This paraphrases a warning that cell phone manufacturers include in the small print that is often【C1】______ when a new phone is purchased. Apple, 【C2】______, doesn’t want iPhones to come closer to you than 1.5 centimeters; Research In Motion, BlackBerry’s manufacturer,【C3】______2.5 centimeters.
If health issues【C4】______cell phone use, the implications are huge. According to a recent survey,Americans chat【C5】______cell phones 2.26 trillion minutes annually, which【C6】______ $100 billion for the wireless carriers. Epidemiologists(流行病学家)pointed out that brain cancer is a( n) 【C7】______. Overall, there has not been a(n) 【C8】______ in its incidence since cell phones arrived. But the average【C9】______an increase in brain cancer in the 20-to-29 age group【C10】______a drop for the older population.
"Most cancers have【C11】______causes," an expert says,【C12】______she points to laboratory research that suggests low-energy radiation could damage cells that could possibly lead to cancer.
Besides, children are more【C13】______ to radiation than adults, other scientists point out. Radiation that【C14】______only five centimeters into the brain of an adult will reach much deeper into the brains of children because their skulls are thinner and their brains【C15】______ more absorptive fluid.

选项
A、as well as
B、in contrast to
C、instead of
D、rather than
答案
D
解析
连词辨析题。因为整篇文章都在讲述使用手机对于人们,尤其是青少年产生的负面影响,因此,作者对于“打电话”(call)的态度应该是否定的。选项中表示否定的只有[C]instead of和[D]rather than。instead of的用法是instead of sth.或instead of doing sth.,因此不能用在动词call的前面,而rather than后可直接加动词原形,故[D]为正确答案。[A]as well as意为“和;除……之外”;[B]in contrast to意为“和……形成对比”,均可排除。
