A smart phone is a mobile phone built on a mobile operating system, with more advanced puting abilities than a mon phone. The first smart phones enabled the users to send and receive emails. Later models added the function of portable media players, pocket video cameras, and GPS navigation units to form one multi-use device. Many modem smart phones also include touchscreens and web browsers that display web pages.
A recent report says we spend an average of two hours and 40 minutes each day looking at a smart phone. That doesn’t mean making calls, but playing phone games and browsing the Web.
Nowadays we always find people checking emails in a restaurant, taking a picture of the food when it arrives, or checking a message during a conversation instead of traditional munication. It’s no secret that our lives are being affected by our smart phones obsession.
However, this phenomenon has never been presented so vividly as in the short YouTube film I Forgot My Phone. Despite only being online for a few days, it's already been viewed more than 10.5 million times. Whether it will be screened in the cinema remains to be seen.
Ironically, YouTube’s data show that the site gets a billion views per day from mobile devices, so a lot of those people watched it on their phones.
The short film, written by and starring actress Charlene Deguzman, shows groups of people in various social situations, the majority of whom are absorbed in their phones instead of the world around them. To a certain extent, we all do it.

解析：
试题分析: 智能手机的出现改变了人们的生活，通过智能手机人们可以收发电子邮件，可以听歌，看电影，可以上网浏览网页。智能手机有着如此多的功能以至于人们越来越多地对智能手机产生了依赖性，作者对这种现象非常担忧。
【小题1】A 细节理解题根据文章第一段The first smart phones enabled the users to send and receive emails.可知人们利用智能手机可以查邮件，答案选A。
【小题2】C词意猜测题。A奉献；B贡献；C上瘾；D感情。根据文章第二三段内容可知人们在生活中越来越依赖手机，对手机的痴迷越来越严重，由此判断该词obsession意思是“”痴迷，上瘾，选C。
【小题3】B细节理解题。根据文章倒数第三段Whether it will be screened in the cinema remains to be seen.可以判断此电影只是在优酷上播放过，还没有被搬上电影银幕，选B。
【小题4】B推理判断题。作者在文章中提出人们对手机的过度依赖这种现象，然后以优酷视频的点击率为例对此进行了更为有力的例证，再通过文中the majority of whom are absorbed in their phones instead of the world around them. Ironically,….，可以推断作者对这种现象是感到抑郁不安的，故答案选B。
