1 . 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落的开头续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

This summer vacation has nearly come to an end, but I have hardly finished reading any useful books or updated any satisfactory writings. With an empty head and a guilty feeling, I owe this to my involuntary addition to the mobile phone.

This is not because I have more free time and rely on my MP as a time-killer. On the contrary, I am occupied by various chores and time left at my will is only pieces of hours. I give up doing serious and creative things during these fragments of hours, making excuses for myself: “I am tired so I need to do something easy and relaxing...” But, sticking my face to the MP turns out to be by no means relaxing. My vision becomes more unclear and precious time is wasted.

The prime culprit(元凶) should be WeChat: Being quick-responsive to any message sent to me is a bad habit; Being afraid of losing track of what all my “friends” are doing comes at a price; The colorful ads of “daigou” sacks(洗劫) not only my purse... The other two accomplices (共犯) that l need to put in jail at once are Taobao and Koala (though I know I can’t bear to do that!)

I have to admit that a lot of apps provide much convenience to my life, such as dictionaries, maps, music, e-books and apps for stock dealing, for taxi booking, for ticket and hotel booking, for picture processing etc. The side effect is that I am so buried in these attractive apps that I just can’t put my MP down, close my eyes for a while and think what my priority is.

At night, I happily get onto my bed with a book in my hand, hoping to enjoy some “quality” time by myself.

2 . As young people spend more time on computers, iPad and other TV sets, researchers are asking how all that screen time affects children’s and teenagers’ ability to focus and learn — even drive cars.

An online survey offers a new question: how is technology affecting their happiness and emotional development? The answer, from girls ages 8 to 12 having the online habits, is that those who say they spend amounts of time using multimedia describe themselves in ways that suggest they are less happy and less socially comfortable than other teenagers who say they spend less time on screens.

Among the key questions that the researchers are not able to answer is whether the heavy use of media is the cause for the relative unhappiness or whether girls who are less happy to begin with are drawn to heavy use of media, in fact, coming to a virtual (虚拟的) world. But the researchers assume that heavy use of media is a main factor to the social challenges of girls.

The reason the researchers say is that on a basic level girls need to experience the full face-to-face communication, such as learning to read body language and facial expressions.

Lucy Gray, 45, who lives in Chicago, said her daughter, Julia, 13 has been a heavy consumer of media for several years -she watches movies on her laptop, and has an iPad, an iPhone and a Nintendo DS portable game machine. Ms. Gray said that Julia can have trouble getting on with other people especially adults in face-to-face interactions, but she is not ready to blame her daughter’s heavy use of technology.

In fact, she thinks that, on the whole, the technology has helped her daughter navigate (航行) the world socially. “She’d be missing out on an opportunity if she wasn’t connected,” she said.

At the same time, Ms. Gray said she worries that her daughter, who is using Facebook more, is playing out her social life online sometimes without the benefits of the full emotional range that comes from face-to-face interaction.

“It’s a double-edged sword,” Ms. Gray said to social media.
