A couple of months before I started high school，my parents gave me the greatest gift any teenage boy could ask for：a cellphone.I lived on that phone all summer with my face buried in its screen.I ignored my family and my surroundings .Being connected was more important than being present.
    So，you can imagine my displeasure when I learned what my dad had planned for our family vacation that year. "This year，" my dad said， "we'll be doing something special.We're going camping!" His excitement was met with a disappointed sigh.It wasn't my dream vacation because mind was on my phone.I was so buried in the screen，in fact，that the first time I can remember truly looking up was when we drove across a bridge on the way to our campsite.
    I stared out the window and saw redwoods towering above us，their branches threatening to pierce （刺破）the blue sky.I saw a roaring river，with slivers of silky black water appearing between crashing white rapids.The air blowing into the car from the open windows was hot.But none of that mattered to me.The reason I had looked up was for something far more serious：my phone no longer had service.
    The last hour of the drive was increasingly tense.My dad announced that he had chosen a campsite that had no cell service，and that my phone would be useless until we returned home.I would be trapped in the forest for four days with no way to contact the outside world!I went through the full cycle of teenage emotions during the first day of the trip.I raged（發(fā)怒）.I bargained.I begged.I flip-flopped（轉(zhuǎn)變）from a depressive state to anger and back.
    I went to bed angrily that night.But when I awoke in the morning，something had changed.
