【正文】 a sees it: “There are people you’ll text, but won’t call. It’s just a way to stay in touch with each other.” Some believe that scores of texts each day keep people more connected. “ The problem is that conversation is not very deep,” says Joseph Grenny, co author of the book Cultural Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes Are High. “The problem has been there since we’ve had telephones — probably since the time of a telegraph,” Grenny says. Texting is just the latest way to do that. Though they may not always be so good at deep conversations themselves, Grenny suggests that parents model the behavior for their children and put down their own cell phones. He says that they also should set limits, as Anna’s mom did when she made the “no texting to people in the same house” rule. 28. According to Paragraph 1, Joanna .

D Walking in daffodils (水仙花 ) on her farm in Camden, US, Roxane Daniel greets different kinds of the flower by name as if they’ re dear friends. “ That’ s Professor Einstein,” says Daniel, 72, as she reaches down to pick an orange daffodil. “ There are Golden Dawn and Early Cheer, and over there is Fortune, one of my favorites.” Each spring Daniel’ s fields are covered with 3 million daffodils, which include more than a thousand kinds. “ I am a painter and live on a hill and always thought how wonderful it would be to look out and see a lot of colors,” says Daniel, who began planting daffodils on her farm during the 1960s. Daniel always weles visitors who pose against the beautiful flowers for their photos. Nieen years ago, when money was needed to repair the railroad station in Camden, Daniel got an idea. The idea has developed into the Camden Daffodil Festival anized by the town. It attracts several thousand visitors each March and keeps the town lively all year around. “ The station needed repairing, and I had given all the money we could afford to give,” says Daniel. “ It was March, and our daffodils were in blossom. My friend and I were standing in my front yard and I said, ‘ If this was for charity, do you think that people would pay to see these flowers?’ ” Daniel painted a poster, which volunteers displayed at local churches and businesses, inviting flower lovers to her farm. Each spring, more and more people attend the festival, along with the daffodils and attractions. Visitors get on buses to tour several flower gardens and historic homes. Other festival attractions include an art show and storytelling. Money from the Daffodil Festival is used to support projects of the Historical Society, and downtown wall paintings, benches and flower boxes. “ Because of Roxane’ s idea and her interest in her munity, the festival has an important part to play here,” says Sammie Briery, 68, who has 1, 400 daffodils in her own front yard. “ The whole town has been caught up in the fun and excitement of having so many visitors.” 32.
