B

(2017·郑州第一次质检)Last year I ruined my summer vacation by bringing along a modern convenience that was too convenient

for my own good:the iPad.Instead of looking at nature, I checked my email.Instead of paddling a small boat, I followed my Twitter feed (推特简讯).Instead of reading great novels, I stuck to reading four newspapers each morning.I was behaving as if I were still in the office.My body was on vacation but my head wasn’t.

So this year I made up my mind to try something different; withdrawal (退出) from the Internet.I knew it wouldn’t be easy, since I’m bad at self-control.But I was determined.I started by handing the iPad to my wife.

The cell phone signal at our house was worse than in the past, making my attempts cheating an experience in frustration (沮丧).I was trapped, forced to go through with

my plan.Largely cut off from email, Twitter and my favorite newspaper websites, I had few ways to connect to the world except for radio—and how much radio can one listen to, really?I had no choice but to do what I had planned to all along:read books.

This experience has had a happy ending.With determination and the strong support of my wife, I won in my vacation struggle against the Internet, realizing finally that it was I, not the iPad, that was the problem.I knew I had won when we passed a Starbucks and my wife asked if I wanted to stop to use the Wi-Fi.“I don’t need it,” I said.

However, as we return to post-vacation life, a harder test begins:Can I continue when I’m back at work?

There are times when the need to know what’s being said right now is great.And I have no intention of giving up my convenience completely.But I hope to resist the temptation (诱惑) to check my e-mail every five minutes, which leads to checking my Twitter feed and a website or two.

I think a vacation is supposed to help you reset your brain to become more productive.Here I hope this one worked.

【解题导语】 假期中,“我”认识到了使用网络对自己的影响,于是决定将iPad交给妻子,以抵制网络的诱惑。
