Recently I was invited to a friend’s house for supper—and had a meal I have never had before.
All the friends invited were a little 36 . It’s not that Ben is unsociable, or a bad cook, but it’s just that he never 37 more than he has to. So how come he was inviting us round for a meal? Had he bought something 38 for his friends? He greeted us at the door and showed us into his dining room where a 39 table was waiting for us. “Nothing but the 40 for my friends! ” said Ben. We all sat down and looked 41 at each other—what was he 42 ?
Ben returned with four bowls of hot soup. “It’s a 43 of carrots, potatoes and tomatoes, ”said Ben. The next 44 was also a little strange 45 we didn’t quite know what it was again. “It’s just another mixture of vegetables. ”
As we ate we chatted and finally the 46 turned back to what we were eating. “Was there a recipe(菜谱) for this, ”asked Marina, “or did you 47 it up? ”Ben put his fork down. “What I cooked 48 what I could find. ”Marina was surprised. “But you can find anything in supermarkets these days. ”“But there’s 49 choice in what you can find 50 supermarkets, ” he replied.
51 that we had all finished the food, Ben decided to tell the truth. He had read recently that supermarkets usually 52 away 5 percent of their food every day. So Ben decided to look inside his local supermarket bins. There he found food that was slightly out of 53 , boxes of thrown-away vegetables and fruit.
So Ben had 54 provided a decent meal for his friends, and made us aware of the fact that there are many poor people who need the food, but the amount of food thrown away is enough to 55 millions of people.

With the invention of the Internet several decades ago, do you feel that since then it has made us human beings feel more connected to the world and one another, or has it isolated(使孤立)us and made us feel more alone than ever before?
What about you as an individual?
● 2 The Internet enables us to know what’s happening in the world．We couldn't imagine talking to people everywhere in the world twenty years ago．
● 3 It unites us because we talk to others from all around our country and the world, but the Internet can be addicting, and keep us away from people for a while, There is an inherent(内在的)human need for direct human contact(e．g．touching, talking face to face, etc．)that the Internet has all taken away．
● 4 It has given me freedom beyond my imagination．I’m home-bound with many duties to attend to．My life is a bit too crowded．Duties duties duties．I get lost many times not knowing who I really am！This medium is my best friend．It just lets me BE！I can speak here without fear or favor．
● 5 Chatting online is completely different from hanging out with friends outside or hearing their voice over the phone．I find that it’s not just the Internet that has increased this sense of isolation, even iPods, MP3s, such devices can separate us, make us lose focus on the everyday happenings of life．
