Yesterday and Today
Life in the future will be different from life today. Between then and now many changes will take place， but what will the changes be？
The population is growing fast. There will be many people in the world and most of them will live longer than people live now. Computers will be much smaller and more useful， and there will be at least one in every home. And computer studies will be one of the important subjects in schools then.
People will work fewer hours than they do now and they will have more free time for sports， watching TV and travel. Travelling will be much cheaper and easier. And many more people will go to other countries for holidays.
There will be changes in our food， too. More land will be used for building new towns and houses for all the people. Then there will be less room for cows and sheep， so meat will be more expensive. Maybe no one will eat it every day. Instead they will eat more fruit and vegetables. Maybe people will be healthier.
Work in the future will be different， too. Dangerous and hard work will be done by robots. Because of this， many people will not have enough work to do. This will be a problem.

He was struggling to tie his shoes. I was struggling with whether I should help him.
I did， and he was grateful.
“Thank you，” he said.
“I’m glad I could help. I just thought it would be easier for me to reach，” I said.
He was a disabled man， and forced to look down most of the time. His arms and legs were twisted （扭曲的） terribly， and he couldn’t do what the rest of us would consider easy tasks. He always managed to look up to see how you reacted （反应） to his words， however. He had a big smile， making me feel comfortable.
I was still on my knees by his wheelchair.
“ Nice shoes，” he said.
“Thanks. No one ever complimented me on them before，” I said. “No one has the same view of the world as I do，” he replied.
“Tell me about the world as you see it，” I said， smiling.
“Most people can see if someone is comfortable with them or not in their eyes. I see it in their feet.” he said. “If people keep moving their feet， I just let them go， because I know they’re impatient with me. I don’t want to make people uncomfortable.”
“What about me？” I asked.
“I could see your compassion. And then you came down to my level. I was the one who was nervous.” he said. “I don’t normally have someone look at me in the eye.”
“They don’t know what they’re missing，” I told him.
“My old face is nothing to brag （自夸） about.” he said.
“But that smile is so big.”
Yes， and it’s not only a big smile but an attitude.

“I sometimes get up at three or four in the morning and I surf the net.”
“I often check my e-mail forty times a day.”
“I often spend more than three hours during one time on the net.”
“I spend more time in chat rooms than with my ‘real-1ife’ friends.”
Do you know any people like these？ They are part of a new addiction （上瘾） called Internet Addiction. Internet addicts spend at least thirty to forty hours online every week. The use of the Internet can be an addiction like drug use. People lose control of the time they spend on the Internet

And people worry about the teens because the Internet is changing the playing field for some of them. They spend more time in cyberspace than in the real world of friends and family.

One afternoon， in Paris， I took a trip to an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting. I was looking forward to a quiet view of some great paintings of excellent artists.
A young couple looking at the paintings in front of me were talking non-stop. I watched them a moment and found she was doing all the talking. In fact， I was surprised at this man for putting up with her everlasting speech. Bored by their noise， I moved on. I met them several times as I moved through those rooms of art. Each time I heard her voice， I moved away at once.
I was standing at the museum gift shop buying some cards when the couple walked to the exit （出口）.

It explained the non-stop talk！ A sudden sense of shame came to my heart for what I was thinking just now. “But what does he get out of the art？” I asked.
“His wife describes each painting so he can see it in his head.”
At that moment I realized what is patience， courage and love. I saw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person who can’t see and courage of a husband who would not allow blindness change his love towards art. And I felt the love shared by the two as I watched them walking away holding each other’s hands.
46. How did the writer feel in the beginning when hearing the woman’s talking？

Sometimes people come into your life and you know that they are there to teach you a lesson， or to help you understand who you are or who you want to become.
You never know these people who may be a classmate， a neighbour or a friend—but when you lock your eyes on them， you know at that very moment they will influence your life in some ways.
Sometimes things that happen to you may seem unpleasant， painful， or frustrating （令人沮丧的） at first. But in another way， you find that without getting over those difficulties you would have never realized your ability， strength or will power （意志力）.
The people you meet and the success you get help to create who you are and who you will become. Even the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact， they are sometimes the most important ones.
If someone loves you， give love back to them in the way you can， not only because they love you， but because in a way， they are teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to things.
If someone hurts you， or breaks your heart， forgive （原谅） them， for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being careful of people around.
Self-confidence is necessary to a person. If you’re not con-fident，it will be hard for others to believe in you.
Learn a lesson in life each day you live！
根据短文内容，回答下列问题。
1. Who can influence your life in some ways？
2. Are unpleasant things good for you？
3. Why are bad experiences very important to you？
4. What should you do if somebody hurts you？
5. What does the writer try to tell us？

One afternoon， in Paris， I took a trip to an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting. I was looking forward to a quiet view of some great paintings of excellent artists.
A young couple looking at the paintings in front of me were talking non-stop. I watched them a moment and found she was doing all the talking. In fact， I was surprised at this man for putting up with her everlasting speech. Bored by their noise， I moved on. I met them several times as I moved through those rooms of art. Each time I heard her voice， I moved away at once.
I was standing at the museum gift shop buying some cards when the couple walked to the exit （出口）.
“He’s a brave man，” said the shop assistant. “Most of us would give up if we were blinded at such a young age. But he and his wife come in whenever there’s a new art show.”
It explained the non-stop talk！ A sudden sense of shame came to my heart for what I was thinking just now. “But what does he get out of the art？” I asked.
“His wife describes each painting so he can see it in his head.”
At that moment I realized what is patience， courage and love. I saw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person who can’t see and courage of a husband who would not allow blindness change his love towards art. And I felt the love shared by the two as I watched them walking away holding each other’s hands.

Sometimes people come into your life and you know that they are there to teach you a lesson， or to help you understand who you are or who you want to become.
You never know these people who may be a classmate， a neighbour or a friend—but when you lock your eyes on them， you know at that very moment they will influence your life in some ways.
Sometimes things that happen to you may seem unpleasant， painful， or frustrating （令人沮丧的） at first. But in another way， you find that without getting over those difficulties you would have never realized your ability， strength or will power （意志力）.
The people you meet and the success you get help to create who you are and who you will become. Even the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact， they are sometimes the most important ones.
If someone loves you， give love back to them in the way you can， not only because they love you， but because in a way， they are teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to things.
If someone hurts you， or breaks your heart， forgive （原谅） them， for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being careful of people around.
Self-confidence is necessary to a person. If you’re not con-fident，it will be hard for others to believe in you.
Learn a lesson in life each day you live！
根据短文内容，回答下列问题。
1. Who can influence your life in some ways？
2. Are unpleasant things good for you？
3. Why are bad experiences very important to you？
4. What should you do if somebody hurts you？
5. What does the writer try to tell us？
