We've found that eating habits vary so much that it does not make sense to include meals in the price of our tours. We want to give you the freedom of choosing restaurants and ordering food that suits your taste and budget. As our hotels offer anything from coffee and toast to a full American breakfast at very reasonable prices, it will never be a problem for you to start the day in the way you like best. At lunch stops, your tour guide will show you where you can find salads, soups, and sandwiches. Dinner time is your chance to try some local food. Sometimes the tour guide will let you have dinner at a restaurant of your own choice. At other times he or she will recommend a restaurant at your hotel. Years of research have taught us which restaurants reliably serve a good choice of delightful dishes at down-to-earth prices.

My friend Mike was shaking his head in disbelief. "That young woman who just waited on me," he said, pointing to an employee of the fast food restaurant where we were eating, "had to call someone over to help her count the change. The cash register (出纳机) showed her I need 99 cents, but she couldn’t figure out how to count out the coins." I understood Mike’s concern. What we have done in this country, although unintentionally, is to create several generations of individuals most of whom have no idea how to reason, how to do simple math, how to do research, or finally how to be creative. The reason for this is our overuse of information technology: video games, television, digital watches, calculators, and computers. Information technology feeds us information without requiring us to think about it and let us perform operations without understanding them. It is time for us to take a hard look at an educational system that only teaches our children how to push buttons. Our kids can’t tell time if the clock hasn’t hands. They can use calculators, but cannot add, subtract, divide or multiply. Video games have taken the place of active, imaginative play. Although most of them are technically literate, they choose not to read. They are so used to television and movies that they cannot use their imagination to stay interested in a book. It is not enough to recognize the problem. What we need is solution. The one I offer is simple to suggest, but may be impossible to carry out. We must . If we don’t, they will never learn how to solve problems. They will never learn basic reasoning skills and will certainly not develop creativity. Instead of filling classrooms with electronics, let’s concentrate on good old-fashioned literacy—reading books. Students must be taught not only to perform computer operations, but to figure and reason for themselves. They must see how things work and how process leads to results, they must also stretch their imagination.What is the author’s and his friend Mike’s concern() A. The educational system is now creating people who can’t think for themselves. B. People now rarely do things on their own. C. Computers feed us too much information nowadays. D. The restaurant does not provide good service.
