B
Tony Wheeler was born to travel. His father worked for an airline. For the first 16 years of his life,Wheeler and his family lived in many different countries.
In the early 1970s,Wheeler met a young woman named Maureen. They soon married. Before getting jobs, Tony and Maureen wanted to travel. They took a year-long trip from London,through Asia,to Australia. On the trip,they visited places like India, Iran, and Afghanistan.
When Tony and Maureen arrived in Australia,people asked many questions about their trip. To answer these questions,Wheeler wrote a guidebook called Across Asia on the Cheap . The book told people about different countries' weather,customs(风俗),and places to see. But unlike travel guides in the 1970s,Wheeler’s book also talked about places most tourists did not go. He also wrote about unusual things to see and do. The book was very popular.
Wheeler and Maureen started a company called Lonely Planet. They continued travelling. They wrote guidebooks for each place they visited. Today,400 people work for Lonely Planet. The company has over 650 guidebooks. Wheeler still writes about travel “hot spots” (for example,Cambodia in Asia and Croatia in Europe). For more information,read the books!

Computers are good tools(工具).The Internet is also good. But some people spend too much time online. They can’t stop. Doctors say this is a new sickness. They call this sickness Internet Addiction Disorder (互联网成瘾症)(IAD).
People with IAD are online a lot. They spend hours chatting to their friends or playing online games. Many people with IAD spend more time on the Internet than with family or friends. Some people with IAD even quit(辞掉)their jobs!
Do you have IAD? Think about these questions:How many hours a day are you online? Is it a lot or a little? When you are not online,are you thinking about playing a computer game or checking your messages? When you are online,do you forget the time? Do you get angry when you can’t play a game?
If you have IAD,what can you do? Dr. Ivan Goldberg and Dr. Kimberly S.Young have some ideas. First,ask yourself “Why am I online a lot?” Then try to take a break. For example,use the computer or play games twice a week,not every day. In this way,you can have a good social life with other friends.
