20．Everywhere I look outside my home I see people busy on their high-tech devices，while driving，walking，shopping，even sitting in toilets．When connected electronically，they are away from physical reality．
People have been influenced to become technology addicted．One survey reported that"addicted"was the word most commonly used by people to describe their relationship to iPad and similar devices．One study found that people had a harder time resisting the allure of social media than they did for sleep，cigarettes and alcohol．

I see people trapped in a pathological（病态的）relationship with time-sucking technology，where they serve technology more than technology serves them．I call this technology servitude．I am referring to a loss of personal freedom and independence because of uncontrolled consumption of many kinds of devices that eat up time and money．
What is a healthy use of technology devices？That is the vital question．Who is really in charge of my life？That is what people need to ask themselves if we are to have any chance of breaking up false beliefs about their use of technology．When we can live happily without using so much technology for a day or a week，then we can regain control and personal freedom，become the master of technology and discover what there is to enjoy in life free of technology．Mae West is famous for proclaiming the wisdom that"too much of a good thing is wonderful．"But it's time to discover that it does not work for technology．
Richard Fernandez，an executive coach at Google acknowledged that"we can be swept away by our technologies．"To break the grand digital connection people must consider how life long ago could be fantastic without today's overused technology．

10．Selfies（自拍）have become an increasingly common way to capture memorable moments．When it comes to taking selfies，knowing the following tips can directly affect the quality of your final product．
（36）CLights can help avoid shadows and create soft features on your face，so turn your face toward the main light source．If you want to be creative，play with light angles by turning your body，but make sure the photo is properly exposed and your face is lit from the front or the side．（37）GIn addition，natural light possesses a warmth that makes you look like you're glowing．
When taking selfies，angles also matter a lot．Hold the camera away from your face，and try to take photos both horizontally and vertically．（38）FIdeally，the universal selfie angle is 45 degrees above your head．But you should study your face at different angles because finding your best angle requires you having seen all of them．（39）AYou can always do more to show others your best side．Try to simplify the background by taking selfies outdoors or in spacious areas．Document yourself engaging in interesting activities-hiking with family members，visiting landmarks，or working out with friends．（40）DYou can also download some photo apps that allow you to adjust the lighting and contrast．Some apps offer useful filters，which can change your skin tone and remove pimples（粉刺）on your face．

17．From Monday to Friday，most people are busy working or studying，but in the evenings and on weekends they are free to relax and enjoy（61）themselves （they）．Some watch TV（62）orgo to the cinema．Others take part in sports．There are many different ways（63）to spend（spend） their spare time．

model airplanes．Some hobbies are expensive，（65）but（或while） others don't cost anything at all．Some（66）collections  （collect）
are worth a lot of money．Others are valuable only to the owners．
I know （67）a man who has a coin collection worth $250．He was very happy about his purchase and（68）thought（think） the price was reasonable．On the other hand，my youngest brother collects matchboxes．He has almost 600of them but I doubt if they are worth any money．However，to my brother they are （69）extremely （extreme） valuable．Nothing makes him（70）happier （happy） than to find a new matchbox for his collection．
This is what a hobby means，I guess．It is something we like to do in our spare time simply for fun．The value in dollars is not important．We do it for the pleasure it gives．

Direction （66）means（mean）objectives．You can go nowhere without an objective in life．
