We’ll be crazy.” I could feel their worry, and told them that I was only having single screen-free days. But they also felt upset and worried. According to a survey we did, most students in our school spend about six hours a day on screens. There are lots of advantages of technology. However, we teachers also want to make sure that students have balanced learning and social experiences away from their screens. That’s why we have come up with the idea of screen-free days. During the project of the year, we have made several screen-free days, the teachers need to make different plans for our students, we think about how they will communicate with one another and the world around them without “screens”. For some teachers, this means making a valuable lesson plan . Fun activities, for example, card games and room escape (密室逃脱) games, are organized at school. In these activities, students became more social without smartphones and have face-to-face communication without surfing online. These fun activities also make it possible for students to enjoy the teamwork with no smartphones. After our first screen-free day, students said that they were surprised they enjoyed it. Finding ways to help our students connect with one another is important.

To make a joke, I said to the group, “What do you think if we go a week without using our laptops or smartphones?” They laughed, and one of them said, “No way, Mr. White. We’ll be crazy.” I could feel their worry, and told them that I was only having single screen-free days. But they also felt upset and worried. According to a survey we did, most students in our school spend about six hours a day on screens. There are lots of advantages of technology. However, we teachers also want to make sure that students have balanced learning and social experiences away from their screens. That’s why we have come up with the idea of screen-free days. During the project of the year, we have made several screen-free days, the teachers need to make different plans for our students, we think about how they will communicate with one another and the world around them without “screens”. For some teachers, this means making a valuable lesson plan . Fun activities, for example, card games and room escape (密室逃脱) games, are organized at school. In these activities, students became more social without smartphones and have face-to-face communication without surfing online. These fun activities also make it possible for students to enjoy the teamwork with no smartphones. After our first screen-free day, students said that they were surprised they enjoyed it. Finding ways to help our students connect with one another is important. While technology is already part of our world, it shouldn’t play such an important role in a learner’s life. 前两题完成句子；后三题简略回答问题。 1．The students still felt when the writer told them to have single screen-free days. 2．The teachers come up with the idea of screen-free days in order to make sure that students have balanced away from screens. 3．What fun activities can the students have at school? 4．How did the students feel after the first screen-free day? 5．What do you think of the idea of screen-free days?
