The weather is something no one can control. Maybe that is   16   there are so many expressions about the weather, especially about   17  .

    Sometimes, when you need rain, you do not get any. Other times, you get rain when you don’t need it.   18   a baseball game for example, a sudden rainstorm can stop an exciting game. If the game cannot continue, people who bought the tickets are given “rain checks”. These are   19   tickets that will let them see a   20   game for free.

   “Rain Check” now means a second chance at something. Shops may offer “rain checks” when they sell out all of a product(产品) — a television set, for example, at a special low price.   21   all the TV sets have been sold out, the shop gives rain checks to those who wanted to buy   22  . The rain check allows a person to buy the TV set later at the same low price after the shop receives some   23   TV sets from the factory.

    “Rain Check” is also used in social situations. It’s a way of   24   an invitation, but for a later time.

    You may ask for a “Rain Check” if you are invited to a friend’s house for dinner, but can’t be there right now. You say, “I would love to go, but I’m busy. Could I have a rain check?”   25   you are asking if you could have dinner with your friend at another time. It seems that your friend will probably ask you to dinner very soon next time.

We all have our own ways of sharing our life experiences with others.

Photographers use cameras,artists use brushes, musicians use songs and writers use stories.

Spencer Johnson's story Who Moved My Cheese? shows changes exist in(存在于)our life.  Life changes and so we do. We must change ourselves to face the changing environment, or we will fail.

When winter arrives, there are no leaves on trees. Next spring the cycle begins again. Since we know there are cycles in nature, we can prepare for them. We know it is colder in winter and hotter in summer, so we can dress properly.

Since we accept the cycles of nature,we should also accept the changes in our life.

We can prepare ourselves for changes by becoming more flexible(灵活的). We can regard the changes in our life as chances. As we keep changing ourselves, we can keep up with the changes in our life.

What will the future be like? What do you think of it? Here are some answers from some students.

Roy Burns: I think life in the future will be better. Most people in the world will use “green cars” by 2020, so there will be less pollution and people will live to be 200 years old. As for space travel, I would say, we will travel to Mars(火星) and some other stars in about fifty years.
