It’s Friday evening. My daughters, 3 and 9, sigh (嘆息) when I gently take the iPads away from their laps. 1 We light the candles and sit down to have a big meal.

Most people in our lives know they will not be able to connect with my family by using computer or mobile phones for 24 hours. 2 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 only 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 (全國(guó)斷網(wǎng)斷電日) on March 1st, my husband and I decided to unplug for one full day every week.

3 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.4 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 (連接) from website to website or sending messages or 3-mailing, we click again, and again, and again until we’ve overloaded (超負(fù)荷的).

5 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”.

A.One by one, our screens are tuned off.

B.During our “Technology Shabbats”, time slows.

C.And so it has gone, every week for three years.

D.When we rush into the time full of high technology.

E.The technology we’ve created makes it possible for us to share knowledge.

F.Some days we will spend only one good hour communicating heart to heart.

You can study the English language for years but still not understand a native speaker of English when you meet one. Native speakers say a lot of things, but you can’t find them in any dictionary. Well, don’t worry. Here’s a secret for you: a lot of British people can’t understand each other either!

There are different local accents (口音) across the UK, and a number of areas have several different accents, that is, they have their own vocabulary and phrases. There were at least six different accents born to London the last time I counted.

Worse than that, it is not just where a person is born in the UK that decides their accent. For example, a language and its accents often change across class or level of education. Another example is how language can differ among age groups in the UK. The words and pronunciation used by young people in the UK can be completely different compared with those used by adults. They are creating a “yoof culture”.

The word “yoof” is a slang (俚語(yǔ)) spelling of “youth”. Some people don’t consider “yoof” to be a positive term since its pronunciation is easier and lazier than “youth”. Other people see the term as positive, because it describes how young people are creating their own language, concept and identity.

When parents find it difficult to understand their children, the children can say more things without the examining of their parents. In this way, young people are starting to find freedom, independence and self-expression. Even though certain groups of society feel threatened (威脅) by “yoof culture”, new words come and go like fashions.

So learners should have no fear about communicating with native speakers. Even British people don’t speak English properly! The UK no longer owns the English language.

Learner’s worries

They study the language for years and still can’t understand a native

speaker.

Native speakers say lots of things that don’t 1 in any dictionary.

2 of different accents

People from different areas have their own vocabulary and phrases.

A person’s accent depends on the birthplace.

How much education people receive also decides on their accents.

People from different age groups speak 3

Attitudes towards “yoof culture”

4

It’s easier and lazier to pronounce “yoof” than “youth”

For

Young people are creative. They can have their own language and identity

Conclusion

Don’t 5 to communicate with native speakers.

British people also don’t speak English properly.

【題目】It was a cold night in Washington, D.C., and I was heading back to the hotel when a man came to me. He asked if I would give him some money so he could get something to eat. I’d read the signs: “Don’t give money to panhandlers (乞丐).” So I shook my head and kept walking.

I wasn’t prepared for a reply, but he said, “I really am homeless and I really am hungry! You can come with me and watch me eat!” But I kept on walking.

I couldn’t forget what happened to me that day for the rest of the week. I had money in my

pocket and it wouldn’t have killed me to hand over a dollar or two even if he had been lying. On a very cold night, no less, I thought the worst of a fellow human being. Flying back to Anchorage, I still couldn’t help thinking of him.

I was the writer of a weekly garden column (專欄)at The Anchorage Daily News. One day, out of the blue, I came up with an idea. Bean’s Cafe, the soup kitchen in Anchorage, feeds

hundreds of hungry people every day. Why not try to get all my readers to plant one row in their

gardens for Bean’s? Plant a row and take it down to Bean’s. Clean and simple.

We didn’t keep records back then, but the idea began to take off. People would call me when they took something in. Those who only grew flowers gave them away. Food for the spirit.

In 1995 , the Garden Writers Association of America ( GWAA) held their meeting in Anchorage and alter learning of Anchorage’s program, Plant a Row for Bean’s became Plant a Row for the Hungry. The idea was to have every member of the Garden Writers Association of America write or talk about planting a row for the hungry.

As more and more people started working with the program, many companies gave free seed to customers and had the logo (商標(biāo))seen in public.

Garden editor Joan Jackson raised more than 30,000 pounds of fruits and vegetables her first year, and showed the public how the program could really work. Texas fruit farms gave away food to their local food bank alter hearing about Plant a Row. Today the program continues to grow.

I am shocked that millions of Americans are threatened by hunger. If every gardener in

America - and we’re seventy million strong - plants one row for the hungry, we can make a difference in the number of neighbors who don’t have enough to eat. Maybe then I will stop feeling guilty ( ) about walking past a hungry man I could have helped.

1Did the writer give money to the hungry man?

2How did the writer feel alter flying back to Anchorage?

3What did the writer try to get his readers to do?

4What did the GWAA do for the “Plant a Row” program?

5What is the purpose of the program?
