I was a smartphone addict. My eyes (glue)to the little screen whenever I walked down the street, had dinner with friends lay in bed at night. The first thing I did when I woke up in the morning was reach for my phone. I always asked for Wi-Fi connections when I went to a new restaurant or coffee shop. A dead battery in my smartphone would make me feel (stress). Sometimes I had the uncomfortable feeling
this little machine had taken up too much of my time, and that I could have done something (mean)than just looking at a tiny screen all day. (slide)into the habit was easy, but it was difficult (quit)the habit.

Then the day came I finally realized I had to make a change. Head down, eyes on my smartphone, I stepped into the road and a car
(shoot)past, nearly knocking me off my feet! At that very moment, I made up my mind (spend)a whole week without my smartphone.

The first day was the hardest. I was used (check)the news and my friends’ social media updates every few minutes, but now I did not know what to do with myself. I kept reaching for my pocket, for my smartphone that was not there. I felt (lose)and anxious, as if I had missed something of value. Very soon, time slowed down. The empty hours stretched out in front of me, and I felt disconnected from everyone and everything.

It was (scare)at first. Then somehow I began to feel free. The things that I had time for! I finally picked up the classic novel I had always wanted to read and (lose)in the beautiful language. I kept a journal of my feelings, thoughts and daily activities (see)how much progress I was making. I went out for a run and felt (alive)than I had in days. The details of the scene were revealed in front of me: the soft sunlight, a bird (sing)from a high tree branch, the rich and earthy smell of the soil after the rain. Best of all, I began (appreciate)the beauty in life with my own eyes, instead through my smartphone camera.

My offline relationships benefited as well. I went for a long walk with an old friend. Our wide-ranging conversation went so much deeper than brief texts ever could. With eyes no longer (fix)on our phones, we had a chance to really enjoy each other’s company. I also made sure to spend more time with my parents. We went to the opera, played badminton, visited museums. One night, my mother took out some family photos and we laughed about old times. I brought them up to date with what was going on in my life. We had never felt closer to each other.

By the end of the week, I almost did not want to turn my phone back on. Those seven days have given me a great (appreciate)for life beyond the screen. Real life— and real relationships—are more important to me now. I cannot escape from the modern world, but I can cut back the amount of time I spend on my smartphone every day, and I do. Life beyond smartphones is (rich)and more beautiful, and I am going to take advantage of it.
