stop    potato    fill    they    get    fall    late    boy    many    quick

Sometimes people's words are not easily understood.

A man learned this lesson. He had been working late collecting  and piling(堆)them high on his wagon(马车).

Towards the end of the day, his wagon was  with potatoes. He decided to head home, for it was  late. He wished to know how long it would take to get back to his village so that he could arrive before darkness  .

He noticed a small boy along the roadside and  to ask for directions.

"Young boy," he said, "it's  and I must get home soon. How long will it take to get to my village from here?"

The boy answered, "If you go slowly, it will take only a short while for you to get home. But if you go  , it will take a long time and you will not get there until late in the night.”

The man thought about the  answer, but he could not understand it. He gave the boy an angry look and hit his horse to make it hurry. The horse began to run quickly. But soon, potatoes began to fall from the wagon. Each time, the man got off to collect the fallen potatoes and put  back into his wagon.

The faster he went, the  potatoes fell from his wagon, and the more time he had to spend stopping to pick them up. But, if he had travelled slowly, none of the potatoes would have fallen, and the man would have arrived home much earlier.

And so, as the young boy warned, go slowly and it will take only a short while.

One day a poor man was walking along from house to house. He carried an old wallet in one hand and at every house he asked for a little money to buy something to eat. As he was complaining about his misfortune (不幸), he kept wondering why some people who had so much money were never satisfied and always wanted more.

He thought that if he only had enough money to buy food and clothing, he would be very happy and wouldn't want anything more.

At that moment, Fortune came down the street. She saw the poor man and stopped. She said to him. "I want to help you. Hold out your wallet and I will pour this gold into it, but only on this condition. All that falls into your wallet will be gold, but all that hits the ground will turn into sand. Do you understand?

"Oh, yes I understand," said the poor man,

"Your wallet is old. Don't put too much in it," said Fortune.

The poor man opened his wallet and a lot of gold was poured into it. His wallet grew heavy.

"You are the richest man in the world now," said Fortune. "I think you should stop! Your wallet is going to break!"

However, the poor man said he wanted one more handful. Fortune added one more handful and the wallet broke. All the gold fell to the ground and turned into sand. The poor man had nothing but his empty wallet. He was as poor as he had been before.

Read the comments about changes in the future. How much do you agree with them?

                                                                                                             

The days, some people work at home one or two days a week instead of going to an office every day. I think in the future a lot more people will work from home all the time. And the number of offices will decrease. It's sad, because people will lose most of their sskills like the ability to connect to others.

There won't be any paper books in the future. They might disappear c. If you want to read books, you will have to download them to a portable e-reader. It will hold hundreds of your favourtie books. Some e-readers might also be waterproof. So you can use them when you are having a bath or a s!

I think the number of people on the planet will continue to i. There'll be less space, so we'll need to change the way we live. Maybe we'll live underground, or maybe lots of people will live together in a single house. It's horrible! Life will definitely get wthan it is now!

Our house might be sin the future. If there's an emergency, it will automatically send a message to the police or call for an ambulance. Our house might also control the heating and the air-conditioning, so we'll never feel too hot or too cold.

Driverless cars are a new thing at the moment, but I think in the future it will be common to have one. I think it'll be a good and safe thing, because we won't have so many road a. Maybe we will stop using petrol, too. That would be good.
