Is the art of conversation dying? The other day,my wife _____ two teenage children did something we haven’t ______ for ages.It didn’t require the Internet,a TV screen,batteries...or anything else for that matter.But we all _____ it so much we’re thinking of doing it again sometime.
We had a conversation,the kind of real,live conversation that was _____ when I was growing up,which seems all too rare these days.Today we have chat rooms,text messages,e-mails...but we seem to be losing the _____ of communicating face-to-face.We all know _____ young people are out for a date(约会) these days,they spend most of that time _____ their mobile phones.And teenagers nowadays seem to _____ communicating with their friends by sending text messages to actually _____ to them.
