A world of phones

Chen Yaqi

It was a sunny day.Delighted，I walked into a restaurant to meet my old friend，Jim.It has been five years since we met last time.

“Hey，Cathy！”Jim has already been there and ordered some food looking delicious.

“Hey，Jim！”I greeted him with a bright smile.

At that time，my phone rang.Oh，I saw there was some funny messages being pushed in Weibo.I couldt wait to click.Jim first just looked at me and waited.But I totally immersed myself in the phone.I was so concentrated in it that I didnt consider Jims feeling.I didnt notice the expression on Jims face changed from kind to angry.

Suddenly，my jaw dropped in amazement at a piece of news on the screen.It said that an adult who was addicted to the phone one day found everything around him all became phones！From then on，the man lived an lonely life with nobody talking to him in the world.I felt it unbelievable.How did such a thing happen？But I looked up，only to find everything around me became phones like the one I was just using！Jim also looked not like Jim.I was numb with fright.Everyone in my sight was a phone that has Wechat，Weibo，QQ on its screen just like what the news said.

As I wanted to leave there，a beam of light shone my face.Everything around me came back to what they were supposed to be like.I saw Jim was still a bit angry.I told him what I saw just now.Jim smiled and told me something sincerely，“Dont be afraid，it was just a fantasy.I think through the news you saw and your dream，you should understand，there is something more important than the phone in the big world，they are family，lover，and friends.If we only pay attention to the phone，the world we have will change into a world of phones，without any love.Look，we havent met each other for so long，your playing phone hindered our chat.And maybe for others，your behaviour will make them feel ignored and unrespected.So，lay down the phone，talk with others and open your eyes to find other beautiful things in the beautiful world.”At that moment，I felt ashamed.

Indeed，in the rapidly developing world，phones are more and more essential for us.But what we should bear in mind is that life doesnt only has phones，we should spend more time with the people who love us.We also should use phones properly.

Dont make your phone a wall which cut off your connection with others and the real world！
