We are bothered that the kids aren’t old enough but we’ll be more  1  when they  are．After that we’re  2  that we have teenagers to deal with．We will 3  be happy when they are out of that stage．

We always tell ourselves that our life will be  4   when our spouse（配偶）gets his or her act together, when we get a nice car, and are able to go on a nice vocation when we   5  ．The truth is，there’s no better time than 6  ．If not now, when? Our life will always be filled with  7  ．It's best to admit this to ourselves and decide to be happy   8 　．

One of my  9  quotes comes from Alfred Souza．He said “for a long time it had  Seemed to me that life was about to begin—real life．But there was always some  10 in the way, something to be  11  first, some unfinished business，time still to be served，a debt to be paid．’’

Then life would begin．12  ，it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life．This perspective has helped me to see that there is no   13  to happiness．Happiness is the way．So  14  every moment that you have．

And remember that  15  waits for no one．So  16  waiting until you finish schoo1．until you go back to school；until you get married，until you get  17  ；until you have kids；until you retire；until you get a new car or home；until spring；Until you are  18   again to decide that there is no better time than right now to be happy．

Happiness is a journey，not a（n）  19  ．So，work like you don’t need money，love like you’ve never been hurt,  20  dance like no one’s watching．

　　She prepared her work very care-fully and demanded us to do the same．We got lots of homework from her．Once she had broken her arm, and everybody in the class thought that maybe the home-work load would be reduced, but it con tinued just the same．She checked our work by stamping her name at the bot tom of the papers to show that she had read them．

Signal that may prove E．T．is phoning home

By David Harding

　　It is the sort of out-of-this-world phenomenon that might have got E．T．himself jumping for ioy (if only his legs had been long enough)．

　　Astronomers bare received three mysterious radio signals from outer space．

　　They picked them up while using a radio telascopc stationed in Puerto Rico to probe deep into the universe．

　　Each signal lasted about one minute and was recorded on the frequency which scientists believe aliens would be most likely to use, namely SHGb02＋I(xiàn)4a (since you ask, this is the frequency at wbich hydrogen readily takes in and gives out energy．) According to New．Scientist magazine, the signal originates from a point her ween the Pi-es and Aries constellations (雙魚座和白羊座) where there is no obvious star or planetary system within 1,000 light years．

　　What is sending tbe signals is unknown, hut scientists working on the Search for Exlraterrestrial Intelligence project believe it could finally prove there is life “out there”．

　　”We are looking for something that screams out ‘a(chǎn)rtificial'“ said Eric Korpela, a researcher from the University of California, Berkeley．

　　”This just doesn't do that bot it could be because it is distant．”

　　Other scientists are not so sure it will point the way to alien life but they have ruled out a scientific joke．They believe it may be an unknown astronomical phenomenon or even a strange thing of the telescope itself．

　　”If they can see the signal four, five or six times it really begins to get exciting,” said Jocelyn Bell Burnell, from the University of Bath．

(1)

In the pessage E．T．refers to ________．

[　　]

A．
