When Kyle walked into Ernie's Pet World, he looked very worried. He walked quickly to the front counter(柜台). The owner of the shop, Ernie, jumped out to greet Kyle. He was the shop's first shopper of the day.
"Good morning, sir!" Ernie said. "What can I help you with?"
"Well, I...," Kyle started to say.
"Wait, don't tell me," Ernie interrupted (打断) him. "You're looking for a … a little dog... for your daughter's birthday. Right?"
"No T really, l just..."
Ernie didn't let him finish. "Ah, I've got it, You just moved into a new house, and you want some fish for it. I have some very nice tanks over here."
"In fact, I..." Kyle was starting to look very nervous (紧张的). His face had a strange expression(表情)on it.
"No fish? Ah, a cat! You look like a cat person. At Ernie's Pet World, we have the best kinds. Take a look at this Persian — long, white hair, and look at that cute expression. She's looking at you. She's thinking, ‘Take me home. Take me home.' Would you like some cat food and toys as well?"
"No, thank you," Kyle said. By this time, he was walking up and down. He had a pained (痛苦的) look on his face. "Really, I'm not interested in cats or fish or little dogs."

It's Friday evening. My daughters sighed (叹息) when I gently took the iPads away from their laps. One by one, our screens were turned off. We lit the candles and sat down to have a big meal.

We call it our "Technology Shabbat" (科技安息日), which lasts from sunset on Friday to sunset on Saturday.

I first understood the importance of "Technology Shabbat" in 2008, when my father had got brain cancer. Some days he would have only one awake hour, and the only thing I wanted to do was to be with him. When I looked after my father, I turned off my mobile phone.

During our "Technology Shabbat", time slows down. Our Saturdays now feel like mini-vacations. We drive cars or ride bikes. We work in the garden, play board games and cook meals with our kids. I feel like a better mother, wife and person.

Keeping a balance between the good and the bad of technology is important for my family. The technology helps us share knowledge and funny ideas all over the world. But the technology also takes something away from us. When we stay up late at night linking (连接) from website to website or sending messages, we click again and again until we have been overloaded (超负荷的).

Now we're rushing into the time full of high technology. We should pay attention to what we are doing online and when we should go offline.

I will always remember the most important thing in my family: Technology Shabbat.

Old wives' tales are pieces of advice that are supposed to solve common problems such as the medical ones or some problems at home. They are usually passed down through talking,and there are only a few having been written down. Some of them sound ridiculous and have no scientific meaning at all,just like jokes,while others are more reasonable,which are realized to be true. 

Often,old wives' tales take the form of warnings and are a way to prevent poor behavior in children. For example, "Eating candy before bedtime brings you bad dreams" is a common old wives' tale that was probably thought up to stop children from eating too many unhealthy snacks. Similarly, "If you've been lying,your nose will be longer" is a trick trying to get naughty children to tell the truth. 

Other old wives' tales want to give advice about how to keep away from illnesses. "If you go outside with wet hair,you'll catch a cold" is an old wives' tale that's still commonly heard today. However,colds are not caused by cold weather or wet hair. Instead,they are caused by viruses (病毒). 

"Feed a cold,starve a fever" means that you should eat plenty of food when you have a cold,but not eat when you have a fever. This piece probably comes from the fact that people with a fever usually lose their appetite (胃口) anyway. Medical science has found that the body stops eating much when you have a fever because little food makes your immune system (免疫系统) fight bacterial infections (细菌感染),while eating a little more makes your immune system fight against viruses,like colds. 

There are hundreds of old wives' tales. Although there may be truth in a few of them,if you bear one,it's best not to take it too seriously.

Danald Stawd, a nice vet(兽医) in San Diego, had experienced defeat in his job. The animal 1 where he worked was crowded with abandoned(被遗弃的) pets,2 owners were struggling to fight with their income going down. So they had no3 to take care of these tiny creatures. In those days, animals 4 be euthanized(安乐死) if nobody wanted them in 7 days. This situation troubled Stawd, even leading him to consider 5 his job.

10 he began working as a street vet during his spare time, determined to 11 on his own. Over a nine-year period, he provided 12 medical care for over 1, 000 homeless people and their pets.
