Unit3 Life in the future（重要） I still can not believe that I am taking up the prize that I won last year. I have to remind myself constantly that I am really in AD3008. Worried about the journey, I was unsettled for the first few days. As a result, I suffered from “time lag”. It seems you keep getting flashbacks from your previous time period. So I was very nervous and uncertain at first. However, Wang Ping, gave me some green tablets which helped a lot. Well-known for their expertise, his parents’ company, called “Future Tours”, transported me safely into the future in a time capsule. Later, the space stewardess called us to the capsule and we climbed in through a small opening. We felt sleepy after drinking a calming drink. The capsule began swinging gently sideways as we lay relaxed and dreaming. A few minutes later, we had arrived. I was still on the earth but one thousand years in the future. At first my new surroundings were difficult to tolerate. The air seemed thin, as though its combination of gases had little oxygen left. Hit by a lack of fresh air, my head ached. Just as I tried to make the necessary adjustment to this new situation, Wang Ping handed a mask to me and I felt better in no time. Soon I was back on my feet again and following him to collect a hovering carriage. These carriages float above the ground and by bending or pressing down in your seat, you can move swiftly. Wang Ping fastened my safety belt and showed me how to use it. Soon I could fly as fast as him. However I lost sight of Wang Ping when we reached what looked like a large market because of too many carriages flying by in all directions. He was swept up into the center of them. Then I caught sight of Wang Ping again and flew after him. Unit 4: MY FIRST WORK ASSIGNMENT ??????????? Never will Zhou Yang (ZY) forget his first assignment at the office of a popular English newspaper. His discussion with his new boss, Hu Xin (HX), was to strongly influence his life as a journalist.
