Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on the answer sheet to indicate the<br />
correct answer to each of the questions from 19 to 28.<br />
Millions of people are using cellphones today. In many places, it is actually considered<br />
unusual not to use one. In many countries, cellphones are very popular with young people. They<br />
find that the phones are more than a means of communication - having a mobile phone shows<br />
that they are cool and connected.<br />
The explosion in mobile phone use around the world has made some health professionals<br />
worried. Some doctors are concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems<br />
from the use of mobile phones. In England, there has been a serious debate about this issue.<br />
Mobile phone companies are worried about the negative publicity of such ideas. They say that<br />
there is no proof that mobile phones are bad for your health.<br />
On the other hand, medical studies have shown changes in the brain cells of some people<br />
who use mobile phones. Signs of change in the tissues of the brain and head can be detected with<br />
modern scanning equipment. In one case, a travelling salesman had to retire at young age because<br />
of serious memory loss. He couldn't remember even simple tasks.<br />
He would often forget the name of his own son. This man used to talk on his mobile phone<br />
for about six hours a day, every day of his working week, for a couple of years. His family doctor<br />
blamed his mobile phone use, but his employer's doctor didn't agree.<br />
What is it that makes mobile phones potentially harmful? The answer is radiation. Hightech machines can detect very small amounts of radiation from mobile phones. Mobile phone<br />
companies agree that there is some radiation, but they say the amount is too small to worry<br />
about.<br />
As the discussion about their safety continues, it appears that it's best to use mobile phones<br />
less often. Use your regular phone if you want to talk for a long time. Use your mobile phone<br />
only when you really need it. Mobile phones can be very useful and convenient, especially in<br />
emergencies. In the future, mobile phones may have a warning label that says they are bad for<br />
your health. So for now, it's wise not to use your mobile phone too often.<br />
