I still remember my first job in the city center. The        was large, dark and old        the physics lecture room was on the second floor.        , it wasn’t a lecture room at all, it was an ordinary room, but it had “LECTURE ROOM’ on the       . The students were sixteen or seventeen years old,        several years younger than me.       , some of them looked and acted       older than me sometimes.

The room was directly       the street, and had the window looking out over the street and many houses. One day, I was       some words on the blackboard when I heard a sudden change in the noise behind me. There was a man standing in the room with       an apple in his hand. He looked      .

“Who threw this?” he asked, looking round the class.

“I beg your pardon? What is the matter?” I said. “      threw this apple out of the window,” he said. “It       on my car.”

 “Who threw an apple out of the window?” I       to the class. There was no answer.

“I       the fellow who threw this.” said the man. “I will be       outside for you.” And then he left, closing the door behind him.

      was silence and I continued with the lesson. At the end of every lesson, usually the class were all       before the bell finished ringing, leaving me saying “That’s all for today” to an empty     .  This time, when the bell went for the end of the lesson, no one      .  “That’s all for today,” I said. “You go first, sir,” said one of the boys. It made a nice change, I being out first.

Our Future Homes

　What kinds of homes will we live         the future? Nobody can be sure,         architects, and scientists are         new ideas now.

　　Some architects are thinking about          whole cities under huge glass domes. Of course, complicated heating and        systems will be necessary to control the climate in the domes.        , there will never be any rain      snow, and the temperature will be always        .

　　Perhaps everyone will live in vertical（立体的）       . High rises are so large that they can contain all the necessities of life. Since vertical cities will use        land than horizontal cities, and provide homes for more people, they will be       for small countries that have      populations.

Another idea that will be helpful to        countries (and island countries) is

the      city. Monaco has already built homes, stores, and offices         the water of the Mediterranean Sea. And a Japanese       has made a plan for constructing buildings on bridges over Tokyo Bay.

　　There are some people who think we will go back to living in       . But the caves of the future will be quite      the caves of the Stone Age. Computers will control light and climate. Farms and parks will be on the land      the cave city. When people want to go to the country or to a park, a short ride in       will take them there.

I ran into(偶然撞到) a stranger as he passed by. “I'm so sorry ！”was my reply. Then he said, “Excuse me too. I wasn't even __36__ you.” we were very polite, this stranger and I.

One summer day my father sent me to buy wire for our farm. At 16, I liked 1better than driving our truck, 2this time I was not happy. My father had told me I’d have to ask for credit(赊账) at the store.

Sixteen is a 3age, when a young man wants respect, not charity. It was 1976, and the ugly 4of racial discrimination was 5a fact of life. I’d seen my friends ask for credit and then stand, head down, while the store owner 6whether they were “good for it.” I knew black youths just like me who were 7like thieves by the store clerk each time they went into a grocery.

The requirements for high school graduation have just changed in my community. As a result, all students must   36   sixty hours of service learning,   37   they will not receive a diploma（文凭）.    38    of service learning include cleaning up a polluted river, working in a soup kitchen, or tutoring a student. During a service experience, students must keep a journal and then write a   39   about what they have learned.

Supporters state that there are many   40  of service learning. Perhaps most importantly, students are forced to think   41 their own interests and become aware of the needs of others. Students are also able to learn real-life skills that   42  responsibility, problem-solving, and working as part of a team. Finally, students can explore possible careers 43   service learning.

For example, if a student wonders what teaching is like, he or she can choose to work in a primary school classroom a few afternoons each month.  44   there are many benefits, opponents （反对者） point out problems with the new requirement. First, they   45  that ,because service learning is time-consuming, students spend   46   time studying the core subjects. Second, they believe that forcing students to work without   47   goes against the law.

In my view, service learning is a great way to   48   to the community, learn new skills, and explore different careers.  49   , I don' t believe you should force people to help others – the  50   to help must come from the heart. I think the best solution is one that gives students choices. Choice encourages both freedom and responsibility.
