         Hi! My name's Wang Mang. I'm fifteen years old, and I'm a Grade 3 student in Shangjing in the year
2053!    
        I expect you find that pretty hard to believe. Let me explain. This book is a journal I wrote last month for
a very special competition. I won the first prize, which was that my book would become part of the first ever
experiment in time travel. It would be put in a time capsule to be sent back almost fifty years into the past. So,
if everything went according to the plan, you should be reading this in about the year 2005.
        Do you know what time capsules are? They are usually containers made of some very strong material so
strong that it should last for hundreds or thousands of years without being destroyed. Inside these containers,
you put things that are typical of the place in which you live. For example, in 2005 you might put a copy of a
popular comic, a CD by a famous musician, videos of television programmes-all sorts of things. The idea is that
when people in another century open up the time capsule. They'll be able to see what life was like in the past.
        Until now, all time capsules have been left for people in the future to find. This one is the first that has been
sent from the future to the past. I don't understand how it's going to be done, but I think it's a really cool idea. If
it works, my own grandparents will be able to read this when they were secondary school students! But if my
grandparents did read this, why haven't they ever mentioned it to me?
1. If we believe what the passage says, this book was written ______.
[     ]
A. last month
B. about fifty years ago
C. in the future
D. by a time traveler
2. Time capsules are usually _______.
[     ]
A. hundreds or thousands of years old
B. made by people in another century
C. sent back in time to people in the past
D. containers holding objects typical of a certain time and place
3. The main purpose of most time capsules is to ______.
[     ]
A. show people in the past what life will be like in the future
B. show people in the future what life was like in the past
C. keep copies of old comics or CDs
D. store recording of old television programmes
4. The last sentence shows that Wang Mang finds the idea of time travel ______.
[     ]
A. confusing
B. exciting
C. uninteresting
D. cool
1. C      2. D       3. B        4. A

You probably know you should say “please” and “thank you” at restaurants. You probably know the rules of a library. You know you should respect and be nice to your classmates. But do you have music manners?
Keep It Down! You have to notice the volume of your music. You should not play your music so loud that everyone around you can hear it. Some people might even get angry. Usually, when you play the music loud on an MP3 player, other people can’t hear the words of the song. They just hear a loud sound. No one wants to listen to this. Very loud music can also be bad for your ears. So even if you are alone when listening to our MP3 players, you shouldn’t turn it up too high.
Take Them Off! You need to know when to turn your MP3 off and put it away. Libraries, and schools don’t allow MP3 players. There are other places, like museums, that don’t have rules, but it would be rude to have your MP3 player on. Sometimes, it doesn’t make sense to listen on your MP3 player at event. Why would you listen to music at a play, a movie or a sporting event? You would miss what is going on and others would wonder why you even came.
Take One Out! Once in a while it’s okay just to take out one earphone and not other. Imagine you are listening on your MP3 player when someone asks you the way. It would not be rude to take out one earphone, tell him the way, and put back the earphone and continue listening. You can also do this when you order food at a fast-food restaurant or when you answer the telephone and it’s not for you.
It’s Your Choice! There are times when you need to decide what is best. For example, some people can listen to music on their MP3 players when reading books, while others think it is disturbing. In cases like this, you need to do what seems right for you.
