in education. In the Australian Curriculum, critical thinking and creative thinking are known as “general capabilities”. The US has a similar focus through their “common core".
Many approaches to developing critical thinking are based on Philosophy for Children. One strategy that has a large impact on students' ability to analyse and evaluate arguments is argument mapping, in which a student's reasoning can be visually displayed by capturing the inferential pathway from assumption to conclusion. This type of argument-based intellectual engagement can show high outcomes in terms of the quality of thinking in any classroom. Research also shows deliberate attention to the practice of reasoning in the context of our everyday lives can be significantly improved through targeted teaching.
Teachers at one high school in Australia, who have much training in critical thinking teaching methods, developed a task that asked students to determine Australia's greatest sports person. Students needed to construct their own criteria for greatness. To do so, they had to analyze the Australian sporting context, create possible evaluative standards, explain and justify why some standards would be more acceptable than others and apply these to their candidates. They then needed to argue their case with their classmates to develop criteria that were solid, defensible, widely applicable and produced a choice that seized significant and relevant aspects of Australian sport.
Researchers looking at the gains made in a single term of teaching critical thinking with argument mapping said the critical thinking gains measured are close to those that could be expected to result from three years of undergraduate education. Students who are taught to think well also do better on subject-based exams and standardized tests than those who do not.
In terms of developing 21st century skills, which includes setting up students for lifelong learning, teaching critical thinking should be core business.
1.Which of the following can explain the underlined word “capturing" in Paragraph 2?
A.Describing. B.Attracting. C.Designing. D.Blocking.
2.What’s the purpose of Paragraph 3?
A.To construct the criteria for being great.
B.To acknowledge the teachers' outcomes.
C.To present how to teach critical thinking.
D.To emphasize the importance of reasoning.
3.What is the author's attitude toward teaching critical thinking?
A.Objective. B.Supportive. C.Doubtful. D.Cautious.
4.What does this text imply?
A.Teaching methods should vary among schools.
B.Research on education deserves more attention.
C.Critical thinking should be valued in education.
D.Concepts of critical thinking aren't well received.
