ES-ME is a fun computer program. Here is how it works:

  • First, tell ES-ME your birthday.
  • Then ask your question.
  • Finally, you will get an answer from ES-ME.

Below are the four questions people most often ask, and the funny answers they get.

Q1:   Will I get a good job?

ES-ME: Sure you will, if you are able to do a good job.


Q2:   When will I die?

ES-ME: You’ll know when the time comes.


Q3:   Can I find my true love?

ES-ME: Yes you can, if there’s true love in the world.


Q4:   What will be on my next school test?

ES-ME: It will be what you’ve been taught.

20.
What does ES-ME do?
It takes tests.
It collects ideas.
It repeats questions.
It gives answers.
21.
What does You’ll know when the time comes mean in the reading?
You can believe time is the best medicine for a broken heart.
You can know when you will die only when you are dying.
You will die when you get old.
You should know time flies and never waits.

What kind of place do you usually choose to stay for the night during a trip? Expensive hotels that may make you feel like you don’t get what you pay for? Or cheap hostels that put you and five other strangers in the same bedroom? If both choices sound terrible to you, here’s something new: holiday apartments.

In a holiday apartment, you have more space than what a hotel room can give you. Everything in the apartment is at your disposal. The living room, the kitchen, the study, and, of course, the bedrooms are all for your own use. Some apartments even have a lovely garden or a game room. You’ll feel at home in the holiday apartment. The best thing is, a holiday apartment is not expensive. The price for a holiday apartment is for two people, and the apartment is often cheaper than a hotel room for two. You only need to pay a little more for a third or fourth person. If you travel with friends or your family, a holiday apartment will be your best choice!

You can find it everywhere.

Mordern Worplace

June 5, 2016

The problem of long working hours is a real headache in our country. It kills many people every year (see Figure 1), and many companies are trying to change that. They have at least one “No Overtime Day” in a week, and it is often Wednesday. On “No Overtime Day,” workers are asked to leave their offices before 8 p.m. At 8 p.m., companies play the song “There’s Always Tomorrow” and turn off all the lights.

However, after the workers walk out of their offices, they don’t go home. Some go back later, turn on their table lamps, and keep working, and others find somewhere else to work until very late at night. Restaurants and coffee shops are busier on Wednesday evenings, and they have started selling drinks and meals for these workers.

But why do these people keep working? A study shows that workers who work more hours often have a bigger chance to get paid more and rise higher in their companies. This is true for both men and women (see Figure 2). Working long hours has become a way to show that people are hard-working. Clearly, this must be changed before the problem gets any worse.

Long working hours kills more and more workers every year.
Men and women have almost the same chance to get paid more and rise higher when they work 2,200 hours.
Men usually have a bigger chance to get paid more and rise higher when they work the same hours as women.

Below is a page from Katie’s diary.

Dear Diary, ⛈ June 7, 2011

I was very sad to hear what happened to Woollie yesterday. Woollie was my favorite sheep. I have a storybook about Woollie. It says when Woollie was four, he ran away from Mr. Armstrong’s farm, and it took Mr. Armstrong six years to find Woollie. But Woollie had grown so much fleece that he didn’t even look like a sheep. Mr. Armstrong decided to cut his fleece on TV so everyone could see. Daddy said this happened on the day I was born. Woollie’s fleece weighed 27 kg, and could make clothes for 20 large men. I asked Daddy if his favorite vest was made from Woollie’s fleece. Daddy said no, because Woollie’s fleece was sold to collect money for sick kids. In the storybook, Woollie was taken to see Ms. Stella Clark, the leader of our city then. They even had tea together. Daddy said Woollie did meet Ms. Clark, but he wasn’t sure if they had tea. Daddy said Woollie was put down because he as too sick and there was no way to help him. I cried. I hope Woollie will be happy up there in the sky.

Yellow Dress
 by Janet Lee 
Mary had a yellow dress
Bought from the department store.
It looked as beautiful as the moon,
And as bright as the sun.

Mary wore all the time
The yellow dress I felt so right.
Every day from day to night
I saw her in the dress so bright.

“Buy me a yellow dress.”
I cried to Mom and Dad,
“As beautiful and bright
As the dress the girl living near has!”

I cried and cried and cried,
Until they said with sad eyes,
“We need food for your baby sister.
And clothes for your coming brother.”

Since then I’ve learned
Mary’s yellow dress
Is better to dream of
Than to ask for.
31.
Why does the writer say. “Every day from day to night / I saw her in the dress so bright”?
The dress had sun shapes on it.
The dress was Mary’s school uniform.
The writer lived with Mary.
The writer liked the dress very much.
32.
What did the writer’s parents mean by their words?
They already had a dress for her baby sister.
They did not have money for a dress.
They did not like the yellow dress.
They would ask Mary where to buy the yellow dress.
My mother likes to tell me the story about my name, Stella. She 33 about it many times. I was born on a night full of stars. My mom 34 a hard time when the doctor said I was too big to be pulled out. At that moment, Mom looked into the sky, making a wish with all her heart, “Let the baby live, please, even if I may die!” Just then, a very bright star 35 from the sky. All her troubles were soon gone, and my little head came out of her body. With the falling of a star came a new life. That’s how I 36 the name “Stella,” which means “star.”
