The morning had been a disaster. My tooth was aching，and I’d been in an argument with a friend. Her words still hurt：“The trouble with you is that you won’t put yourself in my place. Can’t you see things from my point of view？”I shook my head stubbornly－and felt the ache in my tooth. I’d thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday，but the pain was really unbearable. I started calling the dentists in the phone book，but no one could see me immediately. Finally，at about lunchtime，I got lucky.

“If you come by right now，”the receptionist said，“the dentist will fit you in.”

I took my purse and keys and rushed to my car. But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist. What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice？Why wasn’t he as busy as the others?

In the dentist’s office，I sat down and looked around. I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried. The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice?cold one.

When I told her my fears，she laughed and said，“Don’t worry. The dentist is very good.”

“How long do I have to wait for him？”I asked impatiently.

“Come on，he is coming. Just lie down and relax. And enjoy the artwork，”the assistant said.

“The artwork？”I was puzzled.

The chair went back. Suddenly I smiled. There was a beautiful picture，right where I could enjoy it：on the ceiling. How considerate the dentist was！At that moment，I began to understand what my friend meant by her words. What a relief!

Ask a teacher to name the most annoying invention of recent years and they will often mention the mobile phone. Disturbed by the problems they create, many head teachers have ordered that pupils should keep their phones switched off at school. Others have told pupils to leave them at home.

However, education researchers at The University of Nottingham believe it is time that phone bans were reassessed, because mobile phones can be a powerful learning aid, they say. Dr Elizabeth Hartnell-Young and her colleagues have reached this conclusion after studying the consequences of allowing pupils in five secondary schools to use either their own mobile phones or the new generation of ‘smartphones’ in lessons.

During the nine-month experiment, 14- to-16-year-old pupils used the phones for a wide range of educational purposes, including creating short movies, setting homework reminders, recording a teacher reading a poem, and timing experiments with the phones’ stopwatches. The smartphones, which could be connected to the Internet, also allowed pupils to access revision websites, log into the school email system, or transfer (轉(zhuǎn)存) electronic files between school and home.

The research involved 331 pupils in schools in Cambridgeshire, West Berkshire and Nottingham. “At the start of the study, even pupils were often surprised at the thought that mobile phones could be used for learning,” Dr Hartnell-Young said. “After their hands-on experience, almost all pupils said they had enjoyed the project and felt more inspired.”

Some teachers found that pupils who lacked confidence gained most from the project. However, they recognized that greater use of mobile phones in schools could cause problems.

1.We can infer from the first paragraph that .

A. teachers are strongly against students owning mobile phones

D. were surprised that they were allowed to use mobile phones in schools

D. Pupils who were confident.

There are many people think that wealth is better than health. I used to think so until one day I had read a story about Howard Joyce. He was an European billionaire who got everything he wanted. Therefore, in the last twenty years of his life, his health began to get worse and he led a terribly life. Although the best doctors called for him, he could still find no relief. I have realized that health is worth all the money in the world. If you have million of dollars but you are at poor health, you will not be able to do what you want to do. So I would like to advise you not to hurt yourself and trying to make money. Instead, take care of your body and be happy with which you do. Health is more important.
