caught me laughing at a piece of mail id just opened. “wake-up service; $2.50 per call.” at the bottom was a phone number and a drawing of a rotary phone, like the one my great-aunt sara had owned 40 years ago. “is that mail funny?” genie asked.“not really,” i admitted. “its just outdated.”“who sent this flyer(传单)?” she pressed.“probably someone older,” i said, “and could use some money.”her eyes

said, tearing up. “cant we order?”i looked at the flyer with its drawing of a rotary phone. i remembered, again, my great-aunt sara and her rotary phone. as a kid, id visited her over labor day, when jerry lewis would host his charity event for the disabled kids. aunt sara would squeeze my hand, then reach for the rotary phone, dialing the number on the screen. holding the receiver between us, wed announce to the operator, “wed like to help those kids.”now here was my own child, showing the same big heart id once been encouraged to have, and how could i ignore her? i googled the flyers return address. the address belonged to a man called raymond. he was in his mid-60s. we called him and, holding the receiver between us, the way aunt sara and i used to, told him we needed his services. “great!” raymond said in a shaky but friendly voice, clearly amazed at receiving an order from a child. genie was happy all week. technology has made some things outdated. but there are still other

engineer, most famous for being the first person to show the use of a working television. john logie baird was born on 14 august 1888 in helensburgh on the west coast of scotland, the son of a churchman. though suffering ill health for most of his life, he showed early signs of inventiveness. when he was young he showed great interest in science. his studies at the glasgow and west of scotland technical college were interrupted by the outbreak of world war one. considered unfit for the forces, he was refused by the army. then he served as a chief engineer who was in charge of the engineers of the clyde valley electrical power company. baird then moved to the south coast of england and applied himself to creating a television. his family advised him not to, but he did not listen to them. he rented an attic, bought the things he needed and started working. although he worked for a long time he was not successful. one day he saw a picture on his screen. so he rushed out to get someone he could “televise”. he found an office boy and took him back to his room for his experiment. however, no image of the boy appeared on his screen. the boy, terrified, had put down his head. when he put it up again his picture appeared on the screen. thats how television had been discovered.on 26 january 1926 he gave the worlds first demonstration of true television before 50 scientists. in 1927, his television was demonstrated over 438 miles of telephone line between london and glasgow, and he formed the baird television development company (btdc). in 1928, the btdc achieved the first transatlantic (横渡大西洋) television broadcast between london and new york and the first transmission(传输) to a ship in mid-atlantic. he also gave the first demonstration of both colour and stereoscopic television.baird died on 14 june 1946 in bexhill-on-sea in sussex.28. why was baird refused by the army?a. he had bad eyesight. b. he was in poor health.c. he was not brave enough.d.

very popular film of the same name. star programmer howard warshaw created it with consultation from the film director steven spielberg.it was july 27th, 1982. howard warshaw was hot off the success of his most recent game, raiders of the lost ark. he received a call from atari c.e.o, ray kassar. atari had bought the rights to make a video game version of spilbergs movie, e.t. kassar told warshaw that spielberg had specifically asked for warshaw to make the game, but atari needed the game finished by september 1st in order to start selling it during the christmas season.it had taken warshaw six months to create raiders of the lost ark. he was expected to create e.t. in around five weeks. warshaw accepted the challenge anyway and production began. spielberg wanted players to explore different environments in 3d world. usually companies like atari have people test games before releasing them, but they decided to skip testing.the game was a hot holiday item at first. unfortunately, atari overestimated how many they would sell. they made 5 million copies and they only sold 1.5 million. most people who played the game hated it.too many copies of the game sat on store shelves. one employee remembers the game being discounted five times, from $49.95 to less than a dollar. a newspaper in new mexico reported that between 10 and 20 semitrailer truckloads of atari products were crushed and buried at landfill in alamogordo. atari lost over $100 million on e.t. the game was so bad that it was said to have affected ataris reputation. the video game industry soon fell into a deep depression, with a profit $3.2 billion in 1983 to just over $100 million in 1985, almost a 97% drop. e.t. the extra-terrestrial will long be remembered as one of the worst games ever made, if not one of the causes of the decline of entire video game industry.32. from the passage we know that howard warshaw was _. a. a c.e.o. b. a game designer c. a movie star d. a video game seller33. atari

best ways to encourage otherswho at some point in his/her life does not need encouragement? whether we are on the receiving or giving end, encouragement can sometimes hold us together when things get tough. 36._ knowing how to give the right type of encouragement to a friend can be important when he/she is going through a tough time.37. _we all remember times when we felt blue, the smallest gesture of encouragement from a friend helped brighten our day. a smile, a wave or a light pat on the back can say what we sometimes cannot find the right words to say.really “listening” to someone sometimes seems to be a lost art. really listening to a friend will sometimes be all he/she needs to feel encouraged. 38._ once your friend finished saying something, let him/her ask for your advice if he/she wanted it. it could be that all he/she really wanted was just someone who could listen to his/her problems.use positive words. in your conversation with your friend who is feeling down, remember not to use any negative words. 39._ start with words like, “you will feel better.” or “you can do this.”lying is never helpful. telling a friend his/her marriage will “get better” when you

him/her. do not force your opinion upon your friend. 40._a. take time just to say “thank you”.b. but when asked for advice, be truthful.c. its only natural to expect a reward after hard work.d.
