       One day in September we were doing repair work on my parents’ old house to get it ready for my youngest daughter’s wedding. We had to  36  a great climbing plant that had grown  37  a roof beam（房梁），so that we could repair the roof and   38  the walls.

       When my husband was taking the plant away, he found a  39  of a blackbird that had made its home in the leaves. He then  40  something  41  among that mass of earth and straw of the nest. He broke the earth around it into pieces with his finger tips and, to his  42  ,saw glittering gold. It was a child’s bracelet（手镯）. He ran into the house to  43  me.

       “You won’t believe that the   44  blackbirds not only steal the best fruit we   45  to feed on,” he said,“but they also want their children to  46  in a cradle（摇摆）of gold!”

       When my daughter came over on the eve of the  47  ,we told her about this   48  occurrence.

       “Don’t you remember, Mother?” she said with a loud   49  .“When I was eight, you gave me a bracelet that I   50  a few days later while out playing in the yard? It was this one!”

       As the bracelet no longer  51  its owner and was dirty, I decided to take it into my safekeeping.

       In December of the following year, the young couple’s baby son was baptized（受洗礼）.Among the   52  the newborn baby received, I placed his mother’s bracelet, now shining like  53  . I hope that if my grandson  54  loses it, one of the   55  that live in my backyard is somewhere nearby.

Mark and his brother Jason both were looking at the shining new computer enviously. Jason was determined not to go against their father’s wishes but Mark was more adventurous than his brother. He loves experimenting and his aim was to become a scientist like his father.

“Dad will be really mad if he finds out you’ve been playing with his new computer” Jason said, “He told us not to touch it.”

“He won’t find out,” Mark said, “I’ll just have a quick look and shut it down.”

Mark had been scolded before for touching his father’s equipment. But his curiosity was difficult to control and this new computer really puzzled him.

It was a strange-looking machine — one his dad had brought home from the laboratory where he worked. “It’s an experimental model,” his father had explained, so don’t touch it under any circumstances.” But his father’s warning only served to make Mark more curious. Without any further thought, Mark turned on the power switch. The computer burst into life and seconds later, the screen turned into colours, shifting and changing, and then two big white words appeared in the centre of the screen: “SPACE TRANSPORTER.”

“Yes!” Mark cried excitedly, “It’s a computer game. I knew it! Dad’s only been pretending to work. He’s really been playing games instead!” A new message appeared on the screen:

“ENTER NAMES

VOYAGE　１

VOYAGE　２

Mark’s finger flew across the keyboard as he typed in both of their names.

“INPUT ACCEPTED.

START  TRANSPORT  PROGRAM.

AUTO-RETRIEVE  INITIATED(自动回收程序已启动).”

The screen turn even brighter and a noise suddenly rose in volume.

“I think we’d better shut it off, Mark,” Jason yelled out in terror, reaching for the power switch. A beam(光束) of dazzling white light burst out of the computer screen, wrapping the boys in its glow(光芒)，until they themselves seemed to be glowing. Then it died down just as suddenly as it had burst into life. And the boys were no longer there. On the screen, the letters changed：

“TRANSPORT SUCCESSFUL．

DESTINATION:  MARS.

RETRIEVE DATE:  2025

Life gets noisier every day and very few people can be free from noise of some sort or another. It doesn’t matter where you live－ in the middle of a modern city, or a faraway village the chances that you will be disturbed by jet planes , transistor radios, oil-powered engines, etc, are almost everywhere. We seem to be getting used to noise, too. Some people feel quite lonely without background music while they are working.

    Scientific tests have shown that total silence can be very frightening experience for human beings. However, some people enjoy listening to pop music which is very loud, and this can do harm to their eardrums (耳鼓). The noise level in some disco is far above the usual safety level for heavy industrial areas.

    One recent report about noise and concentration(专心) suggested that although a lot of people say that any noise disturbs their concentration , what really affects their ability to concentrate is a change in the level of noise. It goes on to say that a background noise, which doesn’t change too much (music, for example ) may even help people to concentrate.
