25、   What are the hottest English words these years? “Selfie” may be one of them. It was even named Word of the Year by Oxford Dictionaries(牛津词典) in 2013. The word was first used in an Australian online forum(论坛) in2002. Now, almost everybody knows it.

Selfie is a photo that one takes of oneself. People usually take selfies with a smart phone and send them to a social media website. Nowadays, more and more people are taking selfies. From your best friend to your favorite pop star, selfies are taking over Renren and Sina Weibo.

Through these photos, we got to know each other’s holidays and feelings,” said Wang Lin, 15, from Henan. “I’m too shy to ask someone to take pictures of me, but it’s easier to do it by myself.”

Although taking selfies is popular among young people around the world, they should be careful at the places where they take selfies.

27、Many volunteers have helped senior citizens (老年人) learn to use smart phones. But for all their goodwill, ________. It takes much time and effort, and more importantly, older people can easily forget what they’ve learned and the volunteers have to do the same job time and time again.

Liu Siyuan from Beijing 101 Middle School noticed the problems and tried to solve them with a guidebook.

The 16-year-old founded a volunteer group called Silver Hair. Its seven members spent around half a year writing a 300-page book called May I Show You How to Use Smart Phones.

The group members made a survey of more than 1,000 senior citizens and talked with many in nursing homes and found out what the older people care most about with smart phones. “How to use WeChat” topped the list as the app covers many parts of life such as chatting, money transfers (转账) and health code checking. These make up one part of the book. The other nine parts include the basic functions of phones, online shopping, using online maps and more. To make the book more friendly to older readers, Liu also made the pages pale yellow and the characters big.

“Many senior citizens are resistant to smart phones at first, but they are familiar with books, which can make them more willing to learn.” said Liu. “And besides, they can look in the book any time they need, just like using a dictionary.”

The Silver Hair members have printed out 500 copies at their own expense and handed them all out. They soon start working on the second edition (版本) which includes more guidance such as hospital registration(挂号) and photo editing (编辑). They also hope for money support from the public so that they can print more copies and help more people.

28、   “Problems and worries are normal (正常) in life.”says Lucy. “But I think talking to someone helps a lot. If we don’t talk to someone, we’ll certainly feel【1】.”

Lucy once lost her 【2】, and worried for days. She was afraid to tell her parents about it. She even walked three miles to school each day because she didn’t have any money. She just kept 【3】of the problem again and again in her mind. “If I tell my parents, they will be angry!” But in the end, she talked to her parents and they were really 【4】. Her dad said that he【5】made careless mistakes himself. They got her a new wallet and asked her to be more careful. “I will always remember to 【6】my problems in the future!” Lucy says.

Robert Hunt advises students about common 【7】. He feels the same way as Lucy. “It is best not to avoid our problems. We should always try to solve them.” He thinks that you can first find someone to talk to. This person doesn’t need to be an expert (专家) like himself. Students often forget that their parents have more【8】than them, and are always there to 【9】them.

In English, we say that sharing a problem is like cutting it in half. So you’re halfway to solving a problem if you talk to【10】about it.
