Now in a world piled high with smartphones，tablets and e-readers，technology has entered the classroom in ways unimaginable. Taking classes can be fun too. A11 you have to do is swipe your fingers on your phone screen and download same Apps, which can make your study more fun and efficient. Balancing study and play in a college setting has never been easy----and with the following few apps, it'll be tough to tell the two apart.

Evernote

　 Use: note-taking

　 Can be used on：Phone/iPad/iPod touch，Android，BlackBerry，PalmOS and Windows Phone 7

　 Price：free

　 It's hard to imagine that with all the magical gadgets (新发明), the eager, studious types would still take out a notepad，pencil，and highlighter-and take notes in class. While it's not an actual planner or calendar App，if you take notes to stay organized，then Evermote is for you. The main thing about Evernate is that all of your notes are automatically sent into the cloud(云储存平台上）---and then you can access them from any web-connected computer via the Evermote App or a web browser. Evermote also support audio and photo notes-rather handy if you want to record your lecture or take photos of any projected notes. But，of course, ask for permission first.

Wikipanion

　 Use：research database

　 Can be used on：iPhone/Pad/iPod touch

　 Price：free（Wikipanion Plus for＄4, 99，or 31．87 yuan)

　 Now，you don't necessarily have to go to a library or anywhere with computer services to do research work for your paper anymore. You can get access to the research databases just on your smartphone or tablet. Wikipanion gives you a simplified version of Wikipedia without leaving out any of the site's extra features. The normal links that you'd see to each section of an article no longer on the main screen. Instead，there's a small icon(图示影像) located at the bottom of the app，which can be used to access all the sections of an article. You can also open the links in Safari(苹果)Safari(浏览器）．According to the developers' site, loading Wikipedia pages with Wikipanion is a lot faster than accessing the Wikipedia site from the iPhone's browses(浏览器). To be honest，we agree.

Several years ago, while attending a communication course, I experienced a most unusual process．The instructor asked us to list 　1 in our past that we felt 　2　 of, regretted, or incomplete about and read our lists aloud．

This seemed like a very 3 process, but there' s always some 　4 soul in the crowd who will volunteer．The instructor then 　5 that we find ways to 　6 people, or take some action to right any wrong doings．I was seriously wondering how this could ever 7 my communication．

Then the man next to me raised his hand and volunteered this story: “Making my 　8 , I remembered an incident from high school．I grew up in a small town．There was a Sheriff 　9 of us kids liked．One night, my two buddies(伙伴) and I decided to play a 　10 on him．

After drinking a few beers, we climbed the tall water tank in the middle of the town, and wrote on the tank in bright red paint: Sheriff Brown is a s．o．b．（畜生）．The next day, almost the whole town saw our glorious 　11 ．Within two hours, Sheriff Brown had us in his office．My friends told the truth but I 　12 ．No one ever found out.

Nearly 20 years later．Sheriff Brown's name 　13 on my list．I didn't even know if he was still 　14 ．Last weekend, I dialed the information in my hometown and found there was a Roger Brown still listed．I tried his number．After a few 　15 , 1 heard, "Hello?"

“And I want you to know that I did it?” Paused．“I knew it!” he yelled back．We had a good laugh and a 　16 discussion．His closing words were: “Jimmy, I always felt bad for you 　17 your buddies got it off their chest, but you were carrying it 　18 all these years．I want to thank you for calling me for your sake.”

Jimmy inspired me to 　19 all the items on my list within two years, and I always remember what I learned from the course: It's never too late to 　20 the past wrongdoings．
