Model Essay(范文)：
If I were to leave my home for a year, there is one thing I definitely would take with me: mycell phone. With my cell phone, I could call my friends or family if I ever was lonely, neededadvice, or just wanted to talk.
If I were away from home for a year, I would be very lonely, especially in the beginning beforeI made friends. If I could call my mother and father, I would hear their familiar voices and Iwould not feel so lonely. Hearing my friends’ voices would also help me overcome my sadness.
I’ve never been on my own so there are many things I am not familiar with. I’ve never openeda bank account, got a driver’s license, or made my own food. If I had to cook chicken orsomething, I could call up my mother and she could tell me how to make dinner.
Sometimes, I may just want to talk in my own language. With my cell phone, I could call myfriends and tell them about my new life. This would make them jealous of me. I would call thema lot so they could hear all the wonderful things I am doing.
For me a cell phone is a necessity. I would need it anytime I was lonely, anytime I needed todo something I didn’t know how to do, and anytime I just wanted to talk. Of course, the phonebill will be sent to my parents.
