I don' t know if I am missing the greatest pleasure of my life. I am no fan of computer games. Some guys forget themselves and forget day and night when they play games. For example, a colleague has been playing since 1 o’clock this morning and now it is 7 o'clock. He is still commanding his army of little people to attack strange-looking animals. Some games could be fun, 1 admit, and it is therefore understandable that such a game catches players. For example, games like Red Storm or some role-play games, you do something and try to outwit(智胜) your computer. You get some fun out of these games. It is understandable that such a game pushes you into a pitfall(陷阱) of pleasures. But some games look quite stupid and simple. Again for example, my colleague has been interested in Stone Age, a cartoon-like game rooted in prehistoric time. The game is well made, full of strange people and animals and you can play on line with partners. You can have reference books to study so as to shortcut your rivals(对手) and increase your own conquering power.

I believe some kinds of games are really created for adults. But seeing these adults play the simple games with such interest, I just wonder if there is something wrong with me and if I am losing the greatest possible fun of my life. I ask why I don' t bother playing such games and why I seem to have some aversion(讨厌) to such games. I have no answers. Certainly computer games is no my idea of a good time. I would rather listen to some music or read a book. Take music for example. Good music tops my list of pleasures. Nothing could beat music, all in a harmony of sounds and emotions. But how about games? Why an I so strongly biased(偏见) against such games?

A historic journey across the Solar System reached its end on Friday as a little probe (探测器)took a big step for human knowledge.

The US $ 3 billion Cassini-Huygens mission(使命), a joint project of NASA and the European and Italian space agencies was launched in 1997 from Cape Canaveral, Florida, to study Saturn, its rings, its moons and its magnetosphere(磁层) - which surrounds it.

Huygens was named after the Dutch scientist who discovered Titan in 1655, NASA officials said. Some science team members monitoring the flight at the European Space Agency's Space Operations Centre in Darmstadt, Germany, have waited tens of years to see the first of 750 pictures and other scientific readings from the yellow- skied moon.

" I have been in this mission almost 21 years and I' m very excited," ESA mission manager Jean -Pierre LeBreton said at a news conference on Thursday.

“I’m also quite sure we arc going to see something very special tomorrow (on Friday) "

Timers inside the probe will awaken it just before it enters Titan's atmosphere. Huygens is shaped like a wok(锅) and covered with a heat shield(防护装置) so that it can survive the extreme heat that it will face upon entry. It will then unfold a series of parachutes to slow its fall to the moon's reddish surface, expected to take about 2.5 hours.

As it goes down, the probe will lose its heat shield and unfold its special camera and instruments to

begin collecting information on wind speeds and the makeup of Titan's atmosphere. This is the moment

scientists have been waiting for. This data will then be sent back to Cassini, which will relay it to NASA’s Deep Space Network in California and on to ESA controllers in Darmstadt　 German. Scientists believe the organic chemical reaction taking place on Titan are similar to the process that gave rise to life on Earth.

Its atmosphere is mostly nitrogen, like Earth, but its surface temperature of about minus 180℃ makes it improper to life.

Titan, believed to be the only moon in the solar system with an atmosphere, is larger than the planets Mercury and Pluto.

Among the most heatedly discussed issues about the Chinese film industry in 2004 was probably the absence of a film rating system - claimed to be a vital part of the upcoming China Motion Picture Industry Promotion Law.

The law is expected to offer a legal basis for a wide range of issues that worried the local film industry including copyright infringement(侵犯), online piracy(侵权) of films and pirated films in such forms as VCDs, DVDs, and most recently the so - called compressed DVDs.

"The film rating or classification system is very common for film producers, distributors and exhibitors worldwide, as many countries and regions adopted such systems decades ago," said Li Ershi, a Chinese film historian with the Beijing Film Academy.

"The Chinese public and film industry have long called for the establishment of such a law," he added.

Over the years, Chinese films have been put into categories according to their subject matters such as rural, military, industry or urban themes.

On March 1, 1989, the former administration of the Ministry of Radio, Film, and Television issued the Circular Concerning the Examination and Rating System for Certain Films that roughly specified(指定)four types of films as "unsuitable for child audiences."

The regulation was first applied to a controversial film entitled "Widow Village", which features some love scenes.

But this rating system didn't work very well in protecting child audiences at local level.

Over the years, it has often been reported that some film distributors and exhibitors even label some films as "unsuitable for child audiences" in a bid to attract curious viewers.

Since 1994, China has introduced many Western popular films, many of which were rated "PG'' for "Parental Guidance" in the USA but shown in Chinese cinemas without any labels, especially for teenagers or younger children, because China does not have a film rating system. Li said.
