It all began as we were standing in front of the bathroom mirror, while I fixed Amanda's blonde hair. I said, “I love you, Amanda．” “And, I love you,” she replied．“Well, I love you more.” Her eyes lit up as she recognized the cue （暗示） for the start of another “I love you more” match. “Nun-uh,” she laughed．“I love you the most.” “I love you bigger than a volcano!” I countered---a favorite family phrase in these battles of love. “But, Mom, I love you from here to China．” A country she’s learning about from our new neighbors up the street.
We volleyed back and forth a few favorite lines. “I love you more than peanut butter.” “Well, I love you more than television.” “I even love you more than bubble gum.” It was my turn again, and I made the move that usually brought victory. “I love you bigger than the universe!” On this day, however, Amanda was not going to give up. I could see she was thinking. “Mom,” she said in a quiet voice, “I love you more than myself.”
I stopped, surprised by her sincerity. Here I thought I knew more than she did．I thought I knew at least everything that she knew. But I didn’t know this. My four-year-old daughter knows more about love than her 28-year-old mom.

We live in a digital world now, and a student’s technology needs have changed. For the early years, when you are in primary school, you can get by with no technology at all. Even if you have a computer, it’s a good idea to get children familiar with libraries. At this age, trips to the library are like family outings.
As you get closer to middle school, a computer with Internet access becomes more of a necessity. Teachers will often give assignments that require a student to use the Internet for research. After a computer, technology choices for students become more difficult to make – especially when it comes to cell-phones. Kids will beg their parents for a cell-phone, especially in middle school. For many parents, it’s a safety issue: They want to know that their kids can reach them quickly if necessary. For teachers, cell phones can be used to record lessons when students are absent. But many teachers dislike cell-phones. Some kids send messages or have talks in the class. Sending messages also raises the problem of cheating on exams. More and more schools are now forbidding the use of cell-phones.
Many kids see iPods as necessary things to have. IPods are great for music, but do they do anything good for your children’s education? Maybe they do. That’s the opinion of Doug Johnson, an educator for 30 years. Johnson says that educators should accept all new forms of technology in the classroom, including iPods. “Some do more with their cell- phones than we can do with our laptops,” he jokes. “I don’t think we should be afraid. The truth is that it’s easier to change the way we teach than to change the technology habits of an entire generation.”

“Don’t care”— so they say—fell into a goose-pond; and “I won’t” is likely to come to no better an end. At last，my grandmother tells me that was how the Miller had to quit his native town，and leave the tip of his nose behind him.
It all came of his being allowed to say “I won’t” when he was quite a little boy. His mother thought he looked pretty when he was pouting（撅嘴），and that willfulness gave him an air which distinguished him from other people’s children. And when she found out that his lower lip was becoming so big that it spoilt his beauty，and that his willfulness gained its way twice and stood in his way eight times out of ten，it was too late to change him.
Then she said，“ Dearest Abinadab，do be better-mannered ! ”
And he replied (as she had taught him)，“I won’t.”
He always took what he could get，and would neither give nor give up to other people.
He quarreled with his friends till he had none left，and he quarreled with the tradesmen of the town till there was only one who would serve him，and this man offended him at last. “I’ll show you who’s master!” said the Miller. “ I won’t pay a penny of your bill-not a penny.” “ Sir ，” “ said the tradesman，“ my giving you offence now，is no just reason why you should refuse to pay for what you have had and been satisfied with. I must beg you to pay me at once.” “ I won’t，”said the Miller，“ and what I say I mean. I won’t. I tell you，I won’t.”
So the tradesman summoned (传唤) him before the justice，and the justice decided that he should pay the bill and the costs of the suit.
“I won’t，”said the Miller.
So they put him in prison，and in prison he would have remained if his mother had not paid the money to obtain his freedom. By and by she died，and left him her blessing and some very good advice，which would have been more useful if it had come earlier.
68. The underlined sentence in the first paragraph means “to say ‘I won’t ’ is ______.”
A. as good as to say ‘Don’t care’ B. as bad as to say ‘Don’t care’
C. less good than to say ‘Don’t care’ D. much better than to say ‘Don’t care’
69. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.
A. the mother died because the Miller was in prison
B. the Miller’s willfulness did more good than harm to his growth
C. the mother’s allowing the Miller to say “I won’t” badly influenced him
D. the Miller refused to pay the tradesman for being unsatisfied with the trade
70. The writer thinks the mother’s advice was ______.
A. late B. useless C. timely D. honest
71. What will probably be talked about after the story?
A. How the Miller saved his trade. B. How the Miller started his new trade.
C. How the Miller offended his customers. D. What made the Miller leave his native town.
