题目

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 We are often so attracted by the promises of modem digital life that we fail to notice its danger. It's that feeling of losing control that we get many times a day, from when we get distracted （分心）with our phones in a discussion to when we can't appreciate a private moment without sharing it with virtual （虚拟的）audience. In my first attempt to get control over my technology use, I set my phone to vibrate rather than ring. Soon after, another problem appeared. The act of continually checking the phone became a habit. I knew then that using only tips to permanently（永久地）change digital life is difficult. We should go past the notification settings （通知模式）on our devices or apps and consider the more important topic of why we use so many apps in the first place. What all of us need is a technology usage philosophy（使用哲理）, something that explains which digital tools we should allow into our lives, why, and under what conditions. Cal Newport, a professor of computer science, explains Digital Minimalism （极简主义）as a "philosophy of technology use in which you focus your online time on a small number of carefully selected activities that strongly support the things you value, and then happily miss out on everything else." To do so, however, we cannot passively allow the tools and apps provided by the interne age to control how we spend our time or how we feel. Instead, we must take steps to draw the positive aspects of these technologies while sidestepping（回避）the negative aspects. （1） What does "its danger" in the first paragraph refer to? A .
