I arrived at my mother’s home for our Monday family dinner.The smells of food flew over from the kitchen.Mother was pulling out quilt(被子) after quilt from the boxes,proudly showing me their beauties.She was preparing for a quilt show at the Elmhurst Church.When we began to fold and put them back into the boxes,I noticed something at the bottom of one box.I pulled it out.“What is this?” I asked.
“Oh?” Mom said,“That’s Mama’s quilt.”
I spread the quilt.It looked as if a group of school children had pieced it together;irregular designs,childish pictures,a crooked line on the right.
“Grandmother made this?” I said,surprised.My grandmother was a master at making quilts.This certainly didn’t look like any of the quilts she had made.
“Yes,right before she died.I brought it home with me last year and made some changes,” she said.“I’m still working on it.See,this is what I’ve done so far.”
I looked at it more closely.She had made straight a crooked line.At the center of the quilt,she had stitched(縫) a piece of cloth with these words:“My mother made many quilts.She didn’t get all lines straight.But I think this is beautiful.I want to see it finished.Her last quilt.”
“Ooh,this is so nice,Mom,”I said.It occurred to me that by completing my grandmother’s quilt,my mother was honoring her own mother.I realized,too,that I held in my hands a family treasure.It started with the loving hands of one woman,and continued with the loving hands of another.”

While all my classmates seem to be crazy about a one-way ticket to Mars(火星),
I’d rather say Mars is totally unsuitable for human existence.People won’t have enough food supplies there,and the terrible environment would make it impossible for them to live a long life.Besides,the journey won’t be safe.Can anybody explain to me just why people would go to Mars,never to return?
Steve Minear,UK
Here are the things you can think of:the desire to explore a foreign and unique environment,the excitement of being the first humans to open up a new world,the expectation of fame and glory....For scientists there is another reason.Their observations and research will probably lead to great scientific achievements.
Donal Trollop,Canada
There are already too many people on the Earth.I think that sometime before the end of the century,there will be a human colony(殖民地) on Mars.It will happen when people finally realize that two-way trips to the red planet Mars are unnecessary.Most of the danger of space flight is in the launches(發(fā)射) and landings.Cutting the trip home would therefore reduce the danger of accidents,save a lot of money,and open the way to building an everlasting human settlement in another world.
Enough supplies can be sent on ahead.And every two years more supplies and more people will be sent to the new colony.Mars has all the materials for a colony to produce or make everything it needs,and Mars is far more pleasant than the other planets in the outer space.
Paul Davies,USA
