The researcher says that hearing only one person in a conversation makes listeners constantly try to guess what the unheard person is saying. This makes it distracting to overhear one side of a cell-phone conversation. Cell-phone conversations are also distracting because people talking on a cell-phone are abnormally loud.

This answer is unsupported. We don’t know whether actually having a cell-phone conversation is distracting. The researcher only discusses the effects of overhearing someone else's conversation.

This answer is strongly supported. Hearing only one side of a conversation distracts a person from whatever they’re doing, as does the abnormally loud speech of someone talking on a cell-phone. Being distracted reasonably detracts from someone's driving.

This answer is anti-supported. The researcher says that overhearing just one side of a conversation is distracting. This is presumably true of traditional phones as well as cell-phones.

This answer is unsupported. We don’t know if these people always lose track of their own thoughts, we just know that they become distracted.

This answer is unsupported. We don’t know what the effects are of actually talking on a cell-phone, the researcher only discusses overhearing a cell-phone conversation.
