A

MY mother used to say things just to make me mad. Like most teenagers, I thought I knew everything. And what I didn’t know, I didn’t want to be told. For example, if I said I was going to a movie, my mother would roll her eyes. On my way out, she’d shout ,“You need to slow

yourself down before something bad happens! You don’t want to learn that the hard way!” I didn’t know what that meant. I thought she just wanted me to stay at home.

Many years later I had three teenagers of my own. They thought they knew everything. I would say the same things to them like my mom. That’s when I first saw it. My mother wasn’t trying to help me.

Why do we always have to learn things“the hard way”? Why can’t we just accept our elders’ wisdom? It’s a good lesson for anyone. Clearly, I still haven’t learned it.

Yesterday, I stepped out of the shower when I heard my cell phone ringing in the kitchen. Grabbing a towel, I ran through the house. I grabbed the phone and hit my left foot against the table. The X-ray showed that I’d broken two toes.

We all need to slow ourselves down once in a while, before something bad does it for us. My mother was right about a lot of things. I wish I could have told her. 26. The writer felt ______ when mother used to say things.

A. happy B. nervous C. angry D. Surprised 27. The underlined sentence means_________

What would life be like if you give up using your cell phone? Will it become boring? Twenty-eight eighth-graders at St. Matthew School in San Francisco will tell you it can still be rich and colorful.

The idea was to help students understand how technology has affected their lives, said Denise Uhl, principal of the school.

Uhl did a survey on technology usage among the eighth-graders before thinking of the challenge. She found that 84 percent of the students said they didn’t like it “when everyone was on their cell phones”, but they didn’t know what to do about it. The answer was actually easy --- to stop constantly using cell phones.

To help students understand the point, Uhl created the activity. It was warmly welcomed among students.

“I wanted to sign up for the tech-free challenge because it was just really a good idea to do it,” eighth-grader Joe told local newspaper Catholic San Francisco. “I wanted to get closer to my family. And it really worked. I started to hang out with my family more. We watched
