Engage in - prep.参与，从事10. be compelled to - prep.不得不【试题解析】31题通过词性判断应该是名词，空格前面发的modern和后文的glancing at your watch得出选项G.equivalent, 本句意思是现代人看手机就像以前的人看手表一样，时不时地会去偷偷瞄两眼。32题判断为名词，通过前文描写人们会时不时地偷偷查看手机这一举动，本句的意思是为什么我们会有如此强烈的欲望去看手机，因此选C.urge.33题的线索在第二段开头，讲到如果别人看手机，我们就更有可

32、能掏出手机来，因此这一举动是具有“传染性的”，因此锁定K.infectious.34题考查短语integrate into - 成为一体，融入。本句讲的是女性比男性更长用手机，因为手机与女性的生活融为一体。35题前后衔接为were more likely,因此判断此处为副词，修饰more likely的程度副词只有habitually,因此答案选D.36题考查短语social interaction - 社交，此线索也在下文中出现。本句的意思是这些被调查的大学生如果在跟别人社交两天的间隙停留十秒看到别人看了手机，而没有跟自己有任何交流，那么自己极有可能也去看手机。37题判断词性为形容词，本句意
