As I walked across the campus of Pittsburgh' s Carnegie Mellon University，I came upon a table filled with young people chatting and enjoying the fine weather．（1）FFTrilogy，an Austin，Texas-based software company，had a reputation for recruiting （招聘）our top students．I walked over to the table． "Are you guys here to recruit？" I asked． "No，" they replied firmly． "We' re not recruiters．We' re just hanging out with friends． " How interesting，I thought．They' ve come to campus on a workday，all the way from Austin，just to hang out with friends．
I noticed one member of the group sitting on the grass，having multicolored hair，full-body tattoos，and multiple holes in his ears．（2）AABut as I would later learn，he was a gifted student who had inked the highest-paying deal in the history of their departments．What a change from my own college days，when students would put on their dressy clothes and carefully hide their personalities to prove that they could fit in with the company．（3）DD In fact，the guy I met on the campus just signed on with Trilogy，right at that table on the grass，with the recruiters who do not "recruit"．
（4）EEI once asked one young man why he was going to a smaller city in Texas． "The company is excellent，" he told me． "There are also terrific people and the work is challenging． "Though he had several good job offers from Pittsburgh' s high-tech firms and knew the city well，he said he felt the city lacked the lifestyle options，cultural diversity，and tolerant attitude that would make it attractive to him．
（5）GGHe is a member of what I call the creative class：a fast-growing，highly educated and well-paid part of the workforce．They do not consciously think of themselves as a class．Yet they share a common attitude that values creativity，individuality，difference，and advantage．
A．An obvious lazy guy avoiding work，I thought．
B．As they summed it up， "How would I fit in here？"
C．Some of them are the top students in the university．
D．Today，apparently，it' s the company trying to fit in with the students．
E．While I was interested in the change，something even bigger struck me．
F．Several had identical blue T-shirts with "Trilogy @ CMU" written across them．
G．This young man represents a lively new force in the economy and life of America．

1．Most smart phones allow you to run location-sharing software that uses the phone's GPS capability to let friends and family know your exact location．There are lots of great uses for this technology．（1）
So make sure you're permitted to use an app or service，and pay attention to how you are using it．Here're some important points you may find helpful．

Know who your friends are．（3）This means people can search to see if you're online and add you as a friend．It's important to remember that sharing your location with people you've never met in real life is risky，so you should carefully manage friend requests and share your location only with people you know and trust．
（4）Some services automatically stop sending your location after a period of time，but others will send it forever-until you stop it．Review your contact list periodically and delete anyone to whom you no longer feel comfortable revealing your location．
Update parents．Location-based services are a great way for teens to let parents know where they are without having to call or text．（5）If you're heading home late at night，you can also use a service like Glympse to share your location as you drive，so they'll know if you have car trouble or get stuck in traffic．A．Check back often．

3．Dear Laura，
Thanks for letting us to stay at your seaside house． Now， you might have heard from your neighbors about which happened on Saturday evening． When I was out a walk， my younger son， Tom， played football before your house． He made so many noise that the neighbors got quite angrily． Even worse， Tom broke one of the window of Mr． Wilson's house． Tom and I apologized to all the neighbors for the unhappy happenings， but promised to have the broken window repair soon． Tom said that we would not do such silly things any more． I am glad that your neighbors had forgiven us． They are really nice people．
Yours，
