Notes
niece 姪;

These days everyone uses their cell phones to find out how to get to a place they don’t know. No one uses paper maps anymore. I don’t have WiFi service with my phone here in the U.S., so I usually download a map on my iPad. The other day I had to go to my niece’s house 20 kilometers away by 8 a.m. Unfortunately, I left my iPad behind. Then I got lost on the way. What did I do? I called my sister at work. Luckily, she was able to give me good directions, and I got to my niece’s house on time. Cell phones are convenient, but I miss paper maps! (by Prof. Douglas Jarrell)
