“Cleverness is a gift while kindness is a choice. Gifts are easy- they’re given after all. Choices can be hard.” - Jeff Bezos.

I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago. I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2,300 percent per year. I’d never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast, and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me. I had just turned 30 years old and I’d been married for a year. I told my wife Mackenzie that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn’t work since most start-ups don’t and I wasn’t sure what to expect. Mackenzie told me I should go for it. As a young boy, I’d been a garage inventor. I’d always wanted to be an inventor and she wanted me to follow my passion.

I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people, and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park, listened carefully to me, and finally said “That sounds like a really good idea, but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn’t already have a good job.” That logic made some sense to me, and he persuaded me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision. Seen in that light, it really was a difficult choice, but finally, I decided I had to give it a shot. I didn’t think I’d regret trying and failing. And I believed I would always be haunted(萦绕) by a decision to not try at all.

After much consideration, I took the less safe path to follow my passion, and I’m proud of that choice. For all of us, in the end, we are our choices.

Technology is everywhere. Computers and smart phones are at the center of almost everything we do. We text our friends during the day, sleep with our devices by our beds and check our messages as soon as we wake up.

In the future, technology will no longer interrupt(打断) us all the time. Instead, we will use calm technology—it was first developed by scientist Mark Weiser in the 1970s.

Calm technology works quietly without stopping, at the edge of our attention. We know it is there, but we don't focus on it. According to Mark, the best technology should be invisible(无形的) and let you live your life.

We already use many different types of calm technology in our everyday lives. A smoke alarm checks the air for smoke and quietly keeps you safe. It only reminds you it's there when you've burned your toast! There may be lights at home or school that are sensitive to movement. When somebody passes by their sensor(传感器), the lights turn on. Even a microwave oven is an example of calm technology. You're not standing at the stovetop heating your food: the microwave is doing it for you.

In the future, our houses will use calm technology to do a lot of things. For example, open the windows for us in the morning, turn down the heat when we leave, or even choose the best music for us. When we walk into the door, our house will turn on the lights, set the heater, and prepare for our dinner!

1.完成句子We often sleep with our devices by our beds and ________________________________ when we wake up.

2.完成句子In the future, technology will no longer_________________________ all the time and we will use calm technology, instead.

3.回答问题What should the best technology be according to Mark?

____________________________________________________________________________

4.找出并写下第四段的主题句 ________________________________________________________________________

5.将文中画线句子译成汉语。 ________________________________________________________________________
