Today people can use the phone to talk with others almost anywhere on the earth . But when you use the phone , you don’t see the person you are talking with . That may change in the near future .
Today some people are using a kind of telephone called the picture phone or vision phone . With it , two people who are talking can see each other .
Picture phones can be useful when you have something to show the person you’re calling . They may have other uses in the future . One day you may be able to ring up a library and ask to see a book.
Then you’ll be able to read the book right over your picture phone . Or you may be able to go shopping through your picture phone . If you see something in the newspaper that you think you want to buy , you’ll go to your phone and call the shop . People at the shop will show you the thing you’re interested in right over the phone . You’ll be able to shop all over town and never even leave your room !

“It’s over ! Thank goodness ! ”
School was over and I was tired . I sat at the front of the school bus .
Janie , the driver , tries to break the uncomfortable atmosphere （气氛）by striking the match of talks . I try to listen politely , but usually I am too busy thinking about my day . On this day , however , her talk was worth （值得）listening to .
“My father’s ill , ”she said to no one in particular （特别地）. I could see worry in her eyes . I had never seen her like this before . She always meets students with a smile .
With a sudden change of interest , I asked , “What’s wrong with him ? ”
With her eyes wet and her voice unusual , she answered , “Heart trouble . ”Her eyes lowered as she continued . “I’ve already lost my mum , so I don’t think I can stand losing him . ”I couldn’t answer . My heart ached for her .
I sat on the seat thinking of the great pain （痛苦）my own mother was thrown into when her father died . I saw how hard it was , and still is , for her . I wouldn’t want anyone to go through that .
Suddenly I realized （意识到）Janie wasn’t only a bus driver , that was just her job . She had a whole world of family and cares too.
I suddenly felt very selfish . I paid no attention to Janie because she was a bus driver . I had judged her by her job and brushed her off as unimportant .
I shouldn’t have been so selfish and self-centered .
Understanding people is an art .

（D）
One of the things I always believe is that no matter how bad something is , you can take something positive out of it . The one time I wasn’t sure of that was on September 11.
I usually wake up at 6:30 or 7:00 in the morning . That day , I happened to wake up earlier . I turned on the TV and I saw that a plane had crashed into the North Tower of the World Trade Center . My first reaction was that it was a terrible accident . Then I saw another plane fly into the South Tower and I realized that I was witnessing an act of terrorism.
My wife and I spent the day watching the terrible pictures over and over again . When I watched family members looking for their loved ones , the pain in their eyes was something I would never forget . I couldn’t understand how something this terrible could have happened .
It wasn’t until a few weeks after September 11 that I began to see that perhaps some good did come from this tragedy . People seem different now , more understanding , more tolerant . Little things that seemed to be such a trouble before are no longer big things . Personally , I am more tolerant than I was . I realize life is too short , and too precious , to let myself get worried over small things . I’ve learned also that you can’t take things for granted . Things change in the blink of an eye . People go to work and don’t come back . One moment they’re living and the next minute they’re not . And , it doesn’t matter who you are , there is nothing you can do about it . We never know when our time here will be over , so we all need to make the most of every minute we have .
You try to learn from what happened . You can’t be used up by it . You can’t live by it . All you can do is just live .
注：crash 撞击 reaction 反应 witness 目击 tragedy 悲剧
tolerant 宽容的 precious 珍贵的 take … for granted 认为……是当然的
