What would life be like without television? Would you spend more time  36  , reading, or studying? Well, now it’s your chance to turn off your TV and  37  ! TV-Turnoff Week is here.
The goal of TV-Turnoff Week is to let people leave their TV sets  38   and participate in activities  39   drawing to biking. The event was founded by TV-Turnoff Network, a non-profit organization which started the event in 1995. In the  40  , only a few thousand people took part. Last year more than 7.6 million people participated,  41   people in every state in America and in more than 12 other countries! This is the 11th year in which  42   are asking people to “turn off the TV and turn on  43  .”
According to the TV-Turnoff Network, the average  44  in the US spend  45   time in front of the TV (about 1,023 hours per year) than they do in school (about 900 hours per year). Too much TV  46   has made many kids grow fat.  47  , in 2001’s TV-Turnoff Week, US Surgeon General David Satcher said, “We are raising the most  48   generation of youngsters in American history. This week is about saving lives.”
Over the years, studies have shown that watching a lot of TV  49   poor eating habits, too little exercise, and violence. Frank Vespe of the TV-Turnoff Network said that turning off the TV “is or  50  , part of a healthy lifestyle”.
“One of the great lessons of  51   TV-Turnoff Week is the realization that  52   I turn on the TV, I’m deciding not to do something else,” Vespe said.
TV-Turnoff Week seems to be making a  53   . Recent US Census(人口普查)data  54   that about 72 percent of kids under 12 have a limit on their TV time. That’s  55   about 63 percent ten years ago.

"Beginning Anew" is a(n) 1of reconciliation. It involves three steps —— sharing appreciation, expressing 2, and expressing hurt and difficulties.
In the first step, we share appreciation. We acknowledge the 3qualities of the other person. The second step——expressing regret, is to 4with the other person our regrets for the things we have done or said that might have caused him or her 5. This requires humility (谦逊), and the 6to let go of our own pride. In the third step, we express our own hurt with mindful and loving 7without blaming or criticizing. We speak in such a way that the other person can listen and 8our words. If we blame the other person, his heart will 9and he will not be able to hear us. We ask the other person to help us to understand why he has spoken and acted as he has, causing us so much pain. Perhaps, later, he can share his feelings so that we can understand him more deeply. If a strong 10arises in us while we are expressing our suffering, we should simply 11and come back to our breathing until the emotion becomes 12 .

I always long for romantic moments, like a little girl longing for candies.However, my husband is my complete 36 . His inability to bring romantic moments into our life has made me get tired of our 37 . One day, I finally told him that I wanted a divorce.
“Why?” he asked, 38 .
“I am tired; there are no 39 for everything in the world!” I answered.
He kept 40 , seeming to be in deep thought, with a lighted cigarette in his hands. Finally he asked, “What can I do to change your 41 ?”
Looking deep into his eyes I slowly answered, “Let’s say, I want a flower on a mountain cliff and picking the flower will cause your 42 . Will you do it for me?”
He answered, “I will give you my answer tomorrow.”
I 43 the next morning, finding a piece of paper on the dining table, which read: “My dear, I would not pick that flower for you, but please allow me to 44 .
My feeling of disappointment only 45 , but I continued reading:
“You always leave the 46 keys behind, so I have to save my legs to 47 home to open the door for you. You always like to stay indoors and I 48 that you will feel too lonely, so I have to save my mouth to tell you jokes and stories. You always stare 49 the computer and that will do nothing 50 for your eyes, so I have to save my eyes so that when we grow 51 , I can help to clip your nails. Thus, my dear, 52 I am sure that there is someone who loves you more than I do, I could not pick that flower yet, and die.”
My tears fell on the 53 and I continued reading:
“Now that you have finished reading my answer, if you are 54 , please open the front door for I am standing outside 55 your favorite bread and fresh milk.”

The Girl with the Cut - out Face
When I was a child, I often looked through a family album. I remember asking my mother why there was a 36 cut out of a photo of a little girl. But it was 37 that my mother did not want to talk about it.
38 I looked at the album I saw that cut - out face and 39 about it. I figured there was something 40 . When I was grown up and had almost 41 about the photo, my mother must have realized I should know her 42 . She sat me down one day and said, “That cat - up photo is 43 your Aunt Anna. She has schizophrenia(精神分裂症).”
But why did my mother never 44 this before? I still didn’t understand. “Because people are… were…45 of having mental illness in the family” was the 46 . But I wanted to meet Aunt Anna, and I 47 .
My mother and I traveled to the house 48 Anna lived with an Italian family. Anna looked like a question mark on legs, 49 she had lovely, clear eyes and a gentle manner. I could see the 50 to my mother. “So nice to meet you,” she said to me. “Do you have a trunk (象鼻;行李箱)?”
Did she think that I was an elephant? No, she wanted to run 51 and hide in the trunk of my car. The family that 52 her said that she always wanted to 53 .
The last time I saw Anna she was placed in a smaller old - age facility in Brooklyn.
54 Aunt Anna, I’m not the least bit ashamed of you. I’m 55 about you now for many to see, with your sweet young face showing under a pretty bow.
And you finally found that escape you were seeking.

Mom had one rule: “Never ice-skate alone.” But I couldn’t 36 any longer that afternoon. So I 37 my skates under my coat and ran to the pond. Several people were skating near the shore, and some kids were playing hockey.I was not really 38
The hockey game had attracted 39 audience, so I skated in the other direction until their cheering 40 . But another noise came soon. The ice was cracking beneath me. Freezing water 41 my body, and I sank like a rock. My feet 42 the bottom. Just when I thought I wouldn’t last another43 , I felt a tap on my shoulder. “Don’t worry,” someone said. I swung my44 around. I couldn’t see anybody. But I heard the voice again,“Push your feet into the bottom and you’ll shoot straight up to the surface.” I did as I was told and 45 . I crawled to the shore and lay down, 46 .The next thing I knew was people were 47 around me, covering me with coats.
When I awoke, I was home in my own bed. Mom sat next to me, 48 my hand. “I saw nobody there. It must be an angel that came to my 49 .” I said. Mom smiled, “I just thank God you’re safe.”
For a long time I thought I would 50 a more realistic explanation if I just thought hard, but I never did.
