　　(2014·扬州第二学期期中考试)There is a famous story about British poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge. He was writing a poem when he was interrupted by a knock at the door.

　　This was an age before telephones. Someone was delivering a message. When Coleridge got back to his poem, he had lost his inspiration. His poetic mood had been broken by the knock on his door. His unfinished poem, which could otherwise have been a masterpiece, would now never be more than a fragment.

　　This story tells how unexpected communication can destroy an important thought, which brings us to the cellphone.

　　The most common complaint about cellphones is that people talk on them to the annoyance of people around them. But more damaging may be the cellphone's interruption of our thoughts.

　　We have already entered a golden age of little white lies about our cellphones, and this is by and large (大体上) a healthy, protective development. “I didn't hear it ring” or “I didn't realize my phone had shut off” is among the lies we tell to give ourselves space where we're beyond reach.
