What’s more, on some form al occasions the mobi1e phone rings continuous1y, and it interrupts people a round, as a consequence, people can’t concentrate on what they are doing because of the continuous ringing. And we often focus on our phoneswhile s omeone others are talking to us. It is impolite.
