Linda and David have traveled by air from London to Sydney, Australia. Linda has promised(答应)her mother that she will ring her to let her know that they have arrived safely. This is something she had done ever since she was a child. David thinks it is not a good idea to ring so far, to spend too much ,and to say so little.
"If there were an accident." He says, “they’d know soon enough . Bad news travels fast.”
But Linda has promised that she would ring . "However," she says, "it doesn’t cost much when you just think that it′s the other side of the world.It’s only six pence per second (每秒六便士)。"
"If you′re on that telephone for less than one minute, I’ll eat my hat, David says," And one minute’s nearly four pounds(英镑)."
"That‘s no more than you’d pay for a new hat," Linda answers.
She has asked the man at the hotel (旅馆) desk to get her the number . The telephone rings.Linda picks it up.
"Hello, Mum .Is that you ?" She says.
"Six pence per second ," David reminds(提醒) her.
“Hello, love.” It is Mrs Lee, Linda’s mother, speaking from London. "I can hear you very clearly just like you are in the next room .It′s a better line than when you called me from your office. Do you remember? I shouted at that time ,and still you couldn’t hear me sometimes."
"Yes ,Mum ."Linda puts in.. "I just wanted to ring to ……."
"I remember how you rang when you went to Betty‘s house to eat , when you were a little girl.And then when you …" Mrs Lee is a great talker
"Nearly four pounds." says David.
Linda tries to tell her mother that it is time to say goodbye.
"Yes, all right, "says Mrs Lee ," But you will write, won′t you, as you did when you were at work …"
Once again, Mrs Lee talks about the pass.and there is no stopping her.
“Four pounds fifty,”says David.
At last, Linda cuts her mother short, promises to write, and rings off.
"There! That wasn′t long, was it ?"
" Four pounds, ninety pence." David answers. " And you didn’t even say that we′ve arrived."

Astronauts have already visited the moon and lived on space stations. They' ve never been to another planet, but they might visit Mars soon. The astronauts will spend about six months traveling to the planet, then about two years on the planet and about six months traveling back to the earth. They' ll be away from the earth for about three years, so they' 11 need a lot of food !
It' s very expensive to take food into space. It costs about 120,000 dollars to carry something that weighs one kilogram. So an apple on Mars could cost 20,000 dollars! Of course, they will need to take quite a lot of food with them to feed the astronauts for three years. This amount of fresh food can not stay fresh, and is very expensive to take, so they need to find food that is not very heavy.
At the moment, astronauts on space stations eat dried food. It's very light, so it doesn't cost a lot of money to carry it into space. But astronauts stay healthier and happier if they eat fresh food. In the future, astronauts on Mars may grow vegetables like lettuce, spinach and carrots.
Astronauts on Mars will probably have special machines. They' ll use these machines to change beans into foods that taste like meat or cheese because it won' t be possible to keep animals in space.
