I am not against modern technology.I own a cell phone, an ATM card, a voice­mail system, and an e­mail account.Giving them up isn't wise, they're a great help to us.It's some of their possible consequences that make me feel uneasy.

　　More and more, I find myself hiding behind e­mail to do a job meant for conversation, or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didn' t really have time to talk.The industry devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier, or at least facilitating my antisocial instincts.

　　So I've put myself on technology restriction: no instant messaging with people who live near me, no cell­phoning in the presence of friends, no letting the voice mail pick up when I'm at home.

　　1．Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?

　　A.The Advance of Communications Technology

　　B.The Consequences of Modern Technology

　　C.The Story of the Communications Revolution

　　D.The Automation of Modern Communications

　　2．The sentence “Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent” means that _________.

　　A．the people sitting beside you have to go away to receive phone call

　　B．you can hardly get in touch with the people sitting beside you

　　C．modern technology makes it hard for people to have a face­to­face talk
