10．For her 85th birthday，I gave my mother Susan an iPad.She'd never used a computer.She had a trying relationship with her TV remote control and a painful experience with her mobile phone.However，this time she was dying to learn about the iPad.She believed that if she didn't keep up with technology，she would find herself in a computerized kitchen， "unable to open a can of soup".

Next，we dealt with Netflix，the widely-used video website.Mom is a movie lover and she was surprised by the number of crime movies that Netflix can offer.One Saturday，she called me because she was having trouble logging onto（登錄）Netflix.I suggested it might require an update. "They probably have fewer people working as it's a long weekend，" she told me.
Later，she taught herself to learn FaceTime and started her experiments with podcasts，and even started emailing her grandchildren.
As she became more familiar，she began wondering about all the icons（圖標），so we set up a weekly lecture，which takes place on the phone，each of us with our iPads.One day，I tried for 45 minutes to help her find the search bar. "It looks like a magnifying glass（放大鏡），" I kept saying.Finally，she asked： "You mean the frying pan？"
Unexpectedly，she made great progress.Now she becomes interested in E-books and even check them out in the middle of the night.She watches TV series and knows what's popular.It's great to see how much her confidence has grown.Yesterday，she FaceTimed me. "I've made a decision，" she said. "I'm going to learn how to operate every piece of technology in the apartment - including the TV remote." However，I still can't wait for the day when we can sit down in person and surf the Internet together.
