Today sending text messages(短信) through mobile phone(手机) is a part of our lives. According to a survey(调查), a third of the U.S. children send more than 100 text messages a day. Sending text messages is becoming more and more popular among young people in China, too. Children prefer text messages to communicate(交流) with friends no matter(不论) where they are, even under the noses of parents and teachers. It seems that some children are “addicted(上瘾)” to sending text messages. In fact, sending too many text messages is bad for their lives, health and study. However, it isn’t all bad. It helps to improve our lives in some ways. Today many children greet(问候) each other on holidays by sending text messages instead of writing paper cards. During the last Spring Festival, more than 15 billion(十亿) text messages were sent in China. “Sending text messages helps save my pocket money,” said Wang Cheng, a friend of mine, “and it saves paper, too.” Many parents send their kids text messages instead of giving orders by mouth. It sounds more friendly. And children can accept them easily.
