My mother is an enthusiastic user of the Internet，although it took me years to get her to use e－mail.She was born with normal hearing，but lost it when she was 3.She was totally deaf for many years，until age 53，when she got ear aids.They work really well.That is a big change for her.But before then，her friends couldn't call her on the phone，so they insisted (坚持) she use e－mail to communicate with them.

　　Young people don't even think of the Internet as technology.It's just there，and they use it.There's been a very interesting change in communications styles between old people and young people.There are some kids who are now in their teens and aren't willing to make phone calls.And they think of e-mail as old－fashioned and slow.

　　The reason why teens don't make phone calls seems to be that they don' t know what to say.When they call they often stop for a while.They don't know what to say，and there's this silence.On the other hand，texting is considered proper，and it's okay if you don't answer.You might have been distracted (心烦意乱的)．It's not considered rude.But it is considered strange if you're in this kind of voice conversation and simply stop talking.

　　【语篇解读】　文章主要讲的是网络和运用程序对老年人生活的影响，网络方便了他们，但同时也为他们带来了难题。

　　46．What is the trouble that old people meet when surfing the Internet?
