Ladies and gentlemen, I returned to this year in a time machine. In the year 2500, we are able to travel through time to any year in history. This year is your last chance to change your lifestyle to save the Earth.
Beginning in the middle of the 20th century, a few people were worried about the polluted water and air on the Earth, but most people did not change their way of life. Instead, they continued to pour dangerous chemicals (化学品）and other waste into lakes and seas, to drive more and more cars and trucks, and to cut down trees.
By the year 2200, the water on the Earth was completely polluted. People could no longer drink the water, and they had to use other types of liquids. Scientists said that in the future there might be too many people on the Earth. But not enough was done. So, by the year 2300, there were so many people that food became scarce. There was no water to grow food and all fish in the lakes and seas died because of pollution. Terrible wars broke out between the rich and the poor. Scientists were working very hard to find another planet in space where humans could live.
By the year 2400, the air was too polluted for humans to breathe. So we had to leave the Earth. But only the rich were able to leave. Where did we go? Nowhere. And everywhere. You see scientists did not find another safe planet, so now we must travel around the universe (宇宙)
in our spaceships. We are still looking for a place to call our home. So, it is up to you to change history. There is still hope. You must change your lifestyle now, before it is too late.

Our reporter asked people what they were doing on July 20th, 1969 when man first walked
on the Moon. Here is what they said:
Kate Jones, waitress: I remember that day very well. I was fifteen years old. It was a hot day and I was with my family in the mountains. We were having a picnic. We didn’t see the Moon landing when it happened, but we were thinking about it. We saw it later on the TV news.
John Bates, postman: I was eighteen years old. It was a very exciting day. I was watching TV at home when the astronaut walked on the Moon. His name was Neil Armstrong.
