The researchers also found that loneliness spread more easily among women than men.

It also found that every additional friend can decrease loneliness by about five percent, or two and a half fewer lonely days. Loneliness has been linked to health problems like depression and sleeping difficulties. The researchers believe that knowing the causes of loneliness could help in reducing it.

Disturbed by the problems they create, many head teachers have ordered that pupils should keep their phones switched off at school. Others have told pupils to leave them at home． However, education researchers at The University of Nottingham believe it is time that phone bans(禁止 ) were reconsidered, because mobile phones can be a powerful learning aid, they say. Dr Elizabeth HartnellYoung and her colleagues have reached this conclusion after studying the consequences of allowing pupils in five secondary schools to use either their own mobile phones or the new generation of ‘ smartphones’ in lessons． During the ninemonth experiment, 14 to 16yearold pupils used the phones for a wide range of educational purposes, including creating short movies, setting homework reminders, recording a teacher reading a poem, and timing experiments with the phones’ stopwatches． The smartphones, which could be connected to the Inter, also allowed pupils to access revision websites, log into the school system, or transfer(轉存 )electronic files between school and home． The research involved 331 pupils in schools in Cambridgeshire, West Berkshire and Nottingham． “ At the start of the study, even pupils were often surprised at the thought that mobile phones could be used for learning,” Dr HartnellYoung said． “ After their handson experience, almost all pupils said they had enjoyed the project and felt more inspired.” Some teachers found that pupils who lacked confidence gained most from the project． However, they recognised that greater use of mobile phones in schools could cause problems． 32． We can infer from the first paragraph that ． A． teachers are strongly against students owning mobile phones B． mobile phones should be developed to meet students’ needs C． students are free to use their mobile phones at school D． mobile phones are usually forbidden to be used at school 33． When the students first used mobile phones for learning, they ． A． all enjoyed the project very much B． didn’ t know what they were used for C． didn’ t fully realize the learning functions of mobile phones D． were surprised that they were allowed to use mobile phones in schools 34． Who benefited most from the project?
