29、n to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology (生物技术). With the help of new medicine, the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and war.

30、 discussion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells (细胞) are the basic units of all living things, and

37、ildren. They were beautiful little kids between the ages of 5 and 10 years old. They had their entire lives ahead of thembirthdays, graduations, weddings, kids of their own.

38、r hearts are broken todayfor the parents and grandparents, sisters and brothers of these little children, and for the families of the adults who were lost. Our hearts are broken for the parents of the survivors as well, for as blessed as they are to have their children home tonight, they know that t

39、heir childrens innocence has been torn away from them too early, and there are no words that will ease their pain.As a country, we have been through this too many times. Whether its an elementary school in Newtown, or a shopping mall in Oregon, or a temple in Wisconsin, or a movie theater in Aurora,
