What does Britain make you think of? Its royal (王室) family or fish and chips? In fact, Britain is 小題1:f      for forming queues as well. From the supermarket to the underground, queues are everywhere.

Cellphones help us easily find people anywhere at any time. However, using cellphones too often may cause cancer. (1) It’s reported that people who used a cellphone for 10 years or more were more likely to get brain cancer.
The suggestions below may help you reduce the risk(風險) of cancer:
◆When using your cellphone, try to keep it away from your body as much as possible. Don’t put it under your pillow(枕頭) or on a bedside table when you sleep.
◆When you’re on the cellphone, use the speaker. In this way, you have just 1/100th of the contact with radiation you have when you hold (2) it to your ear. An earphone is also a good idea.
◆Try to keep your conversations short. If you need to talk longer, use an ordinary phone instead.
◆Change ears when you’re using your cellphone. Before putting it to your ear, wait until the person you are calling picks up the phone.
◆Your phone gives out radiation when you talk or text, but not when you’re listening or getting messages. (4) 多聽和少說能降低癌癥風險。
◆Do not use your cellphone when the signal is weak or when moving at a high speed, for example in a car or train. At high speeds your phone is trying to pick up signals, and this increases the radiation it gives out.
閱讀短文,按要求完成下面的任務。
小題1:任務一 將(1)處畫線部分翻譯成中文。
小題2:任務二 (2) Where are you not supposed to put your cellphone when you sleep?
小題3:任務三 寫出(3)處“it”所指代的內容。
