If you hear the sound of running water the next time you call a co-worker on his or her mobile phone, don’t be surprised. Three-fourths of Americans with mobile phones say they use them in the bathroom, a new study shows.
Approximately(大约) the same number of men and women have used the phone in the bathroom, according to a survey of 1,000 Americans by 11 mark, an integrated marketing agency, although men seem more attached to IT in the toilet: 30 percent of men versus(VS) 20 percent of women agreed with the statement, I don't go to the bathroom without my mobile phone.
More than half the surveyed users (63 percent) said they have answered a phone call in the bathroom, and almost half (41 percent) reported initiating a phone call. That's not all, however. What goes on behind the walls of the stalls(小隔间) is anything a mobile phone is capable of. Sixty-seven percent said they have read a text, and 39 percent have surfed the Web. Men work more from the bathroom — 20 percent said they have participated in work-related calls, versus 13 percent of their female colleagues.
As expected, Gen Y(1981年后出生的一代) respondents(调查对象) are the pacesetters(先导者) in the mobile everywhere movement, with 91 percent using their phone in the bathroom. Still, older generations are not far behind. Eighty percent of Gen X(1961-1981) reported using the phone in the bathroom, as did 65 percent of Baby Boomers(1946-1965) and 47 percent of the Silent Generation(1925-1945).
While online, they are doing more than just surfing; 16 percent of Gen Y report they have made an online purchase while in the bathroom. Users of iPhones are particularly likely to browse and buy in the bathroom – 22 percent have made a purchase, versus 10 percent of Americans with mobile phones overall.
The writing is on the stall, said 11 mark principal Nicole Burdette. This study confirms what we all know: that the last private place is no longer private.
In the process, high-tech hygiene(卫生) is taking a hit, the survey found. While 92 percent of mobile phone users said they wash their hands after using the bathroom, only 14 percent said they wash their phones.

(答案→)D 解析：文章大意：本文是一篇调查报告。文章讲述了在卫生间使用手机情况的调查结果及表示出作者的不赞成的态度。【小题1】考查推测词义。根据文章的第三段可知More than half the surveyed users (63 percent) said they have answered a phone call in the bathroom, and almost half (41 percent) reported initiating a phone call. 可知，63%的人在卫生间接过手机电话，几乎41%的人开始在卫生间使用电话。故选D。【小题2】考查推理判断。根据文章倒数第二段中Nicole Burdette所说的This study confirms what we all know: that the last private place is no longer private.可知，最后的私密空间也不再私密了。可推知C正确。【小题3】考查推理判断。根据文章最后一段中的only 14 percent said they wash their phones.可知，不洗手机不卫生，洗了手机，手机可能会坏。所以作者认为：不应该在卫生间使用手机。故选B。【小题4】考查作者的写作态度。根据文章最后两段中的This study confirms what we all know: that the last private place is no longer private.和only 14 percent said they wash their phones.可知，作者不赞成在卫生间使用手机。故选B。
