why must we apologize if we decide to shut off the cellphone for a while? the problem is that we come from a long-established tradition of difficulty with distance communication. until the recent mass use of cellphones, it was easy to communicate with someone next to us or a few feet away, but difficult with someone across town, the country or the globe. we came to take it for granted. but cellphones make long-distance communication common, and endanger our time by ourselves. now time alone, or a conversation with someone next to us which cannot be interrupted by a phone, is something to be cherished (珍惜). even cellphone devotees, myself usually included, cant help at times wanting to throw their phones away, or curse the day they were invented. but we dont and wont, and there really is no need. all thats required to take back our private time is a general social recognition that we have the right to it. in other words, we have to develop a healthy contempt (轻视) for the rings of our own phones. given the ease of making and receiving cellphone calls, if we dont talk to the caller right now, we surely will shortly later. a cellphone call deserves no greater priority than a random word from the person next to us.though the call on my cellphone may be the one-in-a-million from steven spielberg who has finally read my novel and wants to make it his next movie. but most likely it is not, and im better off thinking about the idea i just had for a new story, or the slice of pizza ill eat for lunch. 67. what is the point of the story ab
