15．　　Digital technology has made life easier for most people. With a smartphone, you can shop online, Watch TV show and catch a taxi. However, for many elderly people, such technology only makes their lives confusing (困惑的).
　　China has about 900 million Internet users. Among them, those aged 60 and above take up nearly 7 percent. That's why elderly people are sometimes called "digital refugees (数字难民)". For example, during COVID-19, people are often asked to show a green health code (健康码). "We have made a lifelong contribution to society, but now we feel abandoned by it," a 75-year-old man told the Global Times.
　　For the elderly, they mainly learn digital technology from younger family member. However, not all of these younger people have the patience to teach the elderly. In addition, aging results in many physical problems. This makes it harder to use smartphones.
　　The government and some NGOs in China are trying to help. See Young, a Beijing-based NGO, aims to help China's elderly people use mobile services. College student volunteers in the organization have been providing free computer and smartphone training for elderly people in over 200 communities across the country.
　　Now elderly people's situation has been changed completely.

18．　　What do you do with your rubbish? Throw it out?You don't know what you're missing!
　　The Santa Fe Show included more than 800 pieces of folk art from nearly 50 countries. The artists come from many different cultures. Still, they all share one thing. They take objects that are normally thrown away and make them into objects that are beautiful, useful, and fun. All the works are made from discarded (丢弃的) wood, cloth, and plastic. The artists may not think of what they do as recycling, but that's exactly what it is.
　　Fine artists might work with expensive materials. On the other hand, in poor countries rubbish might be the only material folk artists and toy makers can afford. The show shows that a rich imagination makes up for poor materials.
　　The objects in the show also call attention to recycling (回收). Reducing the amount of rubbish is an important idea in the modern world.
　　In 2005 the United States created 243 million tons of rubbish. That's about 4. 5 pounds per person per day. Back in 1980 only 15 million tons of rubbish were recycled in the United States. Compare that with 79 million tons in 2005, thanks to the growing awareness (意识) and rules made by local government. Many products today include recycled material. So next time you throw out the rubbish, keep an eye out for treasure.

19．　　Many years ago, when I was doing the dishes, my mom walked towards me and said that she was sorry that the dinner she made was awful again. I was surprised to hear this. I explained that it was great and I loved it. It was a misunderstanding. My mom thought I disliked the dinner because I just ate quietly and never said I liked it. Then she told me that I should learn to thank others if they do something nice for me. If don't, they might think I'm not thankful and stop helping me. From that day on, I often said"thank you"to people who helped me. And it soon became a habit.
　　One day, when I came home and saw two boxes of chocolate on my table. I thanked my mom. But she said they weren't from her. They were from a taxi driver this morning. Guess what? He had been driving the taxi for years, but I was the first person to ever thank him as I got off. Those two words made such a big difference that he came to my home after work specially to tell my mom about it and give me the present.
　　At that time I realized that saying "thank you" can make a difference both to our own life and to others'. So, let's learn to be politer.
