    　　We are now living in a time that science is developing at a great speed．With the development of science many countries have improved not only their economy but also their people’s living conditions．In our daily life we can get a lot of benefit from science．

    　　If we look at the things around us we’ll find how closely our daily life is connected with science．For example, at home we can turn on the central heating or air conditioner when we feel cold or hot, and we can watch TV or listen to the tape recorder for entertainment, and we can use a gas stove to cook our meals, and we have computers to help us with our work when we are working in the office, and we also have cars, buses, even airplanes as traffic tools when we go out．All these things are the results of the development of science．Without science our society cannot make rapid progress and our life cannot be comfortable and convenient．

    　　Since science is so important in our daily life, we should try to make as much contribution as possible to the development of science．As college students, we must first of all study hard to gain useful scientific knowledge, and then put what we have learned into practice．We should take advantage of science to serve our society．

    (1)

    We can use computers to help our work．

    B．

    C．

    (2)

    　　Getting paid to talk about the World Cup is a great job I’m not a football commentator(评论员),though-just an English teacher in japan．

    　　I came to japan two years ago, and didn't think I would stay, but japan has that effect on you. People after endup tiving bere longer than they planned

    I think it’s best to teach in a biggest eity where there are onther foreigners to mix with. Rather than a small town where English teachers often complain of feeling like a goldfish in a bovd Many people choose to live in Tokyo, of course, which is good for the nightlife factor. But I’d say that for geueral quality of living, cities of neither too large nor too small, like Sapporo where I live, are better choices．

    　　I teach English privately, which means I’m my own boss. If you want to devote yourself to private teaching, it’s well worth doing a TEFL eourse first. Beeause your lessons will be much better for it. The problem with private teaching is finding students; it took me a year to build up a full schedule(日程表)of private lessons, so I started out teaching in schools part time．

    　　Most of my foreign friends here work full-time for big English conversation schools. The salary is fine to live on. But whether you can save money depends on how much going out and traveling you do here．

    　　The schools are reluetam to take time off –even teachers with tichets for the England-Argentina game had trouble getting the day off．

    　　Modcm inventions have speeded up people's lives amazingly．Motor-cars cover a bundred miles in little more than an hour．Aireraft cross the world a day, while computers operate at lightning speed．Indeed, this love of speed seems never-ending．Every ycar motor-cars are produced which go even faster each new computer boasts(吹嘘)of saving preeious seconds in handling tasks．

    　　All this saves timc, but at a prick．When we lose or gain half a day in speeding aeross the world in an airplane, our bodies tell us so．We get the uncomfoerable feeling known as jet-lag; our bodies feel tlru they have been left bebind in anot ar nine zoors Again pending too long at compulers resul's in painti ninrts and fingers．Mobile phones also to dange according to some seientists; too much uss may thesmit h bul radiation into our brains, a we do not like to think about．

    　　Howave, what do we do with the time we have saved?Certainly not or so it seems．We are so accustomed to constant activity that we find it difficult to sit and do nothing, or even just one thing at a time．Pcrhaps the days are long gone when we might listen quietly to a story on the radio, letting imavination take us into another world．

    　　There was a time when some people's lives were devotcd simply to the cultivation of the land or the eare of eattle．No multi-tasking there; their lives wenl on at a much gentler pace, and in a familiar pattern．There is much that we might envy about a way of life like this．Yet before we do so, we must think of the hard tasks our ancestors faeed;：they farmed with bare hands, often lived close to hunger, and had to fashion tools from wood and stone．Modem machinery has freed peope fre that primitive existcnee．
