   None of us enjoy feeling sad. But sadness is a natural healthy emotion that tells us something important about our lives and should never be ignored!

   ★ Let it out Have you ever had a good cry and felt better after? That's because crying is a physical outlet that allows us to move through emotion.

   ★If you are feeling sad right now,read this then to honor how you feel. You are feeling sad for a good reason. Sometimes we can change the situation that's making us feel sad and sometimes we can't. For example,if the last of your grown up kids is leaving home and you will miss them; you can't make them stay. But by working through these feelings rather than running away from them,you will discover them easing,leaving room for more positive emotions.

   ★ Spend some time alone with your sadness. Play sad songs or read sad poems,or look at photos that bring these feelings to the fore,and let the tears flow. Only when you touch the depth of your feelings will you start to push your way off the bottom to resurface a more rounded and wiser person,ready to smile and feel joyful again.

   ★ Spend time with friends or people who can relate to your feelings. When you are with people who you love,they will make it easy to cheer you up. You can call a friend or loved one who you can tell your sad story to,and maybe they’ll help you.

When I asked my daughter which item she would keep; the phone, the car, the cooker, the computer, the TV, or her boyfriend, she said “the phone”. Personally, I could do without the phone entirely, which makes me unusual. Because the telephone is changing our lives more than any other piece of technology.

Point 1 The telephone creates the need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more traffic. My daughter comes home from school at 4:00 pm and then spends an hour on the phone talking to the very people she has been at school with all day. If the phone did not exist, would she have anything to talk about?

Point 2 The mobile phone means that we are never alone. “The mobile saved my life,”says Crystal Johnstone. She had an accident in her Volvo on the A45 between Otley and Skipton. Trapped inside, she managed to make the call that brought the ambulance(救护车) to her rescue.

Point 3 The mobile removes our secret. It allows marketing manager of Haba Deutsch, Carl Nicolaisen, to ring his sales staff all round the world at any time of day to ask where they are , where they are going, and how their last meeting went.

Point 4 The telephone separates us. Antonella Bramante in Rome says, “We worked in separate offices but I could see him through the window. It was easy to get his number. We were so near——but we didn’t meet for the first two weeks!”

Point 5 The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives. Today we can talk to several complete strangers simultaneously ( 同时地) on chat lines (at least my daughter does. I wouldn’t know what to talk about). We can talk across the world. We can even talk to astronauts (if you know any) while they’re space-walking. And, with the phone line hooked up to the computer, we can access(存取) the Internet, the biggest library on Earth.

1.How do you understand‘Point 1 —The telephone creates the need to communicate, …’?

A. People don’t communicate without telephone.

B. People communicate because of the creating of the telephone.

C. People communicate more since telephone has been created.

D. People communicate more because of more traffic.

2.Which of the following best shows people’s attitude towards mobile phones?

A. Mobile phones help people deal with the emergency.

B. Mobile phones bring convenience as well as little secret to people.

C. Mobile phones are so important and should be encouraged.

D. Mobile phones are part of people’s life.

3.It is possible to talk to several complete strangers simultaneously through _______.

A. the TV screen

B. a fax machine

C. the phone line hooked up to the computer

D. a microphone

4.The best heading for the passage is _________.

A. Phone Power

B. Kinds of Phone

C. How to Use Phones

D. Advantage of Phones
