23、(2013甘肃兰州)I overslept this morning.By the time I got to the train station,the train________(leave).
24、 I received a private message on Facebook. It began harmlessly enough: Hey, girl. Wanted to invite you to join in my next project—30 minutes of exercise and healthy eating. Promise to help you “LOSE WEIGHT!”
It was all becoming too much. Facebook was running my life, not me.
But what killed Facebook for me was when I posted a photo, and five minutes later my son asked me how many “likes” it got. His question was a wake-up call.
“Likes” are signs of acceptance and approval. I had forgotten that acceptance and approval need to come from within and had unknowingly set him a bad example.
I tried to remember what life was like before Facebook. Surfing the internet was an occasional (偶尔的) activity, and I spent a lot more time reading books and magazines. I checked in with friends through texts, emails and phone calls.
To recreate the simplicity (简单) of those days and set a healthier example for my son, I closed my Facebook account.
I’d been in the habit of checking Facebook many times a day, so I had to come up with some new habits. I carried a novel and a crossword puzzle book around with me. I rediscovered playing the piano. I started taking yoga classes.
I stopped looking at the world through my cellphone. I felt completely present at the moment. The break left me feeling better about myself, my family, my home and my life.
After a few weeks, I returned to Facebook. Now I look at the photos of my friends’ kids growing up and treasure how Facebook allows me to keep in touch with family far and wide. I have a look at it every day, but no longer with the need to post ideas and photos from time to time.
It is not an addiction (瘾) any more.

A.she wanted to set her son a good example

【2】What can we know about the writer?

A.we should eat healthily and do more exercise
B.we ourselves should control our lives, not Facebook
C.we should use Facebook correctly to make good use of it
D.we shouldn't care too much about what other people think of us

Sofialoletti My cousin Gina, who is fourteen years old, got first prize in the “Young Cook of the Year” competition. Hundreds of teenage cooks across Italy took part in that competition, and Gina won! She learnt to cook by watching her father, who’s also a great cook. Now, Gina’s writing her own book for kids. Gina wants her book to be fun to read, but easy enough for children to use. She wants to encourage other children to cook because, as she says, “Everyone needs to eat, so it’s a skill that will always be useful!” Gina’s food is really amazing, which makes her an amazing kid! #amazingkidscompetition View 12 comments | Cool runner 871 My brother, Brendan, has always loved running.

26、 Have you ever got your lunch, but not known where to sit? You don't want to sit alone. But you are not sure who would be friendly and let you sit with them.
To solve the problem, Natalie Hampton, 16, made an app called Sit With Us. It makes finding friends in the school canteen(食堂) very easy. Natalie is from Sherman Oaks, California, US.
The free app went online on Sep.9. Students can sign up as “ambassadors”(大使) for a club. Then they can post “open lunch” events to invite others to join in.
Natalie got the idea to create the app after she ate alone her whole seventh grade year. The experience made her feel sad and she was even bullied(欺负). She changed schools because of that.
People may want to know why you don't just ask to sit down. Natalie said the app stops kids from being rejected in front of others. “This way it's very private. It's through the phone. No one else has to know. And you know that you're not going to the table.” she told NPR.
So far, the app works well. “I had my first club meeting, and everyone was very excited. People are already posting open lunches at my schools. So I'm very excited.” Natalie told NPR.
