  Lately, I am often asked about my favorite current TV show.The questioner is shocked to hear I rarely watch TV.Whether it is an at-home date night or some good time alone, I can always find something fun to do without the noise and distraction of a TV show.That's not to say there aren't times when I do turn to DVD's or the Internet to watch shows.It's just that there are so many things to do.

  There are many games that are grown-up enough to hold my interest.Another activity that kills time is putting to use the building block sets I still have from my childhood.It's very satisfying to achieve a feat of engineering by the end of an evening.It's likewise great fun to create playful artwork by bedtime while avoiding overstimulation from electronic devices.

  Nothing sucks up creativity like an entire evening spent watching TV.So, whether I'm in the mood to paint, play my flute, or make something out of clay, I make time to do it.I always hear people complain there isn't enough time to do what they want, but some are the same people who are shocked that I rarely watch TV.Considering their complaints, it is ironic that on June 22, 2011 the Bureau of Labor Statistics released the results of the American Time Use Survey and stated “Watching TV was the leisure activity occupying the most time(2.7hours per day), accounting for about half of leisure tine on average, for those aged 15 and over”.

  Sometimes I just come home to find stillness and release the tensions of the day.I turn on neither TV nor the computer, but opt for yoga, a hot bath, a good book, or an early bedtime.Though it might seem extravagant(奢侈的)to go to bed around 9:00p.m., it can really make a difference.Especially when something is bothering me, the distraction of TV only complicates my thoughts, and I can better cope with the world if I just relax.

  My evenings of rare TV are enjoyable.It's these evenings of play, creativity and relaxation that make a better-rounded lifestyle.

  Learning experiences happen to us throughout our lives.Not long ago, I had one that I would like to   1  .

  I was going to Marblehead with my sailboat team.The team was racing down the highway at 85mph   2   we realized we were   3  .Luckily, we saw a rest area ahead.I had a brand-new $ 20 bill.I was so   4   because I had never had that kind of cash before.But spending it on   5   seemed like throwing it away.We all rushed into the pizza line.  6   I got a pizza and a drink, and walked to my table.About halfway through the meal, I   7   I had not actually handed any money to the cashier(收银员).I had just   8   out, and nobody had noticed.I felt terrible.

  My conscience(良心)opened its mouth and swallowed me in one big bite.I couldn’t   9   over it.I just couldn’t go back to the cashier and   10   for my stolen pizza.I was so upset that I   11   to give myself the pleasure of an ice cream for   12   that someone would say, “Hey, Jeff, why don’t you use the change   13   the pizza instead of that nice, new $ 20 bill?” I was not so   14   of my cash now.

  For the next two years, whenever I was   15   of the “pizza incident”, I would say to myself, “Don’t think about it……”

  I have learned two things from this   16  .Maybe I was a fool for   17   in to my conscience, and being too stupid to enjoy a   18   pizza.But the real lesson is that even if you get away from what you have done, your conscience will   19   up with you.

  This reflects(反映)the saying, “A coward(懦夫)dies a thousand deaths, a hero dies one.” I was a coward and have felt terrible about that incident at least a thousand times.If I had been a “  20  ” and gone back to pay for the pizza, I would have felt a little uncomfortable about it only once, or maybe twice.
