How often do you use your mobile phone as a teenager When I was a teenager, I receivedmy first mobile phone at the age of thirteen. I quickly discovered the texting function (功能)and started to send texts daily to my friends.
I started to replace (替换) phone calls and in person socializing with texting. Texting madeit easier for me to communicate with my family and friends whenever possible. It was a wholenew method of communication for me. l could keep doing some other activities while sendingmessages. I was also more comfortable when I spoke my mind through these messages.
Now when l look back, I wonder iftexting changed how I socialized as a teenager. Did Ilose inperson social skills Now as ayoung adult in college,I find interpersonal communication is very important throughout my daily activities. I feel that teenagers arebecoming too comfortable with texting and not practicing in-person social skills.
In today's world, sociallyinteractive(交互的)technologies have become part of oureveryday lives, especially for teenagers. Teenagers in the US spend about 6 hours per day usingmobile phones and theyare the common heavy users in using the socially interactivetechnologies. I believe teenagers are replacing face-to-face interactions with the text messagingfunction ofmobile phones. Texting gives a safety net for teenagers to communicate with eachother. Teenagers can communicate what they want to say without the pressures (压力) of beingface-to-face to each other.
It is a very important skill for teenagers to be able to improvise. As teenagers grow andcontinue their lives as young adults, they will need to use this skill in many situations. Forexample, in a job interview, you have no time to re-think and erase (清除) what you say.Besides, in face-to- face communication, teenagers can read body language and facial expressions.

D. texting gives teenagers less pressures than face to-face communication
32. The word “improvise” in Paragraph 5 probably means
A. plan something for a long time
B. practice doing something slowly
C.repeat something for several times
D. do something without preparation
33.What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage
