阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。
Howard and Lizzie Sherman, ages 15 and 9, know that they need to complete all their homework and chores(家务) in order to receive their weekly allowance. The amount may be a little less than usual if they’ve misbehaved or a bit larger if they have done some extra work around the house.
When the children want to use their allowance, they turn on the family’s computer or television, which is often known as “screen time.” Screen time can be also spent visiting social networking sites like My Space or instant messaging with friends. This new currency, used in a growing number of households, works as an allowance because screen time is highly valued by children and teenagers, and usually restricted by parents. Parents think that their children’s time would be better spent reading a book, playing outside or talking directly to another person.

A group of graduates, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor.
The conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and in life. Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and a variety of cups ― plastic, glass, crystal, some plain-looking, some expensive, some fine ― telling them to help themselves to the coffee.
When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: “If you noticed, all the nice-looking, expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress.”
“What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups and were eyeing each other's cups.”
“Now consider this: Life is the coffee and the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain life, and do not change the quality of life. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee. So, don't let the cups drive you... enjoy the coffee instead.”
