13.Let us suppose it is now about A.D.2060.let's make believe it is about fifty years from now.of course,things have changed and life is very different.
Voyages to the moon are being made every day.It is as easy to take a holiday on the moon today as it was for the people in 1960 to take a holiday in Europe.At a number of scenic spots on the moon,many hotels have been built.The hotels are air-conditioned,naturally.In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon,every room has at least one picture window.Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment of young and old.
What are people eating now?People are still eating food.They haven't yet started to take on heir(继承) supply of energy directly as electrical current or as nuclear power.They may some day.But many foods now come in pill form,and the food that goes into the pill continues to come mainly from green plants.
Since there are several times as many people in the world today as there were a hundred years ago,most of our planet's surface has to be filled.The deserts are irrigated(灌溉) with water and crops are no longer destroyed by pests.The harvest is always good.
Farming,of course,is very highly developed.Very few people have to work on the farm.It is possible to run the farm by just pushing a few buttons now and then.
People are now largely vegetarians(素食者).You see,as the number of people increases,the number of animal decreases.Therefore,the people have to be vegetarians and we ar e healthier both in our bodies and in our minds,and we know the causes and cure of disease and pain,and it is possible to get rid of diseases.No one has to be ill any more.
Such would be our life in 2060.

20.A.You are only allowed to puxchase a firearm if you have had a background check and meet certain legal requirements.
B.There have been many enlightening articles on gun control in America.
C.If you were to visit the United States for two months the only gun you might see is in a museum or on a police officer.
D.Less than fifty percent of homes in the United States own weapons,and many of those homes are in rural areas where guns may have a greater use.
E.More people are deciding to legalize their gun transactions instead of buying them on the black market.
F.What alarms people the most about American gun culture are the illegal guns and shooting,which make some places feel unsafe.

Guns have a special place in American culture,and though not everyone agrees on whether or not they are a good thing,there is no mistaking that they will be part of the cultural landscape for some time.To answer the question,no,not everyone has a gun.(67)D
Americans use guns for one of two uses:either for sport,where they can use them on firing ranges or for hunting in approved areas,or for self-protection.The latter is where most people begin to take sides,either arguing for the removal of guns from society or allowing more people to have them.There are organizations and community groups for both sides and both sides have strong feelings.
Legally,there are restrictions on gun owners.(68)A Only certain kinds of weapons can be purchased by the public,and that excludes automatic weapon and military grade weaponry.Gun owners must transport their weapon in a safe way,unloaded and in most cases,out of sight.Special"concealed carry"permits from the police station must be obtained for people who want to wear weapon,and most people are rejected for this kind of permit.(69)F Criminals steal guns or buy them illegally to commit crimes,and the news is full of terrible stories of what happened next.Occasionally a child will get a hold of legal weapon and accidentally hurt themselves or others.
It is important to remember,however,that the news stories that make the United States seem like a dangerous place are deceiving; guns arc not everywhere or constant.(70)C After all,America is a safe place to live.
3.I was on vacation,and in my mind,vacation does not mean setting my hotel room alarm clock for 6am.But when you're in Aruba and hoping to reserve a beachside palapa(简陋草棚),that's exactly what you do.
Tourists begin lining up at the crack of dawn to secure these umbrella-like wood structures that are covered with dried and woven palm leaves.They then place towels on chairs and call them theirs for the day,whether they remain there or not.I knew nothing of this beach code of ethics on my first day in Aruba.I saw an empty chair covered with a towel and took it.It was a big mistake.
For many visitors,a week bathing in the sun is the only activity they wish to pursue.It sounded good to my girlfriend,Barbara,and me after Boston's awful winter.Six more inches of snow was predicted on the day we left.The sun,the sand,and the beach seemed just about right.
Aruba's slogan is"One Happy Island",and it doesn't take long to understand why.Aruba is said to be on"island time".Translation:No one is in a rush to do anything.When in Aruba,you go with the flow,however slow and lazy that might be.
Cooling trade winds,white sandy beaches,turquoise(蓝绿色)waters,and dazzling sunsets are all good reasons to visit.But this 20-mile island offers more than lazy days walking on the beach.There is amazing night life,casinos,golf,scuba diving(水肺潜水),fine dining,shopping,and a great national park.
But our first day was spent as you'd expect,swimming in the sea and enjoying cool drinks.Our drink of choice quickly became the Coco Loco.It's as refreshing as it sounds.

C.He went scuba diving.
D.He visited a national park.
