My names Mekanika and I live in the 3044. Well, thats what you would call it. We call it the year 58 AL. AL means

9、 “After Leaving”. You see, 58 years ago, people on the earth decided that they,had to do something to save the people on the planet. There are so many people on the earth, and there was so much pollution, that the only way to keep the planet from dying was to send people into space. My family was on

10、e of the those ones. About one third of the earths population was left back,home, and the rest of us went into space. Were now living in a new city on the planet Mars. Life here is very nice, and we are happy in our new home. We still keep in touch with the people on earth and some of us go back for

11、 short visits. The earth is better now, and the people back home are doing their best to clean,up the planet. I was born here on Mars and Ive never been to earth. My grandparents and parents tell me about the earth and it sounds like a beautiful place. When my science teacher told me that we could u

That probably sounds very strange to you, but, you see, we have a different time system here. We divide the day into eight parts. Two oclock in,Listening text,the morning here on Mars is almost

15、 like six oclock on earth. I eat breakfast with my family before I go to school. The food here is different from your food: we eat pills and drink juice to stay healthy. My history book says that you ate something called bread and even ate meat from other animals!,That sounds very strange to me. We

16、dont eat any animals here and Ive never even seen bread. At three thirty I catch the school spaceship and fly to class. We dont have schools and classrooms. We meet our learning guides (you called them teachers ) in different places and solve problems,together. I love school. My friends are wonderfu

17、l and I like to think about the world in new ways. I also like creating things with my mind box (you called it a computer). Im very interested in what you call “painting” and “singing”. Can you please tell me more about what they are? Ive read about your,life in my history book, but its difficult to

18、 understand how you lived such a long time ago. Could you please write to me and tell me about your life? Thank you. I have to get back to work. I have a test in Mars geography next week, so I need to prepare for it.,Speaking,Twice as good or double trouble?,double as good,double trouble,It would be wonderful if Its possible/impossible to predict Just imagine if It would be bad forif No one can predict what/when We can only guess,Speaking,A: With the development of science and technology, the double would be made in the future.
