【原文】

My younger brother had always been angry that I had a cell phone and he didn’t. At least, that’s what I thought. You see, he was two years younger than me. Since we were little kids, Daniel always wanted to play with me. When I turned 17, my father gave me a new phone. I spent a lot of time on that phone. Daniel stopped asking me to do things with him. I didn’t miss him much, because I was busy. When I turned 19, I was in college. I got an electronic card from Daniel for my birthday. The message said, “Put your phone down and look at what’s around you!” So I decided to turn my phone off for a day. It was hard! I missed the updates from my friends. I missed playing games. At the same time, I realized that I missed my brother even more. The next morning I called Daniel and invited him to visit me. Since then, we’ve become closer than ever. I still use my phone, but my brother is more important.
