Wrestling(摔跤)
Rulon Gardner didn’t stand a chance. In Sydney, Australia, in 2000, the farm boy from Wyoming faced Russian
wrestlerAleksandr Karelin. Karelin had three Olympic gold medals andnine world titles. But no matter whatKarelin tried,
Gardner resisted (抵抗). With five seconds left, the “unbeatable” Karelin gave up. It was the biggest surprise in Olympic
wrestlinghistory.

Anyway, I want to tell you about someone who was a little bit different but I won’t mention his real name. Let’s call
him “Kaushik”. He and his friends were sitting behind me in class and they were talking about a city of my country which
was actually beside my hometown. I turned back and asked them why they wanted to go there. From that moment on we
becamegoodfriends.
One day, Kaushik suggested making a short film where our friends were to be the actors or fill other roles. We liked

In the future, people will work fewer hours a week, right?Actually, today, more people are working 10 to 12 hours a
day, six days a week, than ever before in modern times. People put in the same hours as workers in the 1860-1870s did. In
the 1950s, most people worked a 40-hour workweek.At that time, people predicted that the workweek would continue to
decrease.Today,peopleareasking,“WhenwillIgetsomefreetime?”
More people are working longer hours, for two reasons. One reason is the increase in the cost of living. In order to

New Jersey as a social worker from 8:30 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. In the late afternoon and in the evenings, she sees private
customers. On the weekends, she works as a caterer (宴会承办者). It costs so much to support her family, she says, that
workinglessisnotpossible.
Butthere is asecondreason thatpeople are working more than 40 hoursa week.Today,many companies are trying to
do more work with fewer workers. Employees feel that they have no choice. If they don’t agree to work overtime, they are

Do you want something different for dinner? Try some space food. Many scientists are living for months aboard the
第 5 页 共 11 页International Space Station high above the earth. It’s too expensive to carry food to feed people living in space. Therefore,
peopleinspacewillneedtogrowfoodforthemselves.Buthowcantheygrowfoodwithoutsoilandsunlight?
Today, we already have hydroponic (水培的) vegetables. The science of hydroponics is not new. Many writers
believe that the Hanging Gardens of Babylon were actually a large hydroponic system. This system could have used fresh
water that was rich in oxygen and minerals for the plants. Hydroponic systems need light. In addition to sunlight,
hydroponic farms can use artificial lights. Instead of soil, hydroponic farms use mixtures of chemicals to feed the plants.
And in addition to a natural climate, most hydroponic farms often use greenhouses. One advantage of hydroponics is that

Farmers know how to grow a few kinds of hydroponic vegetables, such as lettuces, tomatoes, and cucumbers. But in
space, people will need to eat more than salad. So scientists are learning how to grow hydroponic rice, beans and potatoes.
As they do these experiments, they are analyzing their results and examining how to apply these results to a real life
situationprovidingtastymealsforspacetravelers.
The scientists make imitation meat dishes, such as carrot drumsticks, made from carrots, garlic, and bread, instead of
chicken. How do these unusualfoods taste?The scientists have been inviting a group of taste testers into their laboratories.
So far, they have tested 200 different recipes (菜谱). The carrot drumstick dish was a hit. Perhaps soon, people will eat
