10．I put my carry-on in the luggage compartment（行李艙架），and sat down in my seat．Just before take-off，a line of soldiers came down the aisle（過道） and filled all the empty seats．
After flying for about an hour，an announcement was made that sack lunch （午餐袋）were available for 5．As I reached for my wallet to buy one，I overheard  the soldier ask his buddy if he planned to buy lunch．"No，that seems like a lot of money for just a sack lunch．I'll wait till we get to Chicago．"His friend agreed．
I looked around at the other soldiers．None were buying lunch．I walked to the back of the plane，and handed the flight attendant（服務(wù)人員）a 50 bill．"
Take a lunch to all those soldiers．"
After we finished eating．I went again to the back of the plane，heading for the restroom．A man stopped me．"I saw what you did．I want to be part of it．Here，take this．"He handed me 25．
Soon after I returned to my seat，I saw the Flight Captain coming down the aisle．
When he got to my row，he stopped and said，"I want to shake your hand．I was a soldier and I was a military（軍隊(duì)） pilot．Once，someone bought me a lunch．
It was an act of kindness I never forgot．"I was embarrassed when applause（掌聲） was heard from all of the passengers．
Later I walked to the front of the plane so I could stretch my legs．A man who was seated about six rows in front of me reached out his hand，wanting to shake mine．He left another 25 in my hand．
We landed in Chicago，I picked up my belongings．Waiting just inside the airplane door was a man who stopped me and put something in my shirt pocket．Another 25．
Upon entering the terminal（航站樓），I saw the soldiers gathering for their trip to their base．
I walked over to them and handed them 75．"It will take you some time to reach the base．It will be about time for a sandwich．God Bless You．"I  said．
These soldiers were giving their all  for our country．I could only give them a couple of meals．It seemed so little．

9．What might the future be like？Here are some predictions：things to come，things to go．
The last few days of every year in big cities in China，when everyone returns home，have been the worst headaches for millions of Chinese．More than 2billion people travel at the same time，making getting travel tickets and the journey difficult．But in 28years，Spring Festival travel may not be a problem at all．China plans to build more than 120，000kilometers of railway and a fast transportation network that will serve 90% of the population by 2020．And because most of China will be cities，people will not have to go to other places to find a job，so it will no longer be a problem．
Newspaper will come to an end in 2043．There will be less and less people reading news on paper and the cost of making and buying newspaper will be reduced．In the future，digital （數(shù)字的） newspapers will be sent to personal web tools through Internet．Readers can discuss topics with journalists and editors．Information will move faster．
Oil is running out faster than expected．But scientists have found something else for oil as fuel （燃料）．Coal，natural gas，solar power，nuclear power and even water can take the place of oil as sources of energy （能源）．And the alternative ways of energy will help reduce the cost and pollution，too．
Schools will go electronic （電子化）．Computers will be important and popular among the students．Everything will be in the computer and students will not need to bring books to school．They will find information on the Internet．A computer will be the students'library，schoolbag and connection to the outside world．There will be robot teachers，they will check homework on computers and communicate with the students'parents through e-mail．Students will find their personal teachers to ask for special help for those the robot teachers cannot do．And school buses will be like spaceships，comfortable and safe．

8．Some popular places to visit are built by people．Other famous places are created by nature．For example，in the northeast of the United States，there was a famous rock on a high mountain that looked just like an old man．He had lots of hair，a big nose and a beard．People called him"The Old Man of the Mountain"and every year more than a million people came to look at him．"The Old Man of the Mountain"，also known as the Great Stone Face or the Profile，was 1，200feet （370 meters） above Profile Lake，and measured 40feet （12 meters） tall and 25feet （7.6 meters） wide．The site is located in the town of Franconia，New Hampshire，USA．Scientists think that the stone face had been there for about 17，000years．
In May 2003，there was very bad weather near the Old Man of the Mountain．There were very high winds and the temperature was very cold．The sky was so cloudy that people couldn't see the stone face for many days．As soon as the storm was over，people looked for the Old Man and they couldn't see him．They discovered that he had fallen apart．The stones that made his face sank down the mountain．A number of scientists climbed up to see if they could repair the stone face，but they had to give up．They figured out（斷定）that the damage from the weather was just too bad．

5．If your pen broke at school today，what would you do？You would go to a shop and buy a new one．What if you could simply print out a real，working pen with your 3-D printer without leaving your room？
    Ten years ago people could only see 3-D printing in science fiction movies．But now 3-D printing is here and it's bringing big changes．
   Unlike normal printing that can only copy a3-D picture with ink.3-D printing can build almost anything made from material．The printer layers（分層） the material in different shapes to create the object you want to be copied．
   The 3-D printer has been used to make many different things．People have made cups cars and even an airplane with it．
   Doctors have been using 3-D printers for several years．People's nervous systems have been printed out in 3-D form medical research．Some body parts have been printed and used in hospital．Several months ago，doctors used a 3-D printer to rebuild the face of a person who had a bad accident．In the future，it is expected that the printer will make human organs to save more lives．
   However there are drawbacks to the printer．At the moment，printing can be quite slow and it's still rather expensive．The average（平均的） price of a household printer is around $1，700，not including the cost of the materials．
   But as the technology develops，it shouldn't be long before disadvantages are improved．Only time will tell where this new technology will take us．

4．Flow like the river of change
Little stream ran down from a high mountain through many villages and forests．Then it reached a desert．"I went through so many difficulties．I should have no problem crossing the desert，"she thought．As she started，she found herself slowly disappearing into the sand．After many tries，she still failed．"Maybe I can't reach the ocean，''she said sadly to herself．
At this time，a deep voice said，"If a breeze（微風(fēng)）can cross the desert，so can a river．"It was the voice of the desert．But the little stream answered，‘‘That's because a breeze can fly，but I can't．"
"That's because you can't give up what you are．Let yourself evaporate（蒸發(fā)）into the breeze，and it can take you across，"said the desert．"Give up what I am now？No!No!"The little stream could not accept this idea．"The breeze can carry the vapor（蒸汽）across the desert and let it leave as rain．The rain will form a river again，"said the desert．"And whether you're a river or vapor，your nature never changes．"Hearing this，the little stream went into the open arms of the breeze．It carried her to the next stage of her life．
