Comic Books, Yes and No?

  In our house, there are lots of comic(滑稽的) books. Some are on the table in the living room. Some are under my bed. Some are under Neal's bed.

  Neal is my brother. He is seven, two years younger than I am.

  Every Saturday we do our work first. Then mother lets each of us buy a comic book about animals or children.

  We can hardly wait to get home to read them! We lie on the floor between our bed. Everything is very quiet then-until we burst out laughing. Mom calls our laughs “explosions”. I guess they sound that way to her.

  Yesterday I heard Mrs. Easton ask Mom, “Do you really LET your boys read comic books? I must say I am surprised!” Mom said,“Of course I let them!” Then she said, “That is, I let them read comics about animals and children. Not all comic books are bad. Some are very good.”

  “I wonder why children like comic books?” Mrs. Easton asked.

  Mom laughed. “I really don't know,” she answered. “But we know they do!”

  Well, no one asked me. But I could tell Mrs. Easton and mother why we like comics!

  The ones Neal and I read are funny. The people and the animals in them are smart. They are not goody-goody (虚假的), the way they are in some stories.

  Comic books are something like space ships. They take Neal and me to the planet Mars or to a rabbit's house. They bring us old friends and new friends. Donald and Mickey and Bugs and Elmer seem like real people to us!

  We like comic books most of all because we never know what will happen next. In some books, you can always tell what's going to happen.

True or False

1.The stories in the comic books often make the two brothers very sad and angry.

2.The two brothers won't get new comic books before they finish doing their work every Saturday.

3.All the grown-ups know clearly why children like reading comic books.

4.The stories in comic books can take children to places they have wanted to and help them meet a lot of friends.

5.The two brothers like comic books best of all because they can always guess what will happen next.

  Hi!My name is Wang Ming.I’m fifteen years old, and I’m a Grade 3 student in Shanghai in the year 2053!

  I expect you find that pretty hard to believe.Let me explain.This book is a journal I wrote last month for a very special competition.I won the first prize, which was that my book would become part of the first ever experiment in time travel.It would be put in a time capsule to be sent back almost fifty years into the past.So, if everything went according to the plan, you should be reading this in about the year 2005.

  Do you know what time capsules are?They are usually containers made of some very strong material-so strong that it should last for hundreds or thousands of years without being destroyed.Inside these containers, you put things that are typical of the place in which you live.For example, in 2005 you might put a copy of a popular comic, a CD by a famous musician, videos of television programs-all sorts of things.The idea is that when people in another century open up the time capsule.They’ll be able to see what life was like in the past.

  Until now, all time capsules have been left for people in the future to find.This one is the first that has been sent from the future to the past.I don’t understand how it’s going to be done, but I think it’s a really cool idea.If it works, my own grandparents will be able to read this when they were secondary school students!But if my grandparents did read this, why haven’t they ever mentioned it to me?
