Thornton Blease, a 14-year-old boy from New Jersey, US, won the National Best Teen Writing Award last year for his short essay Creative Tapestry.
Blease’s essay describes his experiences at the ancient ruins (古代遗址) 2,400 meters above sea level in the mountains of Peru.

Blease has a serious disability affecting his central nervous system (中枢神经系统). He has never given up fighting against the disability. He has to work much harder than other young people of his age in order to stand out.

He began reading at three. Since then, he has been very interested in reading. His favorite author is Charles Dickens.
Blease usually has his own opinions. For example, he thinks the book series (系列) Twilight
(《暮光之城》) are poorly written. He is against playing video games. And he dislikes algebra (代数) most, although he is doing well in that subject.

I read an article about people living in the e-age yesterday. It talks about different ways of communicating like chatting online, sending e-mails, sending different kinds of messages and keeping an online diary.
The article says that people nowadays send e-mails at least once a day. I don’t agree with this because I send e-mails only twice a week. However, I do check my e-mails once a day. I’m happy to receive e-mails.
About chatting online, the article says that chatting online is becoming more and more popular among teenagers. I think this is true. Whenever I arrive at home, I turn on my computer and log (登录) on to chat with my friends. I prefer chatting online to calling up a friend, because I can chat with many friends at the same time. But when I don’t have my computer with me, I send short messages to my friends. I also like keeping in touch with them in this way.
I keep an online diary four times a week. I like writing down what has happened to me, happy or sad.
I think I’m one of the people living in the e-age. I can’t live without my computer or my mobile phone.
What about you? Can you live without computers or mobile phones?

In 1999, a television company in Britain made a very popular programme called The 1900 House. They changed an ordinary house in a street in London, and it was the same as a house from the year 1900. For example, it had no electricity. The toilet was outside in the garden, and all the furniture (家具) was from 1900 or before.
Then they let a family, the Browns, live in the house for three months. Six people in the family lived in the house: Paul and Joyce Brown, their daughters Kathryn, Ruth and Hilary and their son, Joe. For three months, while they were living in the house they had to wear Victorian (维多利亚女王时代的) clothes and live like people at that time. For example, they had to wash their hair with egg and lemon, not shampoo. They had to wash their clothes by hand because they didn’t have a washing machine, and they had to use the WC outside in the garden. But the family didn’t have to go shopping because the TV company did all their shopping for them.
There were cameras inside the house to film the family’s everyday life, and the Browns talked on television about their experiences. Here are some of the things that Hilary said later about her time in the house:
‘Some things were difficult. We had to find things to do in the evenings, because there were no televisions or computers, and we all had to work hard to clean the house and cook our food. My sister and I had to share a bedroom and a bed, too! It was fun and we didn’t have to go to school every day. That was nice. But I don’t want to do it again. I think I’d like to live in the future, not in the past!’
