I didn’t think I had a passion(激情). I would sit in front of the TV all day, thinking about nothing but the next show.

It was not long ago that I first learned how important having a passion is to life.

On that day I went with my mum to drive my sister to the gym. I was bored. Then, as my mum stopped at a red light, s 1. on the side of the road caught my eye. It was a man dressed in rags (衣衫褴褛). He was homeless. That didn’t interest me, for I had seen many like him b2. .

But in some ways he was d 3. . This man was not sitting down with a sad expression. He had a radio in his hand and was dancing h 4. to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious(珍贵)thing he had.

“ Mum, why does that man have A、radio even thought he’s homeless?” I asked.

“He bought it,” she replied.

“But if he’s homeless, why doesn’t he use the money to buy food or clothes? He w 5. it on something he doesn’t need.”

“Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’t the most important things. We need happiness, too.”

If you knew a bottle of water had been recycled from urine (尿), would you drink it? Astronauts at the International Space Station (ISS) may soon do so. NASA (美国航空航天局) said it would use a high-tech machine (高科技机器) to recycle wastewater at the ISS. The machine will recycle everything from sweat (汗), the water for washing hands, shower water, water used for brushing teeth, and even urine, to make drinking water.

It will save NASA millions of dollars each year. At present, each ISS astronaut uses about 4.4 liters (升) of water every day. It costs about $24 million a year to transport water up to ISS. NASA says that a liter of water costs about $11,000.

The machine will be sent to the ISS in October 2008. NASA hopes it will recycle about 93% of all water used on the station. Will the water be clean? Scientists say the wastewater will go through a very complicated process (复杂的过程). For example, different chemicals will be put in the wastewater; the water will be heated to 130℃to get rid of bacteria (细菌). The recycled water is thousands of times better than the water from a city tap, scientists say.
