Tom and Fred were talking about the year 2050.

　　“What will   1  be like in the year 2050?” asked Tom.

　　“I don’t know,” said Fred. “What do you think?”

　　“Well, no one knows. But it is __2__ to guess,” said Tom. “In the year 2050 everybody will carry a pocket (袖珍) __3___. The computer will give people the __4__ to all their problems. We shall all have telephones in our pockets,__5___ . And we’ll be able to talk to our friends all over the world. Perhaps(也许) we’ll be able to ___6__ them at the same time. Machines will do ___7___of the work, and people will have more__8__. Perhaps they will work only two or three days a week. They will be able to fly to the moon by spaceship and spend their holidays there.”

　　“I’m very _9__to hear that. I hope to fly to the moon. And I hope I’ll be able to live _10___,” said Fred. “Won’t that be interesting? Just like a fish.”

Mr Smith was ill and he went to see a doctor． The doctor asked  him to put out his tongue（舌头）， and then he said， “OK， You can put your tongue back now． There’s nothing wrong with you， but I’m afraid you have a problem． You hardly ever take exercise．”

　 “But， doctor，” Mr Smith said， “I don’t think so．”

　 “Don’t tell me what you think，” the doctor said， “I know    what you need．　I see a lot of people like you． None of them goes  any exercise． They sit in offices all day and in front of the        television in the evening． You must walk quickly for at least（至少）20 minutes a day．”

　 “I don’t want to hear any excuse（借口），” the doctor said． “You must find time for exercise． If you don’t， you will get fat and have health problems．”

　 “But I walk every day，” Mr Smith said．

　 “Oh， yes， and I know what kind of walking that is． You walk a few meters to the bus stop from your house， a few more meters from  the bus stop to your office， and a few more meters from your office  to your dining–room for lunch and back． That’s not a real walk．  I’m talking about a walk in the park or by the lake for twenty      minutes every day．”

　　“Would you please listen to me， doctor? Mr Smith said， getting a little angry with his doctor．

　　“I’m a postman，” Mr Smith went on， “and I walk for nearly（几乎）seven hours every day．”

　　For a moment the doctor was silent（沉默的）， then he said      quietly， “Put out your tongue again， will you?”

Problem:

I'm bored. We have a day off because of the heavy rain. If you didn't go to school today, what would you do? Why? Linda

Some advice:

If I were you, I would be at home doing something, such as making my bed or helping my mother do some chores. That way, my room would be clean and my parents would be happy. Tina　　

I would do what I love! Maybe I would help Mom do some cooking. I would learn how to make dumplings. Kathy　　

I don't have enough time in one day to do all the things I want to. People who get bored usually don't have a good imagination (想象力). There are lots of different books to read, websites to surf, people to visit and things to make. June　　

Well, if I were you, I would watch a good movie and then take a good nap (小睡). Your brain (脑子) and body will then be relaxed and ready for classes the next day. Lisa
