Count Me Out
Call me old-fashioned. Call me old. Call me what you want, but I refuse to become part of this new Internet world.
I do not possess a computer at home or at the office. Actually, I stopped going to an office 35 years ago, when all communications were done with a pen, a typewriter, or, if the matter was of world-shaking importance, over the telephone. Likewise, if you like something advertised in a newspaper or magazine, you visited the shop selling it at the given address, or you phoned the number shown. Then you spoke to the fellow and asked for further details.
Tell me what you think of the following ad that appeared the other day in the newspaper. It was for a cure for cancer and this is what it said: “Awareness is the key. Visit spfulford. com at the awareness site.” There was no address or telephone number for the site. So what do unfortunate people without a computer do if they are seeking a cure for their illness?
There are, I am told, certain advantages in having access to the Internet. You can, for example, send love messages across the world or even get married to someone that you meet online. This bit doesn’t interest me; I have been happily married for 60 years. There are, of course, other activities for Internet users besides finding love. They can pay bills, order groceries, or discuss with their doctors.
And this is by no means all. More amazing things are yet to come in the near future. I read a newspaper report recently that quoted Stephen Hawking, an important British scientist. “The complexity of a computer as it exists today is probably less than the brain of an earthworm,” he said. “But, as technology advances, computers will become more complex, and a time may come when the Internet may develop ‘consciousness.’ In other words, the Internet will be able to think, have feelings, and may well be able to act on its own.”
If Professor Hawking is right, I may change my attitude to computers. As I grow older each day, I would like one of those that not only thinks for me but also accepts responsibilities for all my mistakes.

I had the privilege to visit the Bridge of Forgiveness in Palawan during the time when I was on the summer’s team.
After the long and exciting week,we had a chance to 21 the place where we were assigned(指定).We 22 the narrow hanging bridge made of two bamboos and a long rope which you can hold 23 for your life as you cross it. I was so afraid of 24 , especially here ,and I think most of us were not 25 to crossing so high a bridge 26 ,our team leader told us that we must cross this bridge in order to see the splendid falls that lie out on the other 27 .
“As you cross this bridge,think about 28 difficult,but it is possible”.
Many times in our lives we face 29 that we don’t expect---broken relationships,betrayal(背叛)of a friend, etc.,and all we can do is 30 . But I noticed that life must go on, and all the burdens must be 31 through forgiveness---forgiveness of yourself and others.
I didn’t understand my cousin 32 she told me I should 33 all those unfriendly guys with 34 . But as I grow older,I realize that lying in the past 35 and guilt will not serve me well.
Once I forgave serious 36 ,I noticed that I couldn’t forget them but every time I remembered them, I 37 . There aer no more pains brought just by the thought of them.
After all,life is good 38 all the hardships pains and difficulties,life teaches me to be 39 in facing and adversity（逆境）while at the same time it makes me 40 to those who suffer, If somebody does something terrible to me,I have to think back the bridge of forgiveness---difficult but possible.
