Culturally, it went from ease to 1 . In the 1990s, American Online would excitedly announce, “You’ve got mail!” Today, Gmail celebrates the 2 : “No new mail!” So what happened to email? What happened to us? These questions 3 in the new technology TV program Codebreaker, which focuses on the question “Is email evil?” “Email is free, and anybody can send to anybody, as many as we want.” Codebreaker’s host. B Johnson said. 4 , that makes email great, but most emails are “total garbage,” Johnson said, “and they shouldn’t even go to your inbox.” Yet this virtual garbage is not the real problem. 5 , people get tired of their inboxes. Although email may work technologically, it brings about some 6 effects. Email hurts productivity and makes people feel bad. On average, people 7 their email about 77 times every day, according to Gloria Mark, a professor at the University of California. “The more email people deal with, the 8 is their productivity and their positive mood at the end of the day.” Maybe we have to rethink email and even 9 the way email is used. Gloria Mark is not 10 in that judgment. Already, there are other 11 to the inbox-outbox cycle. Various private messengers and chat platforms have been taken as email killers, or at least taking away its 12 on people. “Email is not evil,” said SabriBen-Achour, a reporter in the Codebreaker. “We are evil. Email breaks the barriers that we have chosen to 13 our evil selves.” 14 email is not completely evil, it does seem to be broken in some way.

I’d watch endless videos of destinations and read scores of 1 online. But more often than not, 2 fell far short of what was promised. The colourful images I’d come across online would turn out to be totally disappointing in real life. So, a year ago, I made a change. I banned myself from too much 3 for a trip. Instead, I chose an area I wanted to 4 . I couldn’t rely on my phone. It wasn’t easy at first. I felt rudderless (漫无目的的) without my phone to guide me while wandering through 5 neighbourhoods. I was so accustomed to 6 every detail about each place I visited and without that, I was exposed. But that’s exactly why it’s so fun. Going in unprepared opens you up to 7 . Without being glued to directions on my phone, I was 8 so much more of my surroundings, noticing details that would otherwise have 9 passed me by. Travelling without planning has made me more 10 with making decisions. I no longer 11 if the view isn’t as breathtaking as in the photos — because I’m not comparing my 12 to anyone else’s. Trying to have the 13 holiday is no longer the point for me; it’s about living in the present and making good 14 .

Let’s 4 the clock back to over sixty years ago, when she visited the 5 for the first time as an undergraduate. She never expected this field study would change her whole life. For Fan who grew up in Shanghai, a moment of excitement 6 in staying here. With salty water, oil lamps and earthen beds, life was extremely 7 . To everyone’s 8 , she insisted on staying owing to the artistic treasures inside the caves and her dream of studying national cultural heritage. When the caves opened to the public in 1979, the murals and artifacts began to decay (衰变), were damaged or even 9 . Faced with the 10 between the preservation and tourism, Fan knew that a compromise had to be found. In the late 1980s, Fan came up with a 11 idea that they could 12 the life of the Mogao Grottoes by limiting the number of people entering the caves, which was definitely shocking back then. And then came Digital Dunhuang in 2016, enabling the tourists to enjoy the 13 images online, for the purpose of 14 preserving the murals and historical data. Now 85-year-old Fan is as busy as ever, devoted herself to protecting the Mogao Grottos.
