【文章大意】本文主要講述的是湘潭的青少年譚偉一個月短信費用350元，他發(fā)了3500條短信。由于在學(xué)校表現(xiàn)出色，父親給譚偉買了一部手機，但為了償還短信費的債務(wù)，他到鞋店去做兼職，大概半年才能還清債務(wù)。
1. 從文中第三段“I finally bought one for his birthday because he，s been doing so well at school”可知譚偉得到手機因為他在學(xué)校表現(xiàn)很好，故本題選C。
2.聯(lián)系全文可知，texting是發(fā)短信的意思，故本題選B。
3.文章第四段“but I was having such good fun that I couldn’t stop！”可見當(dāng)譚偉發(fā)短信時，他感覺很快樂。故本題選C。
4.文章開頭說譚偉一個月用了350元的話費，后面又說要做半年兼職才能還清債務(wù)，可見一個月掙大約60元。故本題選B。
