22、t was the end of the phone.Water immediately leaked(渗入)into it and the phone was never turned on again.Now,this could be a post about what a poorly-designed product the case is,but in fact,that is not what Im writing about.Actually,what truly surprised us was what happened to our 12-year-old over th
23、e course of the next seven days of our vacation.Aside from the initial(最初的)five minutes after the phone died,our son never mentioned his phone again.Instead of his usual plugged-in state,he spent much of the vacation reading books,playing silly games with his siblings and talking to us at dinner.Nor
