―Most people can see if someone is comfortable with them or not in their eyes. I see it in their feet.‖ he said. ―If people keep moving their feet, I just let them go, because I know they‘re impatient with me. I don‘t want to make people uncomfortable.
―What about me? I asked.
―I could see your compassion. And then you came down to my level. I was the one who was nervous.‖ he said. ―I don‘t normally have someone look me in the eye.‖
―They don‘t know what they‘re missing,‖ I told him. ―My old face is nothing to brag(自夸) about.‖ he said. ―But that smile is so big.‖

JOHN BROWN
Makes and Sells Hats

Prana was a beautiful dog, whose name means ―breath of life‖. Although he died several years ago, I can still remember the days we spent together and what he has taught me about love.
I have two apple trees in the garden. Prana loved apples. When he went outside, he‘d catch an apple and take it into the house to eat later. The apples had been on the ground and were often dirty so I wasn‘t always happy that Prana had brought them into the house.
It was an autumn day in America, but it was very cold. A big snow fell and we had not done anything for its coming. On that special day, Prana went outside and I watched him through the window. I noticed that he was madly digging(挖) holes and bringing the apples to the ground so they could be seen above the snow. I did not know why he was doing this. He seemed to want to do something special.
When I called him back, he had his usual one apple in his mouth. About five minutes later, I looked outside. The garden was completely covered with birds. Prana had dug up all those apples for his bird friends to eat. He knew that they wouldn‘t have stored enough food for the coming winter!

What might the future be like? Here are some predictions: things to come, things to go.
The Spring Festival, the most important Chinese holiday when everyone returns home, has caused headaches for millions of Chinese. More than 2 billion people travel at the same time, making getting travel tickets and the journey difficult. But in 28 years, Spring Festival travel may not be a problem at all. China plans to build more than 120,000 kilometers of railway and a fast transportation network that will serve 90% of the population by 2020. And because most of China will be cities, people will not have to go to other places to find a job, so it will no longer be a problem.
Newspaper will come to an end in 2043. In the future, digital(数字的) newspapers will be sent to personal web tools through Internet. Readers can discuss topics with journalists and editors. Information will move faster.
Oil is running out faster than expected. But scientists have found something else for oil as fuel(燃料). Coal, natural gas, solar power, nuclear power and even water can take the place of oil as sources of energy(能源).
Schools will go electronic(电子化). Computers will be important and popular among the students. Everything will be in the computer and students will not need to bring books to school. They will find information on the Internet. A computer will be the students‘ library, schoolbag and connection to the outside world.
