The Role of Mobile Phone in People's Communication
The popularity of smartphones has exerted great influence on the way people communicate, so much so that an increasing number of individuals contend that face-to-face communication is being replaced by texts and images on the mobile phone.
There are more than one angle to consider this phenomenon. On one hand, it is pleasantly acknowledged that smartphones shorten the distance between families and friends. Even people from different sides of the globe can share pictures, feelings and thoughts through various types of apps on the phone, thus building a long-distance connection. On the other hand, as the picture warns us, too much smartphone addiction interferes with people's real-life communication. Statistics show that over 70 percent of face-to-face communication consists of facial expressions and body language, which is why people should stay away from mobile phones when they have the chance to actually talk and communicate with others.
In a word, mobile phones act as an appropriate platform where people can always stay in tough however long the distance is, but a wise man should know when to put down his phone.

??寓言小故事：The Wolf and the LambaWolf, meeting with a Lamb astray from the fold, resolved not to lay violent hands on him, but to find some plea, which should justify to the Lamb himself his right to eat him. He thus addressed him:"Sirrah, last year you grossly insulted me." "Indeed," bleated the Lamb in a mournful tone of voice, "I was not then born." Then said the Wolf, "You feed in my pasture."
"No, good sir," replied the Lamb, "I have not yet tasted grass." Again said the Wolf, "You drink of my well." "No," exclaimed the Lamb, "I never yet drank water, for as yet my mother′s milk is both food and drink to me." On which the Wolf seized him, and ate him up, saying, "Well! I won′t remain supperless, even though you refute every one of my imputations."The tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny.
狼和小羊
一只狼瞧见一只迷路失群的小羊，决定暂缓下毒手，想先找一些理由，对小羊证明自己有吃它的权利。它就说：「小鬼!你去年曾经骂过我。」小羊可怜地说：「老实说，我去年还没有出生呢。」狼再说：「你在我的草地上吃过草。」
小羊回答说：「不，好先生，我还未曾尝过草的味道呢。」狼又说：「你喝过我井里的.水。」小羊叫道：「不，我从没有喝过水，因为直到今天为止，我都是吃着母亲的奶汁。」狼一听这话，便抓住它，把它吃下去，便说：「好!即使你驳倒我每一句话，我终究要吃晚餐的!」暴君总有他暴行的借口。

There was a farmer in the Song Kingdom in ancient China. He worked in his field day after day. In good harvest years, he could only have enough food to eat and enough clothing to wear. If the field failed to produce enough crops, he had to go hungry. This farmer wanted to improve his life. But he was too lazy and too cowardly. He always dreamed of having unexpected fortune.
A miracle took place at last. One day, when he worked in the field, some people were hunting nearby. They shouted loudly one after another. Some little animals were running desperately. Suddenly, a hare dashed itself headlong against the stump of a dead tree in his field and died.
That day, he had a good meal.
From that day on, he no longer worked in his field. From morning till night, he stayed by that miraculous stump, waiting for another hare. Will the miracle happen again?
People often use the set phrase “staying by a stump waiting for more hares to come and dash themselves against it" to refer to persons dreaming to reap without sowing.

奇迹终于发生了。一天，他正在田里干活，一群打猎的人靠近了。吆喝之声四处起伏，受惊的小动物们没命地奔跑。突然， 有一只兔子，不偏不倚，一头撞死在他田边的树根上。

望天树高极了，你要抬头看它，帽子准会掉到地上。它高得连灵敏的测高器也无法测量，测了上部顾不到下部，远远望去，像一个傲然屹立的巨人。
铁刀木矮极了，谁也没有注意过它。它长了一年又一年，身高却一直在一米以下。它在望天树的对面，相比之下，简直成了侏儒。
望天树用枝条抚摸着云彩，嘲笑铁刀木：“可怜的铁刀木啊，你只配到小人国里去生活。”铁刀木不卑不亢地说：“你是比我高得多，可是我的生命力却要比你强。”“什么?什么?”望天树怒视着它，气得大声喊叫起来：“天大的笑话!我这么高这么壮，生命力难道还比不过你这个矮子?”

电影美的呈现是颇令人惊诧的，《美女与野兽》作为一部享誉世界的经典童话，时隔近七十年的返璞归真，再次被法兰西这个曾创作它的国度搬上银幕，法式电影的浪漫格调与宛若油画般的镜头质感，营造了这奇幻曼妙的光影之梦，这是一场献予大人的法式童话。
谈起《美女与野兽》最为人家喻户晓的当是迪士尼于1991年制作的动画电影，但这并不是这个童话故事第一次被搬上银幕，早在1946年法国便早已然拍摄了同名真人电影，而这次的在度翻拍，技术层面上已然不可同日而语，追求电影镜头的精致，使这个法国著作能完美无瑕的得以还原于银幕，俨然成为了其首要因素，这也是选用曾在《寂静岭》《狼族盟约》中担任导演，见长于场景画面渲染法国导演克里斯多夫·甘斯的原因，就电影成片来看，画面的美感确实达到了令许多好莱坞大片都望其项背的高度，这种独具匠心美的呈现不仅是源于特效的营造，电影中华丽的礼服、夺目的背景、还是那深谙欧式风情精雕细琢的古堡城镇，这独到的美感更在于那法国文化呼之欲出深厚的人文底蕴。
画面的致美却未能在剧情上得见经典是新版的《美女与野兽》颇为人遗憾之处，作为一部翻拍著名童话的电影，剧情创新或能让观众眼前一亮，但因有其度的把控，顾此失彼以削弱电影人物情感主线为代价，来打造一支新的前世今生的故事辅线，使得电影“美女与野兽”这个核心命题却在新版中显得异常薄弱，爱与被爱的情感渲染因前篇缺乏积淀，本因是最为真挚感人的这人兽情缘在最后的结合却给人以莫名的牵强突兀，谱写了新的故事，却未能抓住原著经典真正的精髓，这不仅是《美女与野兽》，亦是许多翻拍经名著却未能获得称赞的症结。
对新版《美女与野兽》法式童话的评价并非单纯的褒义，电影虽有其独到的`法式浪漫，但剧情的欠缺使这部电影终只是部中肯的童话，却未能成为一部胜于蓝的佳作。
