I expect you find that pretty hard to believe. Let me explain. This book is a journal I wrote last month for
a very special competition. I won the first prize, which was that my book would become part of the first ever
experiment in time travel. It would be put in a time capsule to be sent back almost fifty years into the past. So,
if everything went according to the plan, you should be reading this in about the year 2005.
Do you know what time capsules are? They are usually containers made of some very strong material so
strong that it should last for hundreds or thousands of years without being destroyed. Inside these containers,
you put things that are typical of the place in which you live. For example, in 2005 you might put a copy of a
popular comic, a CD by a famous musician, videos of television programmes-all sorts of things. The idea is that
when people in another century open up the time capsule. They"ll be able to see what life was like in the past.
Until now, all time capsules have been left for people in the future to find. This one is the first that has been
sent from the future to the past. I don"t understand how it"s going to be done, but I think it"s a really cool idea. If
it works, my own grandparents will be able to read this when they were secondary school students! But if my
grandparents did read this, why haven"t they ever mentioned it to me?
B. about fifty years ago
C. in the future
D. by a time traveler

| A pop singer has to work very hard to become popular. He must give the public what they really want and need, or he must find a new way of singing that will attract their attention. Even when he has succeeded and his records are sold everywhere, he can not relax. Then he must work harder than ever to remain popular, because there are always younger singers trying to become famous and to steal some of the popularity. The life of a successful pop singer isn"t easy at all. He can only relax when he is alone, because everything he does is watched and reported in the special newspaper written for the fans. The fans are the most important people in the world for the singer. They buy his records, they go to his concert, and they make him rich and famous. But they can be very dangerous, too. Sometimes they do anything to get a souvenir (纪念品). They steal handkerchiefs, they tear off buttons, and they even cut off pieces of the unfortunate singer"s hair. Many singers have been forced to ride (即兴表演). A pop singer has to pay a lot of money for clothes because he must always look smart and different. And what"s more, he must always keep smiling. |

| [ ] |
| A. get money B. stay popular C. sell more records D. become famous |
| 2. It may be suggested (被暗示) from the passage that _______. |
