　　Can feeling of nostalgia(怀旧)be good for you?Or is it unhealthy to have a strong love for the past?

　　For years, medical experts(专家)have studied nostalgia and the reasons for it．Many experts say that too much nostalgia is harmful．They also say living in the past shows that a person is unhappy with his present life．These feelings keep the person from living his life to its fullest．

　　However, experts say it is normal to love the past sometimes．In fact, a little nostalgia can enrich a person's life．

　　Dr Louise Kaplan has written several books about nostalgia．She says these feelings often begin when a young person is between 13 and 19 years old．

　　“This is the time when you must face the loss of your childhood,”Kaplan says．“You see your life is easily destroyed．But you think about a golden past．You remember your childhood as a time when life was perfect(完美)．These feelings continue as a person gets older．”

　　Kaplan says these feelings are not always actually existing(存在)．The good old days weren't always good．However, she says nostalgia can be helpful, if used properly．

　　“Feeling of nostalgia can cause you to remember a time when you had high hopes and dreams,”Kaplan says．“It might give you the strong wish to catch those dreams today, in your present life．”She adds that nostalgia can prevent you from cutting yourself off from you aim．

阿波罗号登月引起全球性的对于外太空的探索热潮。以下是三位同学对于这个话题的探讨。

　　Anyhow, in my opinion, er…how to say, the chances that there is life on Mars are very slim．You know, er, you know the environment there is very harsh and I can't see any chances that there are beings on it．Besides, we know that 95 percent of the air there is carbon dioxide．People cannot, er, people cannot breathe there．There is no oxygen．

　　You said what?You said there was no oxygen, no water on Mars?Well, listen to me, Barney, you know what Mars looks like?Red!Right!It's red!And, you know why it is red?I bet you don't．I tell you it's the RUST!What makes the iron rusty?The iron and the oxygen!!Scientists find rust does exist on Mars．If there were rust, there would be oxygen!If there were oxygen, then water must exist there!

　　I do believe you, Gary．But it means nothing about our topic today!Yes, rust consists of oxygen, but, well, it is not the direct proof to support that there is life!Cause we never saw any life of them!I won't believe it unless I see with my own eyes; only then, I shall believe there is life on Mars．However, the rust is a new idea．And, to be frank, if there were no other beings in the Milk Way, or in the universe, what a great waste it would be!You know the universe is very large, larger than you can imagine．If there are only we, the human beings, there, how lonely we are!

　　What will the future be like?It's possible that we may often fly up into space!Out of all the coolest inventions of the year, Time chose Spaceship One as the best．

　　Spaceship One is a 6-meter-long white spaceship．On June 21st, American pilot Mike Melvill flew it to space and back－about 100 kilometers up into the sky．(1) Some might say it's not a big deal．You know, people went to the moon years ago．

　　Well, Spaceship One is special because(2)it is the first spaceship that wasn't made by the government．It was built and launched(发射)by a private US company．Lots of people want to travel in space．But it's too expensive．American millionaire Dennis Tito paid almost ＄20 million to become the first space tourist to visit the International Station in 2001．So private companies began to think of making their own spaceship to take other tourists up into space．

　　(3)飞船一号的成功是一个好的开端。In the next 10 to 15 years, if you pay ＄20,000 to ＄100,000, you could fly high above the earth．

　　What about having your own spaceship in your garage and taking it to space at the weekend?
