    It's March, 2050.

    Frank and Mary Smith wake up in their comfortable house in the morning and switch on the bedroom computer to get the latest news. They used to read the Times, but changed to electronic newspapers many years ago.
    There is the usual news about space: another space flight has returned from Mars and scientists have discovered a new planet. Then they turn to business news: the US dollar has risen greatly in Shanghai, one of the world's leading business centres. Mary tells the computer to buy 5,000 dollars, and there is a quick response that it has been done.
    As they watch the screen, Mary orders one of the household robots to make coffee for them.

    Frank disappears into the study to join a video conference with his partners around the world. He is a computer engineer, working for several companies. This is his third job: he used to be in marketing and then television.
    Mary has a quick look at the shopping channels - the usual selection of electric cars, household robots and cheap travel offers - before picking up the video phone to talk to her assistant. She also has a job and she is doing medical research. Both she and Frank used to have an office desk in London, but in 2014 they decided to move to the seaside and work from home.
    Frank and Mary have one daughter, Louise, who also has her own workstation at home. She goes to school only one day a week, mainly to play with other students. Classrooms disappeared in 2030 because there was no longer any need for them: communications systems have made it much easier to learn at home.
    Louise, now thirteen, is studying Chinese at present, which has become a world language as important as English. Louise has many Chinese friends. They communicate by computer.
    According to the family doctor, Louise will live to at least 130. Her wish is to work for a few decades (十年) and then spend her time on music and painting.

    根据短文内容回答下面的问题。
    As you’re using e-mails, remember that sending and getting letters can sometimes bring about serious trouble.
    When Jim left the snow-covered streets of London for a holiday in New York, his wife was on a business trip and was planning to meet him there the next day. When he reached his hotel in New York, he decided to send his wife a quick e-mail. But he couldn’t find the piece of paper on which he had written her e-mail address. He tried his best to remember where he had put it, but failed. Unluckily, he made a mistake and sent it to an old woman. Her husband had died a few years ago. When she saw the e-mail, she gave a terrible shout and fell on the floor. Her family rushed into the room and saw the message on the computer.
    “Dearest wife, everything is ready for your arrival tomorrow.
    Love, Jim.
    P.S. it’s hot here.”
    小题1:Where was Jim for his holiday?
    小题2:Why couldn’t Jim write his wife’s e-mail address correctly?
    小题3:Was it hot in London?

    Do you know what school life is like in Singapore? In Singapore, a class only lasts half an hour, but there are no breaks between classes. The students only have a 30-minute tea break after 3 or 4 classes.
    They do not do eye exercises. Yao Suyu said our eye exercises were unfamiliar(不熟悉)to her. “I’d like to introduce them to our school,” she said. “They’re very useful!”
    In Singapore school ends at 1:50 p.m. But students joined other classes after school such as dance clubs and choir(合唱团). Yao says she joins dance club twice a week and it lasts from 1:30 to 5:30 p.m.
    Singapore’s population(人口)includes Chinese, Indians(印度人), Malays(马来人 )and Westerners. But there is no special school for any one of the groups. The students in Yao’s school are mainly Chinese, Indians and Malays. “The Indian students take Indian language classes when we study Chinese,” said Yao. “But if an Indian student is interested in Chinese, he or she can study it, too.”
    In Singaporean schools, teachers teach in English. It’s the official(官方的)language in Singapore. Singaporean students have to take different courses after school. Like most Singaporean students, Yao took other courses in Chinese, math and English.

    There are hundreds of funny and strange expressions in the English language. A lot of them include country names or nationalities. Take these examples:
    The Dutch（丹麦人）are the target of most English expressions about nationalities. Why are there so many jokes about the Dutch in English? And what do these expressions mean? In the 17th and early 18th centuries, there were three wars between the British and the Dutch, and Dutch became a bad word. So double Dutch means something that has no meaning or is impossible to understand. A Dutch uncle is someone who gives much stronger advice than they need to. There are later expressions, which are funnier and kinder, like to go Dutch, which is nowadays a popular expression. It means to pay for your part of a bill. This often happens when a group of friends have a meal together, and each person pays for the food they ate. I’m a Dutchman is another commonly used expression. This means not being able to believe something.
    An expression with a similar meaning to double Dutch is it’s all Greek to me, which means I don’t understand. The expression was made famous in Shakespeare’s play Julius Caesar although the expression is actually hundreds of years older.
    If you take French leave, you are not present or leave somewhere without permission. For example, you could take French leave from a classroom or the place where you work. This expression is from the 18th century when French people left parties without saying goodbye to the host or hostess.
    There are Chinese whispers, which mean confused（令人困惑的）messages. This describes the fact that a message can often change as it is passed from person to person. This expression comes from the First World War when foreigners were often confused by Chinese language.
    Many people find English expressions confusing, but now that you know about some of them, you can easily have fun finding out many more funny English expressions.
    小题1:Are there many jokes about the Dutch in English?
    小题2:When did Dutch become a bad word?
    小题3:What does “French leave” mean?
    小题4:Which three expressions mentioned above have similar meanings?
    小题5:What do the funny and strange expressions in the passage have in common?
