When I was a boy we had a small 13 inch color television set in our living room. It had a button to 1the channels on it. However,we 2 changed channels. We lived in the country and our antenna (天線) could only 3 one channel clearly. When I went to school my friend who lived in town would 4 all of the shows he watched on the channels I couldn’ t get and I would share the shows he didn’ t see. It was a 5 way to pass an afternoon and I always looked forward to it.

   These days I have access to over one hundred 6 . However,I often find myself 7 some rerun from my childhood on an old station. On my 8 there are shows,videos,and stories from all over the world. 9 , time and time again I find myself getting 10 . Then I will turn my computer 11 and pick up an old book to read 12 . My daughter has a smartphone that she can use with a skill that makes my head spin(眩暈) . 13 can get any information from the Internet in mere 14 . Still,it seems a bit too fast for me at times. I don't 15 slowly consulting the dictionary or an encyclopedia(百科全書) instead.

   Sometimes I think I was bom a little too early for this world,16 one thing that I do 17 is that in this crazy,mixed-up,super-information society you still need to find the 18 direction. You still need to turn your antenna to love. You still need to 19 daily life with kindness. Without these things life has no 20 ; you gain no wisdom and have no joy.

   Snow White. Paper. Freak(怪人) . These are some of the not-so-nice names that I was called in sixth and seventh grade. That's because I was bom with a medical condition called albinism(白化病) ， which I'11 have for the rest of my life.

   It's not just school that can be difficult,though. When I'm walking down the street,strangers stare. People come up and pet my hair,like I'm a little dog. Other times they talk to me like I'm 5 years old. My brain works just fine. Thank you very much!

   Living with the condition has its challenges. My skin bums really easily,so I have to wear sunscreen every day. I have trouble seeing super-small things and super-faraway things.

I use a cane(手杖) whenever I'm walking in an unfamiliar area to detect any obstacles(障礙物) .

   There are actually benefits to my condition. For one,I might qualify for a scholarship. And I got a free iPad,because it helps enlarge some of the text I need to read at sphool. And check out my eyes!I have a special eye color. I iove looking unique.

                                  Is conversation a lost art?

   The next time you eat at a restaurant,take some time to look around you. What do you notice? 1 How many of them are engaged(忙于） in face-to-face conversations? On the other hand,how many of them have their heads down using a smartphone?

   Thanks to smartphones and the Internet,we’ re able to text,email,or make phone calls all day long.2 Experts argue,however,that the types of communication made possible by modem technology have come at the expense of real,face-to-face conversations. Even though we re connecting more than ever,the exchanges aren't as deep as in-person conversations.

   Do we really spend that much time on electronic devices（設(shè)備）， though? 3 According to a recent study,today's young Americans (ages 8-18) spend more than seven-and-a-half hours every day on electronic devices,such as smartphones,televisions,computers,and video games.

   So what's the big deal? Many experts have noted that a reliance（依賴） upon electronic communica- tions can have a negative effect on social skills and writing skills. 4 While digital communications teach certain skills and habits,face-to-face conversations teach other skills that are important for our overall well-being.

   5 Experts urge people to unplug more often. Set aside time without electronics to share face-to-face conversations with friends and family. Keeping a healthy balance between on-screen and off-screen discussions will make you a better communicator in all areas of your life.

   A. Researchers have found the answer is yes.

   B. Pay particular attention to the other people around you.

   C. How can we be sure we don't lose the art of conversation?

   D. When you're sad or lonely,a smile may make a huge difference.

   E. This can make it harder to keep healthy relationships as an adult.

   When I first met Bud,I knew we were going to be friends,even though he was white and I was black. We first met at the All-City Chorus. 1 We stood side by side in the chorus,and he always made me look good,even if I missed a note.

   Bud went to an all-white high school in a beautiful,all-white neighborhood. There were very few big buildings in his coiiimunity. As a matter of fact,you would have to walk four or five blocks to get to the nearest shopping center. 2 In his basement,he had a complete mini-gym. In his bedroom,he had a nice desk,complete with reference books and his own little TV on which he could play his video games.

   3 My family lived in a nice apartment in an all-black housing project. Our project housed many families,so we were used to living in small crowded houses. 4 There were all kinds of stores nearby. For beauty,we had basketball courts and the rose garden in front of the project building.

   We were never jealous or looked down on one another,either. We both felt we had lost something because we lived in worlds set apart from others. Bud's only contact(接觸) with blacks of his age was in the All-City Chorus. 5 And it was not as interesting as it would have been if he had grown up with people of different groups and races living together. I felt the same way. Both races could learn a great deal from one another,and I knew this because Bud and I surely did learn from each other.

   A. Bud's house was another point of interest.

   B. Because of this,he felt his life was sheltered.

   C. We never had to walk far to the nearest store.

   D. My home and neighborhood were totally different.

   E. People said we both had the same kind of personality.

   F. I could sing a little,but Bud really had a very good voice.
