I love to talk and I thrive on conversation. I like to debate, to collaborate, to combine people’ ideas with mine. All of this I do through conversation with others. Sometimes these conversations happen on Twitter, sometimes they happen over the phone, sometimes with a text, but for me, the best conversations are held in person.
A single conversation across the table with a wise person is worth a month’s study of books.— Chinese Proverb
However, when I am going out with my friends, we are always on our phones. I never get to hold deep conversations, conversations that matter, with my friends anymore. We are simply too involved with our phones. There is always a group message to reply to and someone to send a Snapchat.
By the end of 2013, there will be more mobile devices than people on the planet. Information is everywhere: photos, video, sound, and general data and it will only continue to grow. Half a billion tablets will ship by 2014.
Screens are everywhere.
Over the past month, I have begun to notice this more and now try to avoid using my phone for unnecessary communication. I have uninstalled Facebook & Twitter and changed the settings on my phone to only check my email once every hour. I have done tons to disconnect myself and it helps make me way more aware of what is really happening.
Still not seeing improvements
Conversation is the music of the mind, an intellectual orchestra, where all the instruments should bear a part, but where none should play together.— Charles Caleb Colton
An intellectual orchestra turned to a cacophony by distractions.
Now that I avoid using my phone when I am with my friends, I notice how distracted we all are. Many times I have gone with my friends to eat and they spend the majority of the time doing _something_ on their phone: usually texting or sending a picture of themselves in the restaurant (…or of their food, #yum) to twenty something friends on Snapchat.
Glad to know I, the one friend who is physically here with you, trying to have a conversation in person, matter. One of the reasons I like to go out to eat is not only the food, but to have those conversations that matter, the ones I thrive on, with people I like. I want to get to know you. I want to know how your week went. I want to know how your family has been. And, I am sure you have some questions for me too.
Instead you spend half the time interacting in conversation with me. The rest of the time you spend interacting with friends who are not even here with you.
What I especially do not like is when you never set your phone back down and I just sit there talking while you say things like uh huh.
What an amazing conversation.
Actually, I would be better off if I pushed a table against the wall, pulled up a chair, faced the wall and talked to it. At least the wall doesn’t have the blue glow of a phone on its face.
Sometimes I will try to have a conversation with someone while dining, and it starts out well. Then they get a text, they open up their phone and respond to the text. That’s okay, I understand if you have to send a quick message to someone. As long as you can continue the conversation with me where we left off, I have no problem with it.
The Petition
Put away your phones, talk to me.
People are distracted in face-to-face conversations these days. We cannot put their phone away and focus on each other. I might be selfish in requesting your undivided attention, but I know this does not only frustrate me, but others too.
My petition to the people of the world is get off your phones and give those around you in the present the attention they deserve. They are here with you; they obviously want to be with you because you matter to them. Let’s be real friends and talk to them.
You will be surprised what you can tell some one when you don’t have a 140 character limit. Until then, I will try texting my friends across the table when we go out for dinner.
That should work perfectly.

⑹ 求<关于手机是如何改变我们的生活> 英语作文!
