背景介绍：
It seems that since the arrival of smart phone in 2007, we have seen the emergence of a new problem, and a uniquely 21-century problem. While our world is getting more connected, people become more disconnected, losing our conversation and real human interactions. Generally, many people are ignoring the person in front of him/her and being addicted to their smart phones. Lacking of a proper word to describe this phenomenon, however, hinders us from discussing it and solving it.

Now, the “word problem” no longer exists since a group of lexicologists who gathered at University Of Sydney, Australia, on 22nd May, 2012, has created a new word for it. Here it is – Phubbing. This word is a combination of Phone and Snub and it describes the act of snubbing someone in a social setting by looking at your cell phone instead of paying attention. Just on the second day after its invention, the word has gone viral in local social conversations. And then it soon championed worldwide with the help of new global movement – “Stop phubbing”. Within a year, over 180 countries were using it.

While numbers of people are questioning the improper social etiquette, phubbing, another tragedy happened at San Francisco last month. A college student was randomly killed by a shooter in a metro carriage. The shocking fact is the killer had taken out his pistol many times in front of people, aiming at those innocent passengers. But nobody actually had noticed that because all of them, obviously, were attracted by their tablets or smart phones. People were unaware of the upcoming danger, which led to the death of that college student. What an astonishing truth!

话题：
1. Are you a phubber? Are you a victim of phubbing? Tell us your stories.
2. Are you in favour of or against the global movement of “Stop phubbing”? And Why?

范例1：

Mobile devices such as smart phones have become so common nowadays that it seems everyone is using them all the time. The recent incident of a murder taking place on board a train with nobody realizing, not even the victim himself, since everybody was using their mobile devices further illustrates this dangerous trend. While on their mobile devices, some people cross the street without looking up, not paying attention to the traffic light nor approaching traffic. When these people are unaware of their surroundings, not only are they endangering themselves, they can also become a hazard to the people around them.
