    Valerie noticed that her daddy was going bald day by day. This worried her.

    "Daddy, every day you have less hair. Why is that?"

    Her father smiled, "Round here there's a little hair thief, and he visits my head during the night. He pulls out my hairs as many as he likes. And nobody can catch him!"

    That night, Valerie stayed awake. As soon as she heard her father's first snoring (打鼾), she took a hammer (锤子)and went into her parents' bedroom. Being afraid of the thief running away, she slowly tiptoed in. When she arrived, she began to watch her father's head carefully, hoping to catch the hair thief as soon as he appeared. Before long, she saw a shadow on her daddy's head. With all her strength, she swung the hammer down.

    Thwack! Her father yelped and jumped out of his bed. The lump (肿块) on his head was already big, and growing. He turned the light on, and saw Valerie holding her hammer in the air.

    "I nearly got him, Daddy! I thought I hit him, but it looks like he escaped!"

    Meanwhile, they woke Valerie's mother up. Seeing the lump on her husband's head, she laughed out loud. "Well, that's what happens when you tell silly stories, "she said.

    So Valerie's father had to explain to her that the hair thief didn't exist, and that going bald is something that just happens naturally to most daddies. There he sat, realizing how important it was not to tell children tall tales. And Valerie still worried about her daddy, but she did something else. She bought her daddy a very nice sleeping hat.

    Have you watched movies that take place in the future? You may have seen people travelling in lying cars or using spacecraft to explore other planets. These movies could be showing us what air and space travel will be like in the future.

    Imagine the year is 2040. Your new jetpack will take you to the store. A jetpack is something that a person straps on like a backpack. Fuel and air are burned in an engine. Then hot air is forced out of the exhaust, or the bottom of the jetpack. This thrusts (用力推)the person wearing the jetpack up into the air. A person wearing a jetpack can fly.

    There are jetpacks that have already been made. One jetpack can stay up in the air for minutes. It has a range of 30 miles.

    Most experts think that jetpacks would not be good for everyday travel. A group of scientists has started a project called myCopter. The group is studying very small aircraft and wants to know if the use of tiny aircraft could be possible in the future.

    The group is thinking about how the tiny aircraft could work. The owners of the aircraft won't be trained pilots. Experts want to build aircraft that fly together. Each aircraft could send out signals to other aircraft nearby. This will help keep the aircraft from getting too close to each other. The owner of the aircraft will choose the main direction. But the aircraft will mostly be controlled by a computer on the aircraft.
