数字冲击
我在中国已经学习了一年，现在是圣诞假期。我回到英国已经三天了，但感觉像是过了一个世纪！看到我的家人很惊奇。我也爱圣诞节和品尝美味的食物。不过，我在这里遇到了一些数字问题。
今天，我想去一家商店买些蔬菜和肉。我决定骑共享单车去那里。但找到一辆自行车花了很长时间，最终找到一辆破旧的。但那趟20分钟的骑行花了我一大笔钱—4.8英镑！
在商店，我迅速拿了我需要的所有东西。我想用智能手机付款，让店主出示二维码，但她不明白。接着，我试着用数字钱包，但商店支付系统坏了。店主告诉我要用现金。因为在中国我总是使用无现金支付方式，所以我从来不带钱包。我只好回家去取现金。
回到家后，我太累了以至于我放弃做饭了。我通过一款应用程序点了我最喜欢的菜，但配送速度真的很慢。当我点的菜最终在90分钟后送到，它们都凉透了！我只好把它们一份份放进烤箱加热。我感到又累又饿。
除了今天的这些状况，我度过了一个很棒的假期。然而，我很期待回到中国。那里的技术让我过上了更便捷的生活！

他们曾有的乐趣
在2157年5月17日的日记中，玛吉写道：“今天，汤米发现了一本真正的书！”
那是一本非常古老的书。他们翻动着那些泛黄的旧书页。读上面的文字感觉很奇怪，因为这些文字是静止在书页上的，而不是在屏幕上滚动。
汤米说：“多浪费啊！我猜，当你读完这本书，你只能把它扔掉了。我们的电视屏幕上肯定有上百万本书呢！我才不会把它扔掉。”
玛吉问：“这本书是关于什么的？”
“学校。”
“为什么会有人写关于学校的内容呢？”
“因为这是一种数百年前的古老学校。他们有一个老师，但是一个人。还有一座特别的的建筑，所有的孩子和老师都会去那里。”
玛吉想读关于那些有趣学校的内容，但她妈妈喊道：“玛吉！上学了！”
玛吉的教室就在她卧室旁边。她的老师是一台机器。机器开着，正等着她。屏幕亮了，机器说：“今天的课是数学。请把昨天的作业放到开头处。”
玛吉难过地照做了。她在想那些古老的学校。街区里所有的孩子都会来到操场上，又笑又闹。他们一起坐在教室里，放学后一起回家。
而且老师都是人...
玛吉在想，过去的学生一定很喜欢上学。她在想他们曾有的乐趣。
（改编自艾萨克·阿西莫夫的《他们那时候多有趣啊》）
