  I dreamed I had an interview with God.“So you would like to interview me?” God asked.“If you have the time,” I said.My time is eternity(永远,来生).” God smiled, “what questions do you have in mind for me?” “What surprises you most about human beings?” God answered, “That they get bored with childhood, they rush to grow up, and then long to be children again.That they lose their health to make money, and then lose their money to restore their health.That by thinking anxiously about the future, they forget the present, such that they live in neither the present nor the future.That they live as if they will never die, and lie as though they had never lived.” God’s hand took mine and we were silent for a while.And then I asked, “As a parent, what are some of life’s lessons you want your children to learn?” “To learn they cannot make anyone love them.All they can do is let themselves be loved.To learn that it is not good to compare themselves to others.To learn to forgive by practising forgiveness.To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open profound(深刻的)wounds in those they love, and it can take many years to heal(治愈)them.To learn that a rich person is not one who has the most, but is one who needs the least.To learn that there are people who love them dearly, but simply have not yet learned how to express or show their feelings.To lean that two people can look at the same thing and see it differently.To learn that it is not enough that they forgive one another, but they must also forgive themselves.”“Thank you for your time,” I said humbly.“Is there anything else you would like your children to know?” God smiled and said:“Just know that I am here always.”

  The famous director of a big and expensive movie planned to film a beautiful sunset over the ocean, so that the audience could see his hero and heroine in front of it at the end of the film as they said good-bye to each other forever. He sent his camera crew(摄制组)out one evening to film the sunset for him.

  The next morning he said to the men,“Have you provided me with that sunset?”

  “No, sir,”the men answered.

  The director was angry.“Why not?”he asked.

  “Well, sir.”one of the men answered, “we're on the east coast here, and the sun sets in the west. We can get you a sunrise over the sea, if necessary, but not a sunset.”

  “But I want a sunset!”the director shouted.“Go to the airport, take the next flight to the west coast, and get one.”

  But then a young secretary had an idea.“Why don't you photograph a sunrise,”she suggested,“and then play it backwards. It'll look like a sunset.”

  “That's a very good idea!”the director said. Then he turned to the camera crew and said,“Tomorrow morning I want you to get me a beautiful sunrise over the sea.”

  The camera crew went out early the next morning end filmed a bright sunrise over the beach in the middle of a beautiful bay (海湾). Then at nine o'clock they took it to the director.“Here it is, sir.”they said, and gave it to him. He was very pleased.

  They all went into the studio (摄影棚).“All right.”the director explained.“Now our hero and heroine are going to say good-bye. Run the film backwards so that we can see the‘sunset’behind them.”

  The“sunset”began, but after a quarter of a minute, the director suddenly put his face in his hands and shouted to the camera crew to stop.

  The birds in the film were flying backwards, and the waves on the sea were going away from the beach.

     CBC is a famous air company which has over twenty planes carrying passengers and goods, flying
along 12 fixed lines all over the world. Its service is very good but some passengers are still not satisfied
with it and that is why in 1998 and 1999 the company received letters of complaints(投诉) from consumers
or passengers who pointed out over a dozen kinds of problems which are divided in groups in the following
table. This division is called Category. Problems that appear when the plane is flying are Flight problems.
Those about passengers' things carried by the plane are Baggage problems. Customer service refers to
service work which passengers are not satisfied with. Over sales of seats are about the fact that more seats
are sold and as a result the plane is too crowded to be safe. Refund problems appear when passengers fail
to receive the money paid to them because of what they have lost. Fares are problems about the price of
tickets. Reservations are problems that appear when passengers could not get the tickets they have already
booked. Tours are problems about the passengers'traveling by air or hotel problems. Advertising is what the
passengers think about advertisement on the plane. Credit problems are about the use of credit cards.
