When asked by Conan O’Brien if his daughters had smartphones, comedian Louis CK explained that he had ________replied, “No, you can’t have it. It's bad for you. I don’t ________ what you want.” This hit home for me because at the time, I was in difficult negotiations with my ten-year-old daughter ________ one. And frankly, she was winning. CK added, “I’m not raising the ________ --- I’m raising the grown-ups that they’re going to be. So just ________ the other stupid kids have phones doesn’t mean that my kid has to be stupid, or ________ she’ll feel weird.” OK, I was sold.
Cell phones are “toxic, especially for kids,” he said, because they don’t help them learn empathy, one of the nicer human ________ . When we text, the ________ we get is in cold, hard text-speak. Why are kids ________? he asked. “Because they’re trying it out. They look at another kid and go. ‘You’re fat.’ Then they find the kid’s unhappy, and they think, Ooh, that doesn’t feel ________.” There, they’ve experienced empathy. Texting “you’re fat” allows you to bypass the pain you’ve caused.
CK went on to explain to us that smartphones rob us of our ability to be ________. Kids use smartphones to ________y!!! After all, one of the joys of being human is allowing our minds to ________ . With cell phones, kids are always preoccupied. They never daydream, ________ in class. And here’s something else we’re ________ out on thanks to Steve Jobs’s little device: our right to be ________ . This was a right I hadn’t realized I desired until CK pointed out that it’s yet another of the essential human emotions.
“Everybody’s murdering each other with their cars” as they text, CK screamed, because they fear being alone. Too bad —they’re missing out on a life affirming experience.
“I was in my car one time, and Bruce Springsteen’s ‘Jungleland’ came on,” he said. “And he sounds so far away. It made me really sad. And I think, OK, I’ve got to get the phone and write hi to 50 people. I was ________ for the phone, and I thought, Don’t! Just be sad.” So CK ________ over and allowed himself to sob like a little girl ________ that brand-new four-poster bed for her American Girl doll. “It was beautiful. You’re lucky to ________ sad moments,” he said. And because he didn’t fight and push it away with that little phone, because he allowed himself to be miserable, his body released endorphins(内啡肽). “And that’s why I don’t want to get phones for my kids.” CK said. And I suppose I don’t either.

When I was a senior in high school, I knew I wanted to pursue writing as a career.
Writing had basically me when I was only 7 years old, since that time, I’d been bombarded by guidance counselors and career planners who all me to have “a back-up plan” in case writing didn’t work out.
I’d never even a different career path, so I was very and worried. After much thought, I decided would be my “back-up plan,” and I signed up for a class through my high school.
