Three afternoons a week, she has activities (netball, singing) after school and by the time we get home, homework is the last thing she feels like doing. The other two days, she gets home early and we argue(争论) about whether she should do her homework right after school, or if she should have some time to rest and play first. When Maria at last sits down to do her homework , she seems to want me there helping all the time. I do want to help her, but I'm sure that she is going to need to be able to do it on her own.

A Letter from Magazine 2050
From John Andrews
Cambridge
20 February 2050
I read the article (文章) last week which compared life in the 1990s with life today.The writer thought that family life then was better than it is now.I don’t agree.
Our environment is much cleaner now.In the 1990s there was a lot pollution from old-fationed（老式的） petrol-driven cars.Services,such as gas and electricity（电）,were incredibly（难以相信地） expensive and the earth’s limited resources（资源） were being used up too quickly.In the twentieth century,people didn’t recycle their waste products properly which caused even more pollution.
Life is so much easier and more convenient（方便） now.Fifty or sixty years ago,they didn’t have domestic robots,for example.My grandparents had to do all their own housework! And there were no smart card’ machines（智能卡） in their homes.Today, we can order almost everything by using our cards,but in the last century people had to go to the shops themselves.What a wast of time! In my opinion,we are much richer now.
John Andrews
