2．Which tablet computer should YOU be buying：They are this year's must have…and there's a style to suit everyone？

Best for young children LeapPad Explorer 2，£68  Aimed at chil dren between three and nine （though a nine-year-old might find it a little simple），it comes in pink or blue and with five built-in education games （you can buy more）．Besides，the LeapPad does not allow access to the internet-so it is impossible for your child to stumble across anything inappropriate． Pros：The education games are well-designed，the built-in video camera is a fun way to play at being a film director． Cons：Some of the games are shockingly expensive．And the power adaptor is not included．

Best for teenagers iPad 4th generation，£399-£659  The iPad is still the market leader，and for good reason．If the teenager in your house enjoys playing computer games，the latest offering from Apple is the one to choose． Pros：No other tablet can compete with the near one million‘a(chǎn)pps'（the name Apple created for specially-designed downloadable programs） available for the iPad．Simple to use，even for those who usually struggle with technology． Cons：Considerably more expensive than most competitors．

Best for working parents Microsoft Surface，£399-£559 Tablets are brilliant for leisure-but what if you want to do a bit of work？No tablet can yet compete with  a full-size laptop computer，but  this is the only tablet  that allows you to use Microsoft Word，Excel and Powerpoint （they are all pre-installed and included in the price） and you  can buy a pretty lovely mini-keyboard for typing letters and emails，which also doubles up as the cover． Pros：The Surface is good for watching movies-a bonus when stuck in the airport on a business trip-and surfing the internet． Con：The keyboard is an expensive add-on-costing up to£109．It might be cheaper to buy a laptop （though a tablet is much smaller and lighter）．

Best for bookworms Amazon Kindle Paperwhite，£109 Nearly all tablets let you download books．It's a great way to take a mountainous pile of hardbacks on holiday without stuffing your suitcase． But most tablets have a shiny screen-which can be very distracting when you're trying to read．The Paperwhite is different：its matt screen and crisp black lettering imitate the look of words on paper brilliantly．And yet you can still read the words in the dark． Pros：Easy on the eye，excellent battery life，180，000 free books （if you subscribe to the Amazon Prime customer loyalty service） plus hundreds of thousands more to buy． Cons：No TV，films，games，internet or camera．

20．閱讀下面的短文，然后按要求寫一篇150字左右的英語短文．
Mayor Bloomberg has been the mayor of New York City for nearly nine years，but for ten years he has been wearing the same shoes．This is really rare to be seen on a billionaire．
"The mayor owns two pairs of work shoes，"said the spokesman．"One day he'll wear one，the next the other．When they got worn down，he has them repaired．He could buy any shoes he wanted，but he says since they are comfortable，and they work，there's no need for a new pair．"According to the spokesman，the mayor saves in his footwear and he also keeps it up in his personal as well as governmental finance．"When he buys a cup of coffee，he chooses the smallest size．He buys only what he needs．"
Such is the mayor of New York City，who cares little about his shoes，avoids wasting money and focuses his attention on his work and his people in the city．
But what about our fellow students nowadays？Some wear super expensive clothes and shoes； besides，they buy as many as possible，far more than two pairs．They always want the latest，the newest and throw the old ones away though they haven't worn them for many times．

Some post-80s graduates have given up the dream of working in a big city，and heading back home has become part of future job consideration．Two of the more common ones are trying to avoid the intense competition and the pressure，and seeing unprecedented opportunities in the growing economies back home．
Changping．a(chǎn) 22-year-old student from Hainan University，said that if he would decide on starting his business，he'd certainly return to his hometown，Xiangfan，in Hubei Province．That was because he has his own network of people who could help him in every way．Also，he could get some good business ideas like setting up advanced kindergartens in small cities．If no one was doing that，the chance of being successful seemed higher．
But Chen Haihua，a college student from Guangzhou Medical College，said that she would plan to stick to a big city，Guangzhou，instead of going back to her hometown，Zhanjiang，in Guangdong Province．She wanted to struggle in the big city for a more exciting，better life．She explained that she also could be a role model，letting the kids in her hometown work hard Io go to key universities．
