[00:00.00]和谐英语学习网 Unit six  Life in the future  Listening  Part ONE
[00:07.39]A:Hello,greetings from the future!
[00:12.85]My name is Mekanika,and I live in the year 3044.
[00:20.30]Well,that's what you would call it,we call it the year 58 AL.
[00:28.06]AL means after leaving.
[00:32.91]You see,58 years ago people in the earth
[00:39.26] decided that they had to do something to save the people on the planet.
[00:45.04]There were so many people on the earth
[00:49.19]and there were so much pollution,
[00:53.24]that the only way to keep the planet from dying was to send people into space.
[00:59.48]My family was one of the chosen ones.
[01:04.24]About 1/3 of the earth population was left back home.
[01:09.80]And the rest of us went into space.
[01:13.95]We're now living in a new city on the planet Mars.
[01:19.20]Life here is very nice,and we are happy in our new home.
[01:25.37]We still keep in touch with the people on earth,
[01:29.50]and some of us go back for short visits.
[01:33.86]The earth is better now,
[01:37.10]and the people back home are doing their best to clean up the planet.
[01:42.84]I was born here on Mars,and I've never been to earth.
[01:48.77]My grandparents and parents tell me about the earth
[01:54.23] and it sounds like a beautiful place.
[01:58.31]When my science teacher told me
[02:02.28]that we could use our schools time machine to send messages to the past.
[02:08.73]I wanted to send one to you,and tell you about the life here.
[02:14.61]Part Two  Every morning I have to get up at 2:00.
[02:21.87]That probably sounds very strange to you,
[02:26.73]but you see,we have a different time system here.
[02:32.69]We divide the day into eight parts,
[02:37.23]two o'clock in the morning here on Mars
[02:41.36]is almost likes six o'clock on the earth.
[02:45.62]I eat breakfast with my family before I go to school.
[02:51.49]The food here is different from your food.
[02:56.95]We eat pills and drink juice to stay healthy.
[03:02.23]My history book says that you ate something called "bread",
[03:08.29]and even ate meat from other animals,that sounds very strange to me.
[03:16.34]We don't eat any animals here,and I've never even seen bread.
[03:22.81]At 3:30 I catch the school spaceship,and fly to class.
[03:30.36]We don't have schools in class rooms,
[03:34.44]we need our learning guides,you called them teachers,
[03:40.00]in different placesand solve problems together.
[03:45.96]I love school,my friends are wonderful,
[03:51.92]and I like to think about the world in new ways.
[03:56.67]I also like creating things with my mind box,you called it a computer.
[04:04.92]I'm very interest in what you call painting and singing.
[04:10.96]Can you please tell me more about what they are?
[04:15.50]I've read about your life in my history book,
[04:19.87]but it's difficult to understand how you lived such a long time ago?
[04:26.42]Could you please write to me and tell me about your life?
[04:31.78]Thank you.I have to get back to work,
[04:36.64]I have a test in Mars geography next week. So I need to prepare for it.
[04:43.72]Best wish. Mekanika.
