     [1] World Consumer Rights  Day is celebrated annually by consumer organizations worldwide. It
commemorates the historic declaration on March 15,1962 by John F.Kennedy,the former US President,
of the basic Rights of consumers,which include: "the right to  safety","the right to be informed","the right to
choose",and "the right to be heard".
     [2]This_declaration_has_led_to_international_recognition_by_governments_and_the_United_Nations_
that_all_citizens,regardless of their_incomes_or_social_standing,have_certain_basic Rights_as_consumers.Officially,World Consumer Rights Day was first observed on March 15,1983 and has since become an

Consumer Protection that provide a framework for strengthening national consumer protection policies
around the world.

satisfaction of basic needs;the right to redress (赔偿);the right to education;and the right to a healthy
environment.Currently,the fundamental consumer rights are recognized globally.

     [1] I was walking in the park with a friend recently,and his cell phone rang,interrupting our
conversation.There we were,walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day.But I became invisible,absent
from the conversation.
     [2] The telephone used to connect you to the absent.Now it makes people sitting next to you  feel
absent.Recently I was in a car with three friends.The driver told us to be quiet because he could not hear
the person on the other end of his cell phone.There we were,four friends going down the highway,unable
to talk to one another because of a tool designed to make  communication easier.
     [3] Why is it that the more connected we get,____________?Every advance in  communications
technology is a hurt to the closeness of human interaction (互动). With email and instant messaging over
the Internet,we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another.With voice mail,you can
conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone.
     [4] More_and_more,I_find_myself hiding_behind_email to_do_a_job_ meant_for conversation.Or
being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didn't really have time to talk.The industry devoted to
helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier.

cellphoning in the presence of friends,no letting the voice mail pick up when I'm home.

     [1] There is always a way to be friends with everyone.Don't be afraid to talk to people.
Meeting strangers is the best way to make new friends!
     [2] If the group you want to be friends with is a shy group,and you're a little more sociable,
never ask them "Why don't you talk?" or "Why are you quiet?" They hate that.It's rude.Don't
do it.If you're shy and you want to get into a sociable group,then just try to get a little attention,
but try not to overdo it.No one likes a showoff.And remember that each group will be different.
Observe what is appropriate for each group,and act accordingly,but don't change yourself
just to fit in.
     [3] Always be outgoing,and going out.Be outgoing,and you will ____________within a
group.Go out a lot so that you will hang out with different groups.Being friends with everyone
is time and energy consuming,because you must be friendly,outgoing,and willing to hang out,
leaving very little time to yourself.That is something you have to consider before going and
trying to be so popular.
     [4] However,being friends with everyone can be difficult.You may feel torn between
friends;who to hang out with if it can't be done at once.And if for any reason you cannot
continue with the demanding time schedule,friends will fade rapidly.Make_sure_to_have a_
couple_strong friends,or_it_may_be possible_for_all_of_your_friends_to_become_just_
acquaintances.
     [5] Just remember:Don't forget who your real friends are.Don't become friends with
someone just because they are a cheerleader or really popular.
