单选题 The French government is to ban students from using mobile phones in the country's primary，junior and middle schools.Children will be allowed to bring their phones to school，but not allowed to get them out at any time until they leave，even during breaks.  Jean-Michel Blanquer，the French education minister，said the measure would come into effect from the start of the next school year in September 2018.

It will apply to all pupils from the time they start school at the age of six-up to about 15 when they start secondary school. Blanquer said some education establishments already prohibited pupils from using their mobiles. "Sometimes you need a mobile for teaching reasons...for urgent situations，but their use has to be somehow controlled," he told RTL radio. 

 The French headteachers' union was skeptical that the ban could be enforced."This new announcement from the education ministry leaves us dubious because we're having trouble understanding what the real issue here is.In general，we're used to them being logical and pragmatic about things，and here，we can't find the logic or the pragmatism in the announcements," said Philippe Vincent，the union's deputy general secretary. Outside one middle schoolin the centre of Paris，pupils asked about the measure seemed unimpressed."I don't understand how it will work.

Who will take the phones，where will they put them...how will we get them back?" said one 13-year-old boy. Parents seemed uncertain too."It's probably a good idea when the kids are in school，but they can't ban them bringing them to school," said Sabine." My daughter goes to school and comes home on her own，and at this time of year it's dark so early，so I want her to have a phone with her.It's reassuring."She added："But rather than a ban，wouldn't it be better to install a signal blocker in schools?" Blanquer has already suggested schools could install lockers for phones，though many city centre schools have little room for them.

全文翻译

法国政府将禁止国内的小学生和主学生在学校使用手机。学生们可以把手机带到学校，但在离开学前的任何时间都不允许使用手机，即使在课间休息时也不可以。

法国教育部部长让-米歇尔·布朗凯说，这项措施将从2018年9月新学年开始时生效。这一规定适用于所有中小学生，从刚入学的6岁小学生到大约15岁的中学生。 

布朗凯说，一些教育机构已经禁止学生使用手机。他告诉RTL电台：“有时候，出于教学目的或者在紧急情况下需要用到手机，但是手机的使用必须得到控制。”

法国校长联盟对这项禁令能否得到实施持怀疑态度。该联盟的副秘书长菲利普·文森特说：“教育部的这一新通知让我们感到疑惑，因为我们难以理解真正的问题是什么。一般来说，我们习惯于有逻辑性和实用性的文件：而在这则通知中我们找不到任何逻辑或实用性。”

在巴黎市主心的一所中学外，学生们在被问及这项措施时似乎表现得无动于衷。一个13岁的男孩说：“我不明白它要如何实行。谁来收手机，他们要把手机放在哪儿……我们如何把手机拿回来？

家长们似乎也不确定这项措施是好是坏。“孩子们在校期间禁止使用手机也许是个好主意，但他们不能禁止孩子们把手机带到学校，”萨宾说。“我女儿独自上学和回家，每年这个时候天黑得很早，所以我希望她随身携带手机。这样才让人放心。”她补充说：“但是，与其发布这种禁令，在学校装个信号屏蔽器会不会更好？” 

布朗凯已经建议学校安装手机寄存柜，不过市中心的许多学校几乎没有空间安装。
