Jim didn't come to school yesterday, so he didn't know set off.

    A few years ago, I was eating dinner with my children before we went to a museum. Wewhen a man walked up to me and asked if I had a few dollars to give him. I replied that I didn't even have one coin on me., my kids stood up and said, "Yes, you do, Mommy." I was a little embarrassed because I felt as if they caught me not telling the truth. Normally, I don't carry lots of money in my pocket. Instead, I payeverywhere I go.

    So I told the man I could use my bank card to buy him something to eat. His disappointing expression quickly . Then I went to get him some kinds of food. He thanked me when I handed him a bag of food. After he left, I had a talk with my children, "Usually, I don't always like giving money to everyone who. However, I am not against meeting the needs of others as long as I have it." I felt good knowing that the man had a nice meal that evening.

Dad us the airport this morning.

    We all dream about life in the future. What do you think it will be like?

    Predicting the future is very difficult. Who could imagine, in the 1970s, for example, that by the end of the 20th century, computers would be as common in people's homes as TV sets?

    Robots seem very new to most people. You may see them in some films. In the future, they usually help people do dangerous, difficult or boring jobs. We don't have to do things like washing the dishes or making the beds.

    The Earth will also be an easy place to live. There will be fewer cars, less pollution and more trees in the future. We will have more free time. Everything will be free. We will be able to do shopping without money. Doctors will be able to keep us alive for a long time. There will be more e-schools. Children will study at home on the Internet. They won't go to school every day.

    In the future, will people fly into space and spend their holiday on the Moon? Or will we live under the sea? Who can say all the things won't come true? I think anything is possible.