People would rather lose wallet than cellphone 手机依赖症全球蔓延 离开手机无法生活 (摘自《英语点津》) Cellphone feels like a part of your body? A global survey has found that most people can't live without their mobiles, never leave home without them and, if given a choice, would rather lose their wallet. Calling mobile phones the "remote control" for life, market research firm Synovate's poll said cell phones are so ubiquitous that by last year more humans owned one than did not. Three-quarters of the more than 8,000 respondents polled online in 11 countries said they take their phone with them everywhere, with Russians and Singaporeans the most attached. More than a third also said they couldn't live without their phone, topped by Taiwanese and again Singaporeans, while one in four would find it harder to replace the mobile than their purse. Some two-thirds of respondents go to bed with their phones nearby and can't switch them off, even though they want to, because they're afraid they'll miss something. "Mobiles give us safety, security and instant access to information. They are the number one tool of communication for us, sometimes even surpassing face-to-face communication. They are our connections to our lives," Jenny Chang, Synovate's managing director in Taiwan, said in a statement. Mobiles have also changed the nature of relationships, with the survey finding nearly half of all respondents use text messages to flirt, a fifth set up first-dates via text and almost the same number use the same method to end a love affair. Apart from the obvious calling and texting, the top three features people use regularly on their mobile phones globally are the alarm clock, the camera and the games. As for email and Internet access, 17 percent of respondents said they checked their inboxes or surfed the Web off their phones, lead by those in the United States and Britain. One in 10 respondents log onto social networking websites such as Facebook and MySpace regularly via mobile, again led by Britain and the United States. "As the mobile becomes more and more an all-in-one device, many other businesses are facing challenging times. The opportunities for mobile manufacturers and networks however are enormous," said Synovate's global head of media, Steve Garton. Not everyone is tech savvy , however: 37 percent of respondents said they don't know how to use all the functions on their phone. 是不是觉得手机已成为身体的一部分?一项全球调查显示,大多数人觉得离开手机无法生活,从来不会不带手机出门,如果非要有所取舍,则宁愿舍弃钱包。 这项由思纬市场调查公司开展的民调称,手机已成为人们生活中的“遥控器”,它们无处不在。截至去年,手机用户的数量已超过没有手机的人数。 该公司共对来自11个国家的八千多位受访者开展了一项在线调查。调查结果显示,四分之三的受访者称自己无论去哪都会随身带手机。俄罗斯人和新加坡人对手机最为依赖。 超过三分之一的受访者称,他们离开手机无法生活,其中以台湾人和新加坡人为最甚。而四分之一的受访者则觉得手机比钱包更重要。 约三分之二的受访者睡前会把手机放在身边,而且他们即使想关机,也不会关掉,因为害怕错过电话。 思纬公司驻台湾常务董事Jenny Chang在一份声明中称:“手机给了我们安全感,让我们更安心,而且能随时接收信息。手机是我们第一大通讯工具,有时甚至超过了面对面的交谈。手机是联系我们生活的纽带。” 手机还改变了人们谈情说爱的方式。调查发现,近一半的受访者利用短信调情,五分之一的受访者通过短信安排初次约会,另有相同比例的人用同样的方法结束一段恋情。 除通话和发短信这两个主要的功能外,从全球来看,人们最常使用的其它三项手机功能是闹钟、拍照和游戏。 而至于发邮件和上网这两项功能,17%的受访者称他们利用手机查收邮件或浏览网页,这其中以美国人和英国人居多。 十分之一的受访者经常通过手机登录Facebook和Myspace等社交网站,英美人在这一项所占的比例也是最高。 思纬公司全球媒体总裁史蒂夫加顿说:“随着手机逐渐成为一种集多种功能为一体的通讯工具,很多其它行业正面临着挑战。然而这对手机制造商和网络来说却蕴含着巨大的机遇。” 但并非所有人都是科技通。37%的受访者称,他们不知道如何使用手机上的所有功能。

⑻ 求一篇英语作文:发现生活中的美
The beauty of life
shall you seek beauty, and how shall you find her unless she herself be your way and your guide?
And how shall you speak of her except she be the weaver of your speech?
The aggrieved and the injured say, "Beauty is kind and gentle. Like a young mother half-shy of her own glory she walks among us."
And the passionate say, "Nay, beauty is a thing of might and dread.
Like the tempest she shakes the earth beneath us and the sky above us."
The tired and the weary say, "beauty is of soft whisperings. She speaks in our spirit.
Her voice yields to our silences like a faint light that quivers in fear of the shadow."
But the restless say, "We have heard her shouting among the mountains,
And with her cries came the sound of hoofs, and the beating of wings and the roaring of lions."
At night the watchmen of the city say, "Beauty shall rise with the dawn from the east."
And at noontide the toilers and the wayfarers say, "we have seen her leaning over the earth from the windows of the sunset."
In winter say the snow-bound, "She shall come with the spring leaping upon the hills."
And in the summer heat the reapers say, "We have seen her dancing with the autumn leaves, and we saw a drift of snow in her hair."
All these things have you said of beauty.
Yet in truth you spoke not of her but of needs unsatisfied,
And beauty is not a need but an ecstasy.
It is not a mouth thirsting nor an empty hand stretched forth,
But rather a heart enflamed and a soul enchanted.
It is not the image you would see nor the song you would hear,
But rather an image you see though you close your eyes and a song you hear though you shut your ears.
It is not the sap within the furrowed bark, nor a wing attached to a claw,
But rather a garden forever in bloom and a flock of angels for ever in flight.
