These gadgets claim they’ll make me a “better me,” or so the story goes. Some of them might actually help, but a few months ago, I decided to sell all my sports gadgets. I now record my running times with just a pen and a notepad. Soon after, I started training for a marathon the old-fashioned way—without a device on my wrist tracking my pace or heart rate. To my surprise, running without all that information turned out to be a real joy. In the past, whenever my smartwatch told me I was running slower than I “should,” I’d force myself to speed up, even if it was clear that my body didn’t want to. But this time, I ran the way I wanted to. On several occasions (场合), I was surprised to see real breakthroughs (突破) in my running times when I checked my notepad after workouts. If I had seen those numbers during the run, I might have slowed down. But since I didn’t know, I just kept running. Another positive thing about getting rid of all my running gadgets is that it’s helping me concentrate (集中注意力) more on the running itself. Since I no longer feel like I need technology to run well, I can go out and run without worrying about battery life. So, what’s the lesson here Well, we could very easily replace the example of running with writing, studying, or anything else. No matter what it is, the more we worry about improving, the more it hurts our performance. Should you stop using technology to “improve” your performance Of course, that’s up to you. However, if I were asked that question, I’d certainly say that I’m better off without it. 1．When did the writer decide to sell all of the sports gadgets 2．How does the writer record running times now 3．What is another positive thing about not using running gadgets anymore 4．What do you think of sports gadgets Why do you think so (at least 30 words) 阅读下面的短文，回答文后的问题。 Bitwalking is an invention made by a small company in London.

With this app, walkers can earn one “Bitwalking dollar” for about 1, 000 steps (about 8 kilometers). Three bitwalking dollars can be earned by one person per day at most. The money people earned can be spent in special online stores or exchanged for cash. One goal behind the app is to make people healthier.
