23、tening words in the English language are, “Our computer is down.” You hear it more and more when you are on business. The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, “Im sorry, I cant sell you a ticket. Our computer is down.” “If your com

24、puter is down, just write me out a ticket.” “I cant write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so.” I looked down on the computer and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen. Then I asked her, “What do all you people do?” “We gi

25、ve the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not.” “So when it goes down, you go down with it.” “Thats good, sir.” “How long will the computer be down?” I wanted to know.“I have no idea. Sometimes its down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hour

26、s. Theres no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since its down it wont answer us.” After the girl told me they had no backup(备用) computer, I said. “Lets forget the computer. What about your planes? Theyre still flying, arent they?” “I couldnt tell without asking the computer.” “May

27、be I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if hes flying to Washington, ” I suggested.“I wouldnt know what gate to send you to. Even if the pilot was going to Washington, he couldnt take you if you didnt have a ticket.” “Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours

28、?” “I wouldnt know, ” she said, pointing at the dark screen. “Only IT knows. It cant tell me.” By this time there were quite a few people standing in lines.

32、ill live on the planet Mars. Our own planet, Earth, is becoming more and more crowed and polluted. Luckily, we can start again and build a better world on Mars. Here is what life could be like.First of all, transport should be much better. At present, our spaceships are too slow to carry large numbe

33、rs of people to Marsit takes months. However, by 2100, spaceship can travel at half the speed of light. It might take us two or three days to get to Mars!Secondly, humans need food, water and air to live. Scientists should be able to develop plants that can be grown on Mars. These plants will produc

34、e the food and air that we need. However, can these plants produce water for us? There is no answer now.There is a problem for us to live on Mars. Mars pulls us much less than the Earth does. This will be dangerous because we could easily jump too high and fly slowly away into space. To prevent this

35、, humans on Mars have to wear special shoes to make themselves heavier.Life on Mars will be better than that on the Earth in many ways, people will have more space. Living in a large building with only 10 bedrooms is highly possible. Many people believe that robot will do most of our work, so we hav

36、e more time for our hobbies.There will probably be no school on Mars. Every student will have a computer at home which is connected to the Internet. They can study, do their homework and take exams in online schools. Each student will also have their own online teacher called “e-teacher”.However, in

37、 some ways, life on Mars may not be better than that on the Earth today. Food will not be the samemeals will probably be in the form of pills and will not be as delicious as they are today.

40、hioned but nice, like dolls house. I loved the countryside and the pubs, and I loved London. Ive slightly changed my mind after seventeen years because I think its ugly now.Things have changed. For everybody, England meant gentleman, fair play, and good manners. The fair play is going, unfortunately

41、, and so are the gentlemanly attitudes and good mannerspeople shut doors heavily and politeness is disappearing.I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places. You are forced to live indoors. In Paris I go out much more, to restaurants and nightclubs. To meet friends here usually has to b

42、e in a pub, and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman. The cafs are not terribly nice.As a woman, I feel unsafe here.
