Facebook means never having to say goodbye. The social media web site has earned a reputation for reconnecting old friends. Last week, a guy whom I hadn't seen since my bachelor party five years ago sent me a friend request. I accepted and waited for him to send me a greeting of some kind. He had sought me out, after all.
I learned from his profile that he was in a relationship and had a son. However, I'm pretty sure we won’t ever write wall-to-wall, let alone e-mail each other. But he'll remain a friend of online until one of us makes a point of removing the other from his official list.
My pool of friends consists of family members, college buddies, co-workers from past and present, and friends of friends. There are 35 in all. If I spent some time uploading old e-mail addresses, I'm confident that I could increase my friend count actually.
A person could make a mission out of reconnecting with childhood friends, former classmates, distant cousins, and those one would like to get to know better. And some people can even handle hundreds of on-screen relationships, keeping up with the daily happenings of their small army of companions. After all, there are worse fates than having too many friends.
Thanks to e-mail, the inability to schedule face-to-face meetings no longer means a friendship must come to a close. But even with e-mail, people will lose touch if one or both parties stop writing back. That's normal. People move from school to school, job to job, city to city. You never have to feel guilty for breaking away.
Every day, the masterminds of Web 2. 0 find new ways of making human communication easier. However, convenience can be a crutch. Some things shouldn't be simplified. When it comes to friendship, there can be no shortcuts.

Bar codes are one way that the U.S. Postal Service streamlines mail of the wrong hands. A letter that comes without a bar code or cancelled stamp might not have been processed by the U.S. Postal Service and it might indicate that something's fishy.(可疑的)Can you decode a bar code the way the U.S. Postal Service can?

Here’s How

1.Here's how to read the bar code on your letter.

·Most U.S. letter bar codes have bars of two lengths: long and short.

·Every bar code should start and end with long bars; ignore those.

·Look at the rest of the bars in groups of five, starting with the second bar. Each group of five represents one digit.(数字)

2. Here's how to figure out what those digits are.

·The five bars stand for one of these numbers: 7, 4, 2, 1, 0.

·Some genius figured out that this range would allow you to come up with the digits 0 to 9. You do it by adding the numbers of the long bars together.

Say you have this bar code:

Here, the 4 and 2 places have long bars. Added together, they total 6, so this bar code stands for 6.

Say you have this bar code:

The 1 and 0 places have long bars. Added together, they total 1, so this bar code stands for 1.

Say you have this bar code:

The 7 and 4 pieces have long bars. Added together, they total 11, but there is no 11 in this system, so this bar code stands for 0.

3. Now let's look at the bar code on a letter.

Ignore the first and last bars of the whole bar code. Then look at the next 20 bars to find the zip code (0680). The next two sets of five bars give your mail carrier’s number (10153). The rest of the bars in the bar code indicate the house or maibox number. The house number is 32.

63.Why does US Postal Service just use five numbers for the five bars?

      A.They are easy to read.                          B.They are ohosen only by accident.

       C.They can stand for the long bars.          D.They are enough to make ten digits.

64.Which of the following bar codes otands for “7” according to the text?

65.According to the text, we know that          .

       A.the bar code often beings with a short bar                             

       B.the last short her is often ignored

       C.the mail route should follow the zip code

       D.the bar code can show your house color

66.The purpose of the text is to let us know how to           .

       A.create a bar code                                 B.recognize a bar code

       C.send a letter                                        D.make the maibox safe
