It’s Friday evening. My daughters, 3 and 9, sigh(叹息) when I ge Most people in our lives know they will not be able to contact us by using computer or moblie phones for 24 hours. And so it has gone, every week for three years. We call it our “Technology Shabbat(科技安息日)" which lasts from sunset on Friday to sunset on Saturday. I first understood the importance of disconnecting in 2008, when my father was told that he had got brain cancer. Some days he would have ony one good hour, and I wasn’t willing to be disturbed when I was with him, so I’d turn off my mobile phone. Soon after, encouraged by National Day of Unplugging(全国断网断电日) on March 1st, my husband and I decided to unplug for one full day every week. During our “Technology Shabbats”, time slows. Our Saturdays now feel like mini-vacations. We drive our car or ride our bike. We, with our kids, work in the garden, play board games and cook meals. I feel more balanced. I feel like a better mother, wife and person. Keeping a balance between the good and the bad of technology is my lasting state. The technology we’ve created makes it possible for us to share knowledge and take in carious ideas all over the world. But the technology also take something away from us. When we stay up late at night linking(连接) from website to website or sending messages or e-mailing, we click again, and again, and again until we’ve overloaded(超负荷的). When we rush into the time full of high technology, it's necessary for us to pay attention to what we are doing online and when we should go off. I will always remember the most important thing in my family: “Technology Shabbat". 1. When is “Techtwhgy Shabbat' in the writer's family? A. Only on Sunday. B. From sunset on Friday to sunset on Saturday. C. Only on Friday. D. From sunset on Saturday to sunset on Sunday. 2. The writer's family have “Technology Shabbat" every week mainly becausc they hope to ______. A. save energy B. enjoy life together C. stay away from others D. follow National Day of Unplugging 3. What do the writers family NOT do during their “Technology Shubbats”? A. They drive their car or r B. They light the candles and sit down to have a big meal. C. They work in the garden, play board games and coo D. They stay up late at night linking from website to website.

Try reading the following sentences as fast as you can. “She sells seashells by the seashore. The shells she sells are surely seashells. So if she sells shells on the seashore, I’m sure she sells seashore shells.” Not very easy, was it? What you’ve just read is called
a tongue twister (绕口令). It is an exercise made up of sou “Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled pepper. Did Peter Piper pick a peck of pickled peppers? If Pete Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, where’s the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?” Tongue twisters usually do not have much meaning. They are just designed to improve people’s ability to pronounce words. Although they may be very difficult, these exercises are very important to people who are trying to speak English correctly. This is because tongue twisters help people to tell the differences between similar sounds. So if you wish to pronounce words more smoothly, you’d better try picking out some tongue twisters and practicing them. 1.Tongue twisters are helpful in improving ___________ skills.

Courage may make you confident of your success. If you have courage, you will not show fear in face of anything difficult or dangerous. With courage, you mak look someone in the eye who you have wronged and say “I am sorry”: you may still smile even if you are seriously ill and know you are at the end of your life. How can we build up our courage? Believe you will be successful. Take chances and know that you have your own talents. Besides, your family and friends are always there for you. Exercise your courage. It can be compared to a muscle(肌肉). The more we use it, the stronger courage gets. Know that giving up is not a choice. It’s much easier to give up, and it takes courage to say or do what you think is right, even when other people think you are wrong. Fight to control your fear. Courageous people may
still be afraid, but the differnce is tha They don’t let it hold them back but use it as a reminder of what they can lose if they don’t go on. Get courage by reading inspiring stories of brave
