The film Alice Through the Looking Glass is on. Millions of people go to cinemas to see it. The little girl Alice, with long hair of gold, is alive in people's mind again after the film Alice in Wonderland was shown in 2 010.

These two popular films was adapted from the novels Alice's Adventure in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass. Both of them were written by Lewis Carroll,a famous English writer, who himself was as interesting as his books.

Lewis Carroll was a math teacher and talented writer. In 1856,he met Henry Liddell and his three lovely daughters. His friendship with the family became an important part of his life over the following years. He liked the girls very much, especially the youngest one, Alice Liddell. He often told stories to make them happy. One day he took the girls to a boat trip. To make the time more enjoyable, he began a story about the adventure of a little girl named Alice in Wonderland. Many other strange characters such as the Mouse, the March Hare, the Cheshire Cat and the Queen of Hearts were brought to this wonderful world,too.

Alice Liddell loved the story and she begged Carroll to write it down for her.

We can't remember clearly since when we have started to take our mobiles to a dinner table. This happens a lot,especially when we eat out. Once a dish comes,instead of lifting our chopsticks,we take out our mobiles and click. Later, we post the photos onto Weibo or Wechat,waiting to be "liked". Then we check our mobiles from time to time during the meal,to see whether we get "liked" or not. We just cannot leave our mobiles for only a meal.

Does that sound familiar to yours? Do you do that often? If not,how do you feel when others do that when having dinner with you?

A recent study suggests that what we are used to doing is not so good. Spending time taking photos of food makes the food less pleasant. To test this,some researchers did an experiment. Some people were asked to take photos before they could enjoy food. As a result,it showed that the more photos they took, the less delicious the food seemed to them.

Besides the scientific result, there are also some other bad influences of taking photos of food before meals. After posting the photos onto the Internet,one will not be able to control himself and check his mobile many times. "Does everyone like my photos" It seems that your mobile secretly calls your name all the time, even when you are with real people.

So, next time you go out to have dinner with your family or friends, how about not taking photos of food? Let the food be delicious as it is and share your life with people around you. Trust me. It will be a wonderful time.

1.What happens a lot at the dinner table nowadays?

______________________________________________________________________

2.What does the recent study tell us about taking photos of food?

______________________________________________________________________

3.Do you often take photos of food before meals? Why or why not?
