Do you ever hope to have a chair right for you when standing for too long?1.
The different chair was made in a company in Switzerland. The company's boss Keith Gunura said the idea came from his work experience when he was young.2.The place was not big enough for all the workers to sit on chairs, and it was tiring for him to stand for several hours at a time.3.Then the Chairless Chair came out. As its name implied, it doesn't look like a chair at all. 4.When you want to sit down, just push a button, and it will move and work like a chair.

Earlier this year in Norway, people buried a steel bottle with plant seeds, a wristwatch and rock samples (样本) in it. Why did they do this? They were making a time capsule(时间胶囊).
Time capsules are small collections of goods or information that are stored somewhere safe. They can be opened by people many years later, giving future people a view of life in the past.
They may contain (包含) newspaper articles, popular music recordings, and photos. Historians can use time capsules to learn more about societies that lived in the past.
One of the earliest time capsules was the Detroit Century Box. On Dec 31st, 1900, the city picked several photos and letters to be placed in a box. The box was then locked until Dec 31st, 2000. The things inside the capsule give us a look at Detroit in the past. There were photos of people and places, as well as letters written by local people. Some of them even gave predictions for the future. One person predicted that Detroit would have a population of 4 million by 2000. But in fact, the city’s population was about 951,000 that year.
Humans have even sent time capsules into space! The US sent two capsules into space on the Voyager spacecraft (旅行者号航天器) in 1977. They are called the Voyager Golden Records. They contain sounds and pictures that show the diversity of human life and culture. For example, they have music by German composer (作曲家) Beethoven and pictures of plants, insects and landscapes (山水风景画). The Voyager spacecraft has traveled far away from our solar system(太阳系). It is hoped that aliens might find the time capsules someday and learn about us.

Batman, Jubilee, the X-Men—all are superheroes. What makes a superhero? Let’s look at seven things that superheroes share.
1. Nearly all superheroes have super-human powers. For example, Superman can fly, and Wonder Woman can talk with animals.
2. A secret identity（身份）helps protect the superhero’s family and friends. In a few cases friends and family know the superhero’s identity—that Spider-Man is really Peter Parker or that Bruce Banner is actually the Hulk.
3. A colorful costume helps the public make out the superhero, and at the same time it hides his or her identity.
4. All superheroes are honest and own a strong moral code（道德准则）. They respect the law but will break it if doing so will lead to the greater good. Superheroes expect no reward and seldom kill people.
5. There are always enemies who have similar powers for Superheroes to fight against.
6. As a child, Bruce Wayne saw a man kill his parents. He began training hard and later became Batman. The backstory tells how the superhero actually became the superhero we know. Superheroes are seldom born that way.
7. A weakness can make a superhero helpless. This is also what makes him or her interesting. To succeed they must overcome this weakness.
The superhero is perhaps not so different from us. It is the purpose of the story that speaks to us. They tell important truths about human nature. The superhero is a symbol of our hopes and goals. These are what we see in ourselves. And the superhero’s enemies are our own fears, such as crime and war. The superhero often loses but never, ever gives up. This is a lesson we can all learn from. Like us, the superhero is not perfect, but that’s exactly what makes a true hero.

3.What do superheroes have in common?
A.Super powers over animals. B.An identity unknown to their family.
C.A strong moral code. D.Super powers from birth.
4.Why does the writer point out the similarities between superheroes and us?
A.To encourage us to try to be perfect.
B.To advise us to act like superheroes.
C.To show that having weaknesses is of human nature.
D.To prove that superheroes have the same enemies as us.
5.What lesson can we learn from the superheroes?
A.Never give up. B.Never set a life goal.
C.Always hope for the best. D.Always learn to tell stories.
