21、   I’m Helen Blevins. I’m very lucky because I make money by doing what I love-painting pictures.

I painted my first picture when I was just four. One day, when Mom was cooking. I painted a picture on one blue wall of my bedroom. I painted myself and my dog on the grass, with red flowers around. I painted the sun above us, with a big smile on its face.

I was still painting when Mom walked into my room. Her mouth was open and she stood there quietly, looking at the wall. “I’m in big trouble,” I thought. So I was really surprised when Mom said, “What a beautiful picture, Helen!” The picture stayed on my bedroom wall and is still there today, 30 years later. I see it every time I go home to visit Mom.

I tell this story because it shows how much Mom supported（支持）my love of painting. When I was at school, she cared about my art as much as other subjects. She kept all my paintings and hung many of them on the walls of our house. She often said, “You are so talented. Follow your dream.”

Today I’m a successful painter. I’m happy that people love my paintings and hang them in their homes. I will never forget Mom’s great support!

22、Microsoft founder Bill Gates has talked about how to be a good parent, saying that 13 is a right age for a child’s first mobile phone. The 57-year-old father of three said on the Today Show that his children Jennifer and Rory were not allowed(允许) phones until their thirteen birthday and his youngest daughter Phoebe is still waiting for one.

“We’ve made a rule in our family that it’s 13 when you get a phone.” He also said as a result his child often returned home from school complaining, “All the other kids have it. I’m the only one without it. It’s so embarrassing(困窘).”       

Asked of the keeps passwords(密码) to his son and daughters’ email and Facebook accounts(账号), Mr. Gates said that he doesn’t for Jennifer, 16, who he says is “old enough”.

Besides their wealth(除财富外) Mr. and Mrs. Gates, who live in Lake Medina, have said they want to raise their three children as usually as possible. It is said that their kids have to do housework at home after school and aren’t given much pocket money.

And in 2010 Mr. Gates said that he wanted to give most of his ＄61 billion(十亿) away rather than hand it down. “That wouldn’t be good either for my kids or society,” he said.

Mr. Gates left Microsoft in 2008 to put his heart to charity. During the Today Show interview with host Matt Lauer, he said that helping others made him feel happy as creating software(软件).

23、It might be fun to use your smartphone, but be careful. Too much screen time may be harmful to your health.

First, it is bad for your eyes. A researcher called Sarah Hinkley says the problem comes from the blue light that the screen gives out. Looking at a smartphone for a long time can cause eye strain(劳损), headaches and dry eyes. So it is a good idea to take a break every 15 minutes when you are working at a computer or using a smartphone.

Second, screen use can do harm to children’s brains. A new study shows that using screens too much can affect(影响) how children’s brains grow. If children use screens for more than one hour a day, they might have lower levels of white matter in their brains. White matter is a key to the development of language and reading skills. So it is wise to cut down the time of children using all kinds of screens.

Third, using screens too much will affect your sleep. According to a study, about 95% of the people between the ages of 13 and 64 use electronics before bed, especially the young people under 20. Doctors say that the light from those electronics at night may make you excited before you go to bed. Then it’s hard for you to get enough sleep. So you’d better turn off smartphones, TVs, and all other screens an hour before your bedtime.

To keep healthy, doctors and researchers strongly advise that you shouldn’t use screens for long hours.

A．eye strain

B．have lower levels of white matter
