The central claim is that technology make us 44 what we already know about life, and it 45 us developing fully independent selves. And the quality of human relationships is said to have 46. Parents are distracted by work emails at the dinner table and in the playground; children cry for 47 until they finally get an iPad for Christmas. Gatherings of old friends can’t do a couple of hours 48 checking their Gmail every 10 minutes. Technology sucks the life out of us, and takes our souls in 49 for the convenience of not having to learn how to read maps properly.

Second-Hand Finds It’s hard to know what is worth buying at a garage sale. These can be of great value. LARGE FURNITURE The key to buying big items is to wait until the end of the day. By then, the sellers are wondering how they are going to get that huge sofa back into the house.

BABY GEAR BICYCLES AND SCOOTERS Bikes can be a great find, but it’s important to take them for a test drive before you buy.

Fun is hard 10 have. Fun is a rare jewel.
Somewhere along the line people got the modem idea that fur was there for the asking, that people deserved fun, that if we didn’t have a little fun every day, we would turn into puritans (清教徒)，
“Was it fun?” became the question that overshadowed all other questions. When the pleasure got to be the main thing, the fun fetish (迷恋) was sure to follow. Everything was supposed to be fun. If it wasn’t fun, then we were going to make it fun, or else.
Think of all the things that got the reputation of being fun. Family outings were supposed to be fun. Education was supposed to be fun. Work was supposed to be fun. Walt Disney, church and staying fit were supposed to be fun.
Fun got to be such a big thing that everybody started to look for more and more thrilling ways to supply it. One way was to step up the level of danger So that you could be sure that, no matter what, you would manage to have a little fun.
Big occasions were supposed to be fun, such as Christmas, Thanksgiving and Easter. But we ended up going through every Big Event we ever celebrated, waiting for the fun to start. So I should tell you just in case you’re worried about your fun capacity while you are sitting around waiting for the fun to start, that not much is. I don’t mean to put a damper on things. I just mean we ought to treat fun reverently. It is a mystery. It cannot be caught like a virus. It cannot be trapped like an animal. When fun comes in on little dancing feet, we probably won’t be expecting it. In fact, I bet it comes when we’re doing our duty, our job.
I remember one day, long ago, on which I had an especially good time. Pam Davis and I, aged 12, walked into a store that morning to buy some candy. She got her Bit-O-Honey. I got my malted milk balls, chocolate stars. Then we started back to her house. It was a long way to Pam’s house but every time we got weary, Pam would put her hand over her eyes, scan the horizon like a sailor and say, “We ought to reach

home by nightfall,” at which point the two of us would laugh until we thought we couldn’t stand it another minute. Then after we got calm, she’d say it again. You should have been there. It was the kind of day and friendship and occasion that made me deeply regretful that I had to grow up.
It is fun.

An eclipse happens when one heavenly body such as a moon or planet passes into the shadow of another heavenly body. There are two types of eclipses on Earth: lunar eclipses and solar eclipses.
The moon orbits Earth and, at the same time, Earth orbits the sun. Sometimes Earth moves between the sun and the moon. When this happens, Earth blocks the light from the sun. This is an eclipse of the moon—a lunar eclipse. A lunar eclipse can occur only when the moon is full and can be seen from Earth at night.
There are two types of lunar eclipses: total lunar eclipses and partial lunar eclipses.
