24、 When you argue (争辩) with your friend, will you shout at him or her? Why or why not?
A wise old man saw his grandson having an argument with his wife. He asked his grandson, “Why do you raise your voice every time you argue with your wife?”
His grandson answered, “I raise my voice so that my voice is heard.”
“Your wife is close enough for her to hear you when you say the same sentence in a calm manner. Why do you have to raise your voice?” the grandfather asked.
“Perhaps because I need to let off some steam (宣泄感情) by raising my voice,” his grandson replied.
“The steam will go out in the same way if you whisper to her. So why is that?”
“Or because I lose my patience (耐心) when she doesn’t understand my point of view,” the man said unwillingly.
“Perhaps, but that is not the real reason why you raise your voice. The real reason is that when you are angry with your wife, your heart moves away from her heart. So even though you are physically close to each other, you feel that you are far away from one another. You feel like you have to shout,” the grandfather replied.
“So what should I do to solve this?” the grandson asked.
“When two people are in love, their hearts are close to each other. If you whisper softly, you can both hear each other clearly. This is how you should talk to each other,” the grandfather replied.

25、Amy was looking for a gift for her little daughter. She stopped in front of a store full of dolls.
“Girls like dolls,” she thought as she stepped into the store. Looking around, she saw a grandma doll – one with gray hair and a pair of glasses. It made her think of Joyce, her own mother.
When Amy was a little girl, she got her first doll from Joyce for her birthday. Then the second, the third... the dolls never arrived late, year after year. “Why always a doll?” This question had been in Amy’s mind until one day her father gave the answer. Joyce dreamed of having a doll when she was a child herself. Her parents promised one for her fifth birthday. Sadly, they both died in a traffic accident before it arrived. The never-received gift was the most precious one in her eyes.
Recalling her mother’s story, Amy got an idea. It was Joyce’s 60th birthday. She got a package with a card that read:
Dear Joyce,
I forget to send you a package that you should have received on May 20, 1956, your fifth birthday.
The gift inside has aged, but I felt that you might still want to have it.
Love,
Angel of Joy
Joyce opened the package and saw a lovely grandma doll. She clasped the doll that she had waited so many years for, with tears running down her face. The doll, given by her “Angel of Joy”, made her the happiest “child” in the world.

26、In the year 2070, most of you will be more than 50 years old. The good news is that travel might become smarter by that time. To catch people’s eyes and increase the numbers of passengers, European airline (航空公司) easyJet has made some predictions and released (发布) easyJet 2070: The Future Travel Report. Let’s take a look at some mind-blowing ideas.
Have a heartbeat passport. Paper passport will be a thing of the past. You will use “heartbeat passport” instead. According to experts, the machine will count how many times the heart beats in a minute, then it will tell who you are. It doesn’t work hard because everyone’s heart beats differently.
Enjoy more comfortable flight. The seats on the plane are only one size, which can’t make passengers fulfilled. But in the future you’ll be able to book a seat according to your body type. The seat might even be able to cool or warm you if you want. There will also be no more screens on the back of the seats. A special light from the seat could show the latest movies straight in front of your eyes.
Bring history back to life. If you like to visit great places of interest, the AR glasses will help you enjoy the journey. By wearing the AR glasses, you can see what happened at a historic place, such as a famous battle (战役). You may even be able to sit among the cheering people at the first Olympic Games.
Are you looking forward to having those changes in the year 2070? What other changes do you think about during the flight?
【1】What’s the purpose of making easyJet 2070?
A.To develop the airline history.
