"That young woman who just waited on me," he said, pointing to an employee of the fast food restaurant where we were eating, " had to call someone over to help her count change. The cash register showed her I needed 9 9 cents, but she couldn't figure out how to count out the coins." I understood Mike's concer n. What we have done in this country, although unintentionally, is to create several generati ons of individuals most of whom have no idea how to reason; how to do simple math; how t o do research; or, finally, how to be creative . The reason for this is our overuse of informati on technology: video games, television, digital watches, calculators, and computers. Inform ation technology feeds us information without requiring us to think about it and let us perfo rm operations without understanding them.It is time we took a hard look at an educational system that only teaches our children ho w to push buttons. Our kids can't tell time if the clock has hands. They can use calculators, but cannot add, subtract, divide, or multiply. Video games have taken the place of active, im aginative play. Although most of them are technically literate, they choose not to read. They are so used to television and movies that they cannot use their imagination to stay intereste d in a book.It is not enough to recognize that a problem exists. What we need is a solution. The one I offer is simple to suggest, but may be impossible to carry out. We must unplug our children. If we don't, they will never learn how to solve problems. They will never learn even basi c reasoning skills and will certainly not develop creativity. Instead of filling classrooms wit h electronics, let's concentrate on good old-fashioned literacy ― reading books. Students m ust be taught not to perform computer operations by rote , but to figure and reason for them selves. They must see how things work and how processes lead to results, they must also str etch their imagination.6. What is the problem with the employee of the fast food restaurant?A. She does not know how to operate the cash register.B. She is unable to solve simple math problems.C. She lacks coins for customers.D. She does not know how to count coins.7. What is Mike's concern?A.

Be ginners usually decide to play it safe and keep their pottedplants thoroughly wet. In conseq uence, death by drowning is one of the commonest disasters to befall the plants of a new ho rticulturist. Plants wither away if they don't get enough water, and this draws attention to th eirproblem. A plant that has been slightly underwatered so that it droops strikes terror into t he heart of its new owner. But it will, in fact, recover completely as long as rescue comes in time and the process is not repeated too often. Overwatered plants, unfortunately, do not gi ve any such obvious signal; slowly they cease to thrive and the first visible indication of ser ious trouble is a yellowing of the lower leaves. Unless the overwatered pot soil is given a co nsiderable period without water, during which time the plant will continue to look wretched , it will suddenly collapse in exactly the same way as the underwatered plant―but with no chance of being revived because the roots have rotted away.11.
