When I opened the box at my 12th birthday party, I couldn't believe my eyes. I really got a cell phone! As soon as I got to my school the next morning I showed off my phone and asked everyone for their number. I wouldn't listen to the teachers because I was too busy on my phone.

A week later we took a test and I got Grade d for the first time. To make matters worse, my mom had to sign the test. It was hard to show my mom the paper. She never saw “D”on my tests .Well, finally, I showed her and she couldn't believe it. She was angry but most of all, she was disappointed(失望).

Weeks passed and my parents started to dislike the fact that I had a phone. They would say, "We have noticed that you never talk to us. It's like you have your own little world now and your phone is more important than anything else. First I thought hey were wrong, but then I got to know that I was spending too much time on the phone.

A week later I tried going a whole day without a cell phone and it didn’t go that badly I had so much fun because I was actually spending time with my family and caring about them. From that day,I had a different idea towards cell phones.

Phones really take you away from the rest of the world. I'm not saying that phones are bad and not to use them but you do have to spend some time with your family and not play with your phone all day, My phone took away time from my homework and from my family. That,s why I didn't do well in the test.

So, I will keep using my phone, but I will have it under better control(控制).

1.Was the cell phone the writer's birthday gift?

2.How did the writer's mother feel when she saw the test paper?

3.Why did the writer have fun for a whole day without the phone?

4.What does the writer want to tell us?
