| Mr. Peter Johnson, aged twenty-three, battled for half an hour to escape from his trapped car yesterday when it la nded upside down in three feet of water. Mr. Johnson took the only escape route-through the boot (行李箱). Mr. Johnson's car had finished up in a ditch (沟渠) at Romney Marsin, Kent after skidding on ice and hitting a bank. "Fortunately, the water began to come in only slowly," Mr.Johnson said. "I couldn't force the doors because they were jammed against the walls of the ditch and dared not open the windows because I knew water would come flooding in." Mr.Johnson, a sweet salesman of Sitting Home, Kent, first tried to attract the attention of other motorists by sounding the horn and hammering on the roof and boot.Then he began his struggle to escape. Later he said, "It was really a half penny that saved my life. It was the only coin I had in my pocket and I used it to unscrew the back seat to get into the boot.I hammered desperately with a hammer trying to make someone hear, but no help came." It took ten minutes to unscrew the seat, and a further five minutes to clear the sweet samples from the boot.Then Mr. Johnson found a wrench and began to work on the boot lock.Fifteen minutes passed by. "It was the only chance I had. Finally it gave, but as soon as I moved the boot lid, the water and mud poured in. I forced the lid down into the mud and scrambled clear as the car filled up." His hands and arms cut and bruised (擦伤), Mr.Johnson got to Beckett Farm nearby, where he was looked after by the farmer's wife, Mrs. Lucy Bates. Huddled in a blanket, he said, "That thirty minutes seemed like hours." Only the tips of the car wheels were visible, police said last night.The vehicle had sunk into two feet of mud at the bottom of the ditch. |

| The most frightening words in the English language are, "Our computer is down." You hear it more and more when you are on business. The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, "I'm sorry, I can't sell you a ticket.Our computer is down." "If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket." "I can't write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so." I looked down on the computer and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen. Then I asked her, "What do all you people do?" "We give the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not." "So when it goes down, you go down with it." "That's good, sir." "How long will the computer be down?" I wanted to know. "I have no idea. Sometimes it's down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. There's no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since it's down it won't answer us." After the girl told me they had no backup (备用) computer, I said. "Let's forget the computer. What about your planes? They're still flying, aren't they?" "I couldn't tell without asking the computer." "Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he's flying to Washington," I suggested. "I wouldn't know what gate to send you to.Even if the pilot was going to Washington, he couldn't take you if you didn't have a ticket." "Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours?" "I wouldn't know," she said, pointing at the dark screen. "Only 'IT' knows.'It' can't tell me." By this time there were quite a few people standing in lines. The word soon spread to other travelers that the computer was down. Some people went white, some people started to cry and still others kicked their luggage. |

| Our school lies on the foot of a mountain with a small river passes by. It used to be a quiet, clean and beautiful place for a school. It is a pity which things have changed after a chemical factory was built near our school one year ago. Every day the factory produces many waste water and some harmful gases. The terribly pollution is harmful to our health. What's bad, the great noise from the factory had a bad effect on our activities. As a result, our school is no longer what it used to. Our teachers and students are miserable beyond the description. _______________________________________________________________________________________ |
