阅读理解 These days, if you still think the cell phone is just for talking, you will get laughed at.Yes, it's true, voice-only handsets have become out of date.Today's do-it-all mobiles have a lot in common with the computer.The only difference may be that they fit in your pocket and you pay by the minutes to use them.Some of the things a cell phone can do for you will be available this year: Surf at speed Cell pones that let you use the Web have been around for years.So, what's new? Well, faster third-generation(3G)net works let you surf at anywhere.This then allows a carrier to send video, music, and games to your phone.Possible choices are from LG Electronic VX 8000 and Motorola V 1150. Listen as you go The problem with most cell phone MP3 players is that they hold only a handful of songs.But, that's about to change.Sony Ericsson's new W800i can hold around 150 songs in its 500 MB memory.And Sumsung's SPH-V5400 even comes with a 1.5 GB hard drive.Mobile phones may eventually replace mini-MP3 players, especially for teens. Say cheese Camera cell phones are not new either.But, most of them have limitations:around 1-megapixel(百万像素).But new technology has made 2-megapixel units more common and 3-megapixel units are showing up soon.Some 2-megapixel models, like Sony Ericsson's K750i, offer limited zoom and focus controls.Others, like LG's recent MMA7110, can even capture 30 minutes of full- motion video. Portable TV You say you like “watching TV”? That's what Sumsung MM-A700 wants to give you.The new model lets users watch popular TV programs-for a fee.Other choices are Nokia's 6620, Sanyo's MM 7400 and NEC's N940.The NEC model lets you watch public TV-no fee. The above are just a handful of what you will see in the coming months.Further down the road, your mobile phone may play a host of other roles, such as mobile credit card, position locator… So what is there that a cell phone can't do? |
