Seconds before the earth is hit by a gigantic planet or【C8】______by a super tsunami, millions of【C9】______ young fingers will be typing the human race’s last【C10】______words to itself.
Now, before I am【C11】______ of throwing stones in a glass house, let me 【C12】______. I probably send about 50 emails a day, and I receive what seems like 200. But there’s a【C13】______. I also read books. It’s a weird old habit I 【C14】______as a kid, in the days before cell phones began nesting, bird-like, in the【C15】______ of the young. Half of today’s teenagers don’t read books-— 【C16】______ when they’re made to. According to the most recent survey 【C17】______the National Endowment for the Arts, the【C18】______ of Americans between the ages of 18 and 24 who read a book not【C19】______at school or at work is now 50. 7 percent, the【C20】______for any adult age group younger than 75 , and down from 59 percent 20 years ago.
