The round-the-clock availability that cell phones and pagers have (47) to people’s lives may betaking a toll on family life, a new study suggests. The study, which (48) more than 1,300 adults over 2 years, found that those who consistently used a mobile phone or pager throughout the study period were more likely to report negative "spillover" between work and home life — and, in (49) , less satisfaction with their family life. Spillover essentially means that the line between work and home begins to blur. Work life may (50) home life -- when a parent is taking job-related calls at home, for instance -- or household issues may start to take up (51) time. The problem with cell phones and pagers seems to be that they are allowing for ever more spillover between work and home, according to Chesley’s findings. This may be (52) true for working women, the study found. Among men, consistent use of mobile phones and pagers seemed to allow more work issues to creep into family time. But for women, the spillover tended to go in both (53) -- being "connected" meant that work cut into home time, and family issues seeped into work life. The point, Chesley said, is that cell phones and pagers seem to be opening more lines for (54) exchanges among family members, rather than positive ones. But there may be ways to stem the spillover, according to Chesley. Employers, she said, could look at their policies on contacting employees after-hours to make (55) their expectations are "reasonable". For their part, employees could decide that cell phones and pagers go off during 56 family time, Chesley said.[A] work[F] specially [K] real[B] stressful[G] sure [L] designated[C] partly[H] turn [M] leisure[D] followed[I] directories [N] invade[E] return[J] brought [O] directions

Comparisons were drawn between the development of television in the 20th century and the diffusion of printing in the 15th and 16th centuries. Yet much had happened (67) . As was discussed before, it was not (68) the 19th century that the newspaper became the dominant pre-electronic (69) , following in the wake of the pamphlet and the book and in the (70) of the periodical. It was during the same time that the communications revolution (71) up, beginning with transport, the railway, and leading (72) through the telegraph, the telephone, radio, and motion pictures (73) the 20th-century world of the motor car and the airplane. Not everyone sees that process in (74) . It is important to do so. It is generally recognized, (75) , that the introduction of the computer in the early 20th century, (76) by the invention of the integrated circuit during the 1960s, radically changed the process, (77) its impact on the media was not immediately (78) . As time went by, computers became smaller and more powerful, and they became "personal" too, as well as (79) , with display becoming sharper and storage (80) increasing. They were thought of, like people, in (81) of generations, with the distance between generations much (82) . It was within the computer age that the term "information society" began to be widely used to describe the (83) within which we now live. The communications revolution has (84) both work and leisure and how we think and feel both about place and time, but there have been (85) views about its economic, political, social and cultural implications. "Benefits" have been weighed (86) "harmful" outcomes. And generalizations have proved difficult.
