Passage 1
When asked by Conan if his daughters had smart phones, comedian Louis CK explained that he had successfully fended them off by simply replying, 'No, you can' t have it. It is bad for you.'
He instantly became my hero as I was mired in difficult negotiations with my ten-year-old daughter over one. And frankly, she was winning. Was it possible to say no to my daughter, as CK suggested? I hadn't even known I was allowed to, if the guinea pigs, the dogs, and things for her doll Molly were any indication. CK rationalized, 'I am not raising the children. I'm raising the grown-ups that they are going to be. So just because the other stupid kids have phones doesn't mean that my kid has to be stupid.' Now I knew I didn't want my kid to grow up stupid like her friends. I needed to explain this to her. This is what CK told Conan and me.
Cell phones are 'toxic, especially for kids,' he said, because they don't help them learn em-pathy, one of the nicer human emotions. When we text, we don't see or hear a visceral reaction.
The response we get is cold and hard text-message. 'Why are kids mean?' He asked. 'Because they're trying it out. They look at another kid and say, 'You're fat.' Then they see the kid's face scrunch up and think that doesn't feel good.' Texting 'you're fat' allows you to bypass the pain.
CK went on to explain that smart phones rob us of our ability to be alone. Kids use smart phones to occupy their time: Must text! Must play game! Must look up more tiny socks online for Molly!!! CK asked, what happened to zoning out? After all, one of the joys of being human is allowing our minds to wander, with cell phones, kids are always preoccupied. They never daydream, except in class. And here's something else we're missing: our right to be miserable. This was a right I hadn't realized I desired until CK pointed out that it's another essential human emotion.
CK gave the example of driving by yourself and suddenly realizing that you're alone. Not 'Oh,guess I can't use the lane' alone. Dark, brooding sadness causes so many drivers to grab that smart phone and reach out to another living soul.
'Everybody's murdering each other with their cars' as they text because they dread being alone. Too bad——they're missing out on a life-affirming experience.
'I was in my car one time, and Bruce Springsteen's 'Jungle land' came on. He sounds so far away, making me really sad. And I think I've got to get the phone and write hi to 50 people. I was reaching for the phone, and I thought, don't! Just be sad.'
So CK pulled over and allowed himself to sob like a little girl denied a nice thing for her American Girl doll. 'It was beautiful. Sadness is poetic. You're lucky to live sad moments,' he said. Because he didn't fight it and allowed himself to be miserable, his body released endorphins.
'Happiness rushed in to meet the sadness. I was grateful to feel sad, and then I met it with true profound happiness. The thing is, because we don't want that first bit of sad, we push it away with that little phone. So you never feel completely sad or completely happy. You just feel kind of satis-fied. And then you die. That's why I don't want to get phones for my kids'.

未分类题【参考答案】范文对于英语写作主要有以下三方面的作用:(1)范文能够说明所用体裁的特点。文章都有一定的体裁,如故事、演讲、会话等。不同的交际目的产生不同的篇章.形成不同的体裁.在篇章结构和语法形式上产生一定的特色。对于中国学生而言,虽然他们很早就知道文章有记叙文、说明文等的分别.虽然他们从一开始就学会了按“三段式”来组织文章(第一段是论点,第二段是主要内容,包括论证的证据或故事的情节等,第三段是结论),但范文的作用在他们的外语写作中仍然不可忽视。一方面,汉语的语篇模式和英语的语篇模式并不完全一致。一般而言,汉语的主题往往不直接点出,需要先有一个所谓的铺垫,而英语文章的主题往往直截了当地给出。另一方面.具体的范文远比一些抽象的分类更具有操作意义上的指导作用.(2)范文是说明英语语篇衔接手段如何使用的最好语境。连贯是篇章的主要特征,使用各种语篇衔接手段是建立语篇连贯的主要途径。熟悉这些英语的衔接手段能够大大减轻写作过程中的微计划(micro-planning)所带来的负担,加快语言生成的速度。微计划生成语言信息,明确如何分配主题、焦点或新信息等内容,与具体的语言有关。英语中是否有现成的信息衔接手段显然会影响信息的分配和组织.(3)范文能够开阔学生的思路。写什么是写作计划需要解决的问题.也是学生感到非常苦恼的事情。扩大知识面是解决这个问题的主要途径。另外,要学会在动笔前积极思考,激活并调用大脑中已有的知识,养成良好的写作习惯和思维习惯。范文在教学中的使用步骤及每个步骤的教学目标:(1)利用范文进行谋篇布局。师生要能够在范文的结构和语言方面进行讨论,并弄清楚两个问题:①这类文章结构和语言如何为文章的交际目的服务;②还有哪些别的可能的结构和语言上的变化。只有这样.学生才能最大限度地利用范文来指导写作而不受范文的限制.才有可能避免全班学生千篇一律的现象、(2)利用范文达到连贯的效果。该步骤的教学目标是使学习者在写作中避免出现连接语使用不够的现象.造成文章的逻辑跳跃性很大.理解起来比较困难。也有相当一部分学生主观上想尽量多用连接语,以加强句子之间的衔接.但结果是连接语过分堆积,不仅不能增强语义方面的衔接力.反而往往会增加冗余信息.甚至造成语义上的逻辑混乱。这种现象也是写作教学应尽量避免的内容。(3)利用范文开阔学生的写作思路。这一阶段的目标是培养学生积极思考的习惯.使学生能够开阔自己的思路.这是影响学生写作的关键因素。
