阅读下面的短文，从A、B、C和D选项中选出一个最佳*

It was a beautiful day at the beach—blue sky , gentle breeze , calm sea . I knew these things because a man sitting five feet from me was shouting them into his cellular telephone , like a play-by-play announcer .

“ IT’S A BEAUTIFUL BAY , ” He shouted . “ The SKY IS BLUE , AND THERE’S A BREEZE , AND THE WATER IS CALM , AND … ”

Behind me , a woman , holding a cellular phone , was pacing back and forth . “ She DIDN ’ T , ” she was saying . “ No , she DIDN ’ T . She DID ? Really ? Are you SERIOUS ? She did NOT . She DID ? No , she DIDN’T . She DID ? No , she … ”

And so on . This woman had two children , who were playing in the surf . I found myself watching them , because the woman surely was not . I think if a huge squid surfaced and grabbed the children , this woman would not notice . Or if she noticed , she would said , “ Listen , I have to go , because a huge squid just … No ! She DID ? No ! She … ”

These endless calls caused seagulls to explode and my good mood to melt into thin air . Why must they have their cellular phones working at all times , everywhere ? But also I find these loud cell-phoners never seem to get important calls . If you’re one of these people , please believe me when I say this: I can’t hear you .
