【题目】Would you like to live in a city where buildings turn the lights off for you, and selfdriving cars will find the nearest parking space themselves? Although it might sound a little far from you, living in a “smart” city like this could happen sooner than you think.

Great changes have taken place in towns that we have lived in for centuries, while completely new cities are being built. One such place is the city of Songdo. Every home there will have a “telepresence” system(远程遥控系统)—allowing users to control the heating and looks, take part in video meetings, and receive education, health care and government services. Around the city, escalators(自动扶梯) will only move when someone is on them, and offices and schools will all be connected to the system.

The great mind behind Songdo is from the company Cisco. In fact, technology companies around the world such as IBM, Siemens and Microsoft are already in the business.

About 75% of the world’s population will live in cities by 2050, so cities will need to be more modern to deal with the coming problems. “Making cities smarter is one way out, and I think this will in turn make cities greener,” said Dan Hill, head of a research company.

This morning we had a school trip to the Dashan Collection House, a building of two floors. It is open from 9: 00 am to 5: 00 pm. We took the school bus and arrived at 9: 00. When we entered the collection house, our eyes were caught by a collection of old photos of the town on the walls of the front hall. Those photos told us something about the history of the town. And then in the Art Room, we saw many pictures of the countryside. The colors of the flowers and trees are rich and bright. We all love the beauty of nature at once.

Then we went upstairs. On the left. there were over one hundred different clocks. The oldest clock was already more than two hundred years old. To my surprise, the clocks all worked well and they could tell the right time. It was then ten o’clock, and some clocks produced different beautiful sounds. It seemed to be a concert. How amazing！

On the right there was also a stone collection. The stones were from all over the country. They were in different sizes, colors and shapes. Some looked like different kinds of animals. I really liked one stone that looked like a little monkey. It looked very nice.

Everyone, rich or poor, can have happiness. You don’t need to think too much about those who are rich. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who drive their cars to work may want to walk on country roads in their free time. In fact, happiness is always around you. When you are in trouble, your friends will come to help and this will surely make you happy; when you study hard at your lessons, you will get good grades and of course you will feel happy about it; when you are not feeling well, your parents will take good care of you and you will be happy when you are well again. All these are your happiness. When you are poor, you also can say you are happy because you may have something else that money can’t buy. When you have problems, say loudly that you are happy as you have more chances to challenge(挑战) yourself so that you can succeed in what you do and this may bring you happiness. Take every chance you get and you can be a happy and lucky person.
