This July, Wang Chen, a student from Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, won the International University WEICHI Tournament 2013 in Shanghai, which saw competitors from 54 universities around the world, including Harvard University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Compared with the busy sports ground, it seems a bit dull, but Wang and his peers enjoy an intense brain workout(劳动). Wang is an amateur seventh-degree master player — the highest degree amateur players can attain. “I had hoped to win first place, but when it came true, I couldn’t believe it,” says Wang. Wang began studying weichi when he was 7 years old. “I was a quiet boy and my parents thought weichi would help develop my logical thinking ability,” he says. He began to attend the Chinese Rank Promotion from the age of 10. “I failed for nine years, and them I gave up. I entered university and became an amateur player,” says Wang.

What this hobby brings Wang is not only a sense of achievement, but also independence. He has won 10 national and international championships, which have brought the young student a handsome sum of money. When he won the national amateur competition in 2011, he received 100,000 yuan in prize money. With awards from contests, Wang covers his expenses and tuition fees all by himself.

Wang is busier than most of his peers. A look at his calendar shows that he will attend competitions in Guizhou and Taiwan at the end of August, after attending an international competition only this July. But Wang admits he has little in common with his classmates. “I feel a bit lonely sometimes,” he says.

On campus Wang spends more time on exploring his skills. Wang now regards playing weichi as a hobby. He is the captain of the weichi team on campus, which has five members. He organizes them to research the latest formations once a week. Wang says his next project is to promote weichi among his peers on campus. “Many young people in China don’t understand this kind of sports and I want to promote it,” says Wang.

Shuai Yunyun, 21, from Shanghai University of Engineering Science found that her friends were all occupied with their smartphones during a high school friends meeting.Or they were busy taking pictures of their meal and writing descriptions, before uploading them to their micro blogs. For a while, silence fell.

“I thought that we had a lot of topics to share, but few people were really interested in talking,” she said. “It seemed that there?s a big gap between me and those with hand-held devices (设备)” .

Shuai, an aviation management major, is not the only one feeling segregated4 from others by mobile technology.According to a latest survey of hundreds of teenagers in Hong Kong by Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong, 54.29 percent of them would use cellphones while having dinner with their families. It has affected relationships with their parents. It suggests that while technology such as cell phones, e-mails, and Internet posting has made us feel more connected than ever, they?re also driving us away from people around us.

Sherry Turkle, author of the article in The New York Times says people are now used to a new way of being “alone together.”

Actually, sending text messages or writing micro blogs allows us to exchange thoughts. But online connection cannot replace a “real conversation”.

Lan Guo, 19, a freshman English major from Changsha University, said that she would like to hear people?s voice and see their faces in a conversation. “The exchange of ideas in a conversation sharpens our minds,” she said. She also mentions that burying ourselves in mobile technology reduces our chance of starting conversations with strangers and meeting people.

However, experts remind us that it?s unfair to blame mobile technology. Chen Chen, a sociology expert points out that, it is still the mobile owners who?re avoiding personal contact.We ourselves use these devices to hide ourselves from others. Texting or calling may be an excuse to avoid contact with others, such as having eye contact. “The way to improve conversation is by understanding each other. Simply throwing away mobilephones is not a solution,” she said.

1.The best title for the passage would be “_____________”.

A. Mobilephone addiction

B. Development of mobile technology

C. An unhappy high school friends meeting

D. It is the cellphone that ends a real conversation

2.The underlined word “segregated”in Paragraph 3 means “_________”

A. prevented　　 B. separated

C. protected　　 D. injured

3.Which of the following statements is not true according to Chen Chen?

A. It is the mobile users that are to blame for the death of conversation.

B. Mobile users avoid real contact with others by sending messages or calling.

C. Only by totally forgetting mobile phones can we solve the problem.

D. We can better conversation by means of understanding each other.

4.Who thinks the exchange of thoughts in a real conversation make us cleverer?

A. Shuai Yunyun　　 B. Sherry Turkle
