6、d喷发for centuries，so the people of Pompeii felt safe.But they were not.In August of AD 79，Mount Vesuvius erupted.The entire top of the mountain exploded，and a huge black cloud rose into the air.Soon stones and hot ash began to fall on Pompeii.When the eruption ended two days later，Pompeii was buried

14、cause you live in a high rise with a rubbish chute？You wont be for long.Miamis Mark Shanties has made it simple for those living in tall buildings to use the chute and recycle too.In Shanties Hi-Rise Recycling System，a chute leads to a pie-shaped container with six boxes that can turn around when op

22、 called the present time is no more than a moment in human history and we are just the First Men.In 2，000 million years from now there will be the Eighteenth or Last Men.However，most of our ideas about the future are really very short-sighted.Perhaps we can see some possibilities for the next fifty

23、years.But the next hundred？The next thousand？The next million？Thats much more difficult.When men and women lived by hunting 50，000 years ago，how could they even begin to picture modern life？Yet to men of 50，000 years from now，we may seem as primitive原始的 in our ideas as the Stone-Age hunters do to us

24、.Perhaps they will spend their days rollicking to make new spindles，or struggling with their ballalators through the crib.These words，which I have just made up，have to stand for things and ideas that we simply cant think of.So why bother even to try imagining life far in the future？Here are two reas
