Riding a London subway, a person from China will notice one major difference: In London, commuters (乘车上下班的人) do not look at each other. That's not rudeness— people are just too busy to bother looking.
Busy doing what, you ask? Well, they're certainly not using the time for a moment of quiet reflection. Nor are they reading a book. Today the only acceptable form of book on the London Underground is an e-book.
Since the launch of the iPhone in 2007, over 40,000－yes, that's 40,000－"apps" (programs downloaded for the iPhone) have been designed.
Commuters love them because they are the perfect time－filler. One "app"，called ishoot, is a game that features tanks. Another one, Tube Exits, tells passengers where to sit on the train to be closest to the exit of their destination. Isteam clouds the iphone screen when you breathe into the microphone.
For those without an iPhone, another Apple product, the iPod, may be the distraction of choice. It's not just teenagers who "plug in" to their music－iPods are a popular way to pass the time for all ages.
And if games, e－books and music aren't enough to keep you occupied. Then perhaps you would prefer a film? The development of palm DVD technology means many commuters watch their favorite TV show or film on the way to work.
| A．With this distraction, it’s amazing that people still remember to get off the train. |
| B．New technology has replaced quiet habits. |
| C．You can then write the “steam” on your phone screen. |
| D．Technology is changing the way London commuters spend their traveling time. |
E．In fact, eye contact is avoided at all times.
F．Apple must earn a fortune from London commuters.
G．Modern Londoner are fancy victims.

Back to School: Why Grit(毅力) Is More Important than Good Grades?
The back-to-school season is upon us, and once again, parents across the country have loaded their kids’ backpacks up with snack packs and school supplies. It’s a good moment to reflect on what else we should be giving our kids as they head off to school.
American parents are feeling particularly anxious about that question this year. The educational process feels more than ever like a race, one that starts in pre-school and doesn’t end until your child is admitted to the perfect college. Most parents are more worried than they need to be about their children’s grades, test scores and IQ. And what we don’t think about enough is how to help our children build their character—how to help them develop skills like perseverance, grit, optimism, conscientiousness, and self-control, which together do more to determine success than S.A.T. scores or I.Q.
There is growing evidence that our anxiety about our children’s school performance may actually be holding them back from learning some of these valuable skills. If you’re concerned only with a child’s G.P.A., then you will likely choose to minimize the challenges the child faces in school. With real challenge comes the risk of real failure. And in a competitive academic environment, the idea of failure can be very scary, to students and parents alike.
But experiencing failure is a critical part of building character. A recent research by a team of psychologists found that adults who had experienced little or no failure growing up were actually less happy and confident than those who had experienced a few significant setbacks in childhood. “Overcoming those obstacles,” the researchers assumed, “could teach effective coping skills, help engage social support networks, create a sense of mastery over past adversity, and foster beliefs in the ability to cope successfully in the future.”
By contrast, when we protect our children from every possible failure—when we call their teachers to get an extension on a paper; when we urge them to choose only those subjects they’re good at—we are denying them those same character-building experiences. As the psychologists Madeline Levine and Dan Kindlon have written, that can lead to difficulties in adolescence and young adulthood, when overprotected young people finally confront real problems on their own and don’t know how to overcome them.
In the classroom and outside of it, American parents need to encourage children to take chances, to challenge themselves, to risk failure. In the meantime, giving our kids room to fail may be one of the best ways we can help them succeed.
