It was already 8：30 in the morning．Lin Tao，a 14﹣year﹣old schoolboy，still didn't show up at school．He was often later for school!The teacher called his father and got to know he played computer games online late the night before and couldn't get up that morning．In fact，he had played online games since the age of 11．He almost dropped out of school last year．
Lin Tao is not alone．Information from China Internet Center shows that the number of teenage Internet users in China had been about 170 million by the end of December，2016．Many of them，like Lin Tao，spend too much time playing computer game online．
To deal with this problem，the Chinese government worked out a draft regulation （法规草案） in January this year．According to the regulation，players need to use their own ID cards to play online games．game companies will control teenagers'online game time．They will not be able to play online games between
12：00 at night and 8：00 in the morning．If they are still playing during the time，the game companies will lock them out．
Many people think that the regulation can surely better protect Chinese young game players online，while others doubt whether it can successful stop them from playing games too much．"More and more people come to know that playing online games too much not only brings teenagers healthy and study problems，but also makes them depressed （沮丧的） and lonely，"Tong Xiaojun，a director from a university，told CCTV．We need support from the whole society to solve the problem．"

Once there were four beggars (乞丐). One day, they met at an old temple at night. They were very upset because none of them had much to eat.
“I only got this piece of meat today.” the first said. “I almost got nothing,” the second said, “I just picked up a potato outside the vegetable store during the day.” The third said that all he had was a small bottle of salt. The fourth beggar had not done much better, “I only got some old beans, but they aren’t very mice!”
As they sat around the fire, the beggar with only a bottle of salt had a great idea “Let’s put all our things together and boil them. In this way, we can make a tasty dish and share it.” They all agreed. However, the first beggar thought, “I don’t want to share. I’ll just pretend to throw my meat into the pot. They’ll never know and I’ll eat my meat alone later.” So he pretended to put the meat into the pot. And at the same time the other beggars had similar ideas to him. At that time, the temple was too dark for the beggars to see what the others were doing.
Finally, one of them suggested that the dish should be ready and, in turn, each of them helped himself to it. They drank the hot water in silence, learning that selfishness (自私) doesn’t taste all that good.

“I could tell it was him by the way he walked.” If you’ve ever said that, you understand biometrics（生物识别技术）. Biometric technology is an important topic in our work and private lives. It includes the use of finger prints or knowing a person’s voice. It is the science about what a person looks like and how a person does things. Like tree leaves, no two human beings are exactly the same. They’ve got different eyes and different hair. And everyone has a different way of walking or moving.
This technology can tell you from others. At the moment if you travel through an airport, you need your ID card or passport. If you go to your bank to get some money, you need a card and a special number. But what should you do if you lose your passport or forget your number? Biometric technology can solve this problem. The technology is becoming more and more popular with old people because they no longer need to remember their passwords（密码）.
This technology is all around us in our life. We use them to unlock a smart phone, get into our homes, start our cars without a key or even pay for our shopping.
Nothing is perfect. People are worried about the safety of their private information. However, the technology will become much better in the future, and it will become more and more important in our daily life.

Nobody wants to lose, but we must accept that losing is a part of life. After all, we can’t win all the time. However, we can learn something valuable from every failure（失败）. This may help us succeed in the future. So we must know how to be a good loser.
We must not be afraid of losing. When we lose, just take it with a smile and look on the bright side of it. Failure can’t be avoided in our life. Edison failed 10,000 times before he invented the light bulb（灯泡）. When he was asked how he felt, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times but had learned 10,000 things which didn’t work. We must know that history is full of examples of men and women who achieved success although they failed many times.
Losing is not very disgraceful. We must accept our failure and learn to take advantage of it. Remember that it can be helpful. Take action to walk out of it. When we lose, think about what we did and how we can improve. If someone else can help, we’ll be lucky enough. Maybe he or she has been through the same experience before. Many people enjoy helping others solve problems. This can save us a lot of time in learning how to avoid the same mistakes in the future.
We should face our failure when we lose. There is only one winner in every competition. Some win, while some lose. That is a usual way of life. If we offer our congratulations（祝贺）to the winners and share in their happiness, we won’t feel sorry for our failure.
In a word, being a good loser will help us to succeed in life. It might be painful at the beginning, but there are many advantages. Good losers set examples to us, and most importantly, they finally win.
