“ How far is it to the next village?“ the American asks a man sitting by the side of the road. In some countries, because the man realizes that the traveler is tired and eager to get to his destination(目的地), he will politely say “Just down the road“. He thinks this is more encouraging, gentler , and therefore the wanted answer. So the American drives through the night, getting more and more angry, feeling “ tricked“. He thinks the man purposely cheated him, for obviously he must have known the distance quite well. Had conditions been turned over, the American would have felt he was “cheating“ the driver if he had said the next town was close when he knew it was really 15 miles further on. Though, he, too, would be sympathetic(同情的)to the weary driver, he would say “You have a good way to go yet; it is at least 15 miles“. The driver might be disappointed, but he would know what to expect. Whether to be correct or polite leads to many misunderstandings between people of different cultures. If you are aware of the situation in advance, it is sometimes easier to recognize the problem.

Bruce: You should do that. Where are you planning to go tomorrow? Cindy: A friend is taking me to see the Great Wall. Is it far from Beijing? Bruce: About an hour’ s drive to the west of Beijing.

Are you facing a situation that looks impossible to fix? In 1969, the pollution was terrible along the Cuyahoga River near Cleveland, Ohio. It 【K1】______ (be)unimaginable that it could ever be cleaned up. The river was so polluted that it 【K2】______ (actual)caught fire and burned. Now, years later, this river is one of【K3】______most outstanding examples of environmental cleanup. But the river wasn’ t changed in a few days【K4】______even a few months. It took years of work to reduce the【K5】______ (industry)pollution and clean the water. Finally, that hard work paid off and now the water in the river is【K6】______ (clean)than ever. Maybe you are facing an impossible situation. Maybe you have a habit【K7】______is driving your family crazy. Possibly you drink too much or don’ t know how to control your credit card use. When you face such an impossible situation, don’ t you want a quick fix and something to change immediately?

Sometime in the next century, the familiar early-newspaper on the front gate will disappear. And instead of reading your newspaper, it will read to you. You’ 11 get up and turn on the computer newspaper just like switching on the TV. An electronic voice will distribute stories about the latest events, guided by a program that selects the type of news you want. You’ 11 even get to choose the kind of voice you want to hear. Want more information on the brief story? A simple touch makes the entire text appear. Save it in your own personal computer if you like. These are among the predictions from communication experts working on the newspapers of the future. Pictured as part of broader home-based media and entertainment systems, computer newspapers would unite print and broadcast reporting, offering news and analysis with video images of news events. Most of the technology is available(可用的)now, but convincing(说服)more people that they don’t need paper to read a newspaper is the next step. But resistance to computer newspapers may be stronger from within journalism. Since it is such a cultural change, it may be that the present generation of journalists and publishers will have to die off before the next generation realize that the newspaper industry is no longer a newspaper industry. Technology is making the end of traditional newspapers unavoidable. Despite technological advances, it could take decades to replace newsprint with computer screens. It might take 30 to 40 years to complete the changeover because people need to buy computers and because newspapers have established financial(财经的)interests in the paper industry.

Robert Spring, a 19th century forger(伪造者), did well in his job that he was able to make his living for 15 years by selling false signatures of famous Americans. Spring was born in England in 1813 and arrived in Philadelphia in 1858 to open a bookstore. At first he made some money by selling his small but real collection of early US autographs(亲笔签名). Discovering his ability at copying handwriting, he began to learn the signatures of George Washington and Ben Franklin and write them on the title pages of old books. To reduce the chance of being discovered, he sent his works to England and Canada for sale. Forgers have a difficult time selling their products. A forger can’ t go to a respectable buyer but must deal with people who don’ t have much knowledge in the field. Forgers have many ways to make their works look real. For example, they buy old books to use the aged paper of the title page, and they treat paper and ink with chemicals. After the Civil War, Britain was still fond of the southern states, so, Spring invented a respectable lady known as Miss Fanny Jackson, the only daughter of General “Stone Wall“ Jackson. For several years Miss Fanny’ s money problems forced her to sell a great number of letters belonging to her famous father. Spring had to work very hard to satisfy the demand. All this activity did not prevent Spring dying in poverty.
