Now computers and mobile phones are more and more important in people’s life.

3

Most Americans believe there are unspoken rules about the manners of using mobile phones.

For example, in the past, checking e-mails, sending text messages and making telephone calls while having dinner with others were impolite. But now things have changed. In Western countries， people used to write a thank-you note when someone helped them. It is used to express their thanks. However, in a online poll (投票), most people said they would not be angry if they received an electronic (电子的) “thank you”. Researchers made a survey on 2,625 adults. Sixty-two per cent of them agreed that cellphones, laptops, were part of daily life.

Fifty-five per cent also thought the needs of business meant people must stay connected. If necessary, you can answer a telephone call during a meal.

People are more sensitive (敏感的) about technology use during holiday and religious (宗教的) activities. Nearly 90 per cent of Americans think cellphone use is rude during a religious activity. Besides, on one hand, 30 per cent say they will not be happy if they receive an online gift wish. On the other hand, more than half say that they would like to send an electronic greeting card, instead of a traditional one.

Every day I pass by a homeless old man on the street. He usually sat near where I go to school. Whenever I pass by, he says “hello” in a cheerful manner, and I always say it back. I give him any extra change I have.

The old man always wears an old watch. It is not an expensive watch by any means, but it serves its purpose. One day I noticed he wasn’t wearing it any more. I asked him why and he looked down and told me that the battery (电池) had died so he threw it away. I knew he couldn’t buy a new battery and he didn’t have enough money to buy a new watch.

He stayed on my mind all day, and I knew what I had to do. I went out to a shop and bought him a watch. It was not an expensive one, but that was very similar to the one he had.

When I saw him the next day, he was smiling and cheerful as ever. When I bent down to put some change in his cup, I also dropped the watch in. I didn’t say anything about it. I just smiled at him and kept on walking. He didn’t even notice it until I left. I looked back and watched as he pulled the watch from the cup. He looked at me and I just smiled and nodded.
