Part V. Read the passage and then choose the correct answer to each question. (1.0 point)
Cell phones are an integral part of our society and their main use is communication. They
keep students in touch with the rest of the world by giving them the power to interact with it.
In my day, if you forgot your lunch you were at the mercy of the office calling home for you.
Now, students have the ability to solve their own problems and handle certain emergencies on their own.
Cell phones also allow students to keep in touch with students at other schools or friends that
don't go to school. While not an educational benefit directly, better relationships can lead to
higher self-esteem and reduce isolation, which is good for everybody. In the same way,
camera phones allow students to capture the kinds of memories that help build a solid school
culture, and, in some cases, can act as documentation of misbehavior in the same way that
store cameras provide evidence and deter bad behavior.
Academically, the cell phone can act as to record video of a procedure of explanation that
may need to be reviewed later. It could be used to record audio of a lecture, as well, for later
review. And just imagine if classes could be easily taped for students who are absent? What
if they could even be streamed and seen from home instantly?
