Mr． Reynolds， my teacher， hand us a list of thoughts， and asked us to write a paper on one of those thoughts． I chose the topic "I wonder why things are the way they are．"
I wrote down all the questions that puzzled（困扰）me about life． I realized that many of them were hard to answer， and perhaps others could not be answered at all． When I handed in my paper， I was afraid that I might fail because I did not answer the question．
The next day， Mr． Reynolds handed me the paper and asked me to read it for the class． The other students became quiet as I began to read my story：
Mum， why are the roses red？ Why is the grass green and the sky blue？ Why do I have to graduate（毕业）？ Why do I have to grow up？ Why do I have to be called "Grandma" ，one day？…
Dad， why can't I stay out until 12： 00？ Why do I miss my old friends？ Why do I miss being at home？ Why do you love me so much？．．
Mum， Dad， why did you have to leave me？ I need you．

Would you like to live in a city where buildings turn the lights off for you， and self﹣driving cars will find the nearest parking space themselves？ Although it might sound a little far from you， living in a "smart" city like this could happen sooner than you think．
Great changes have taken place in towns that we have lived in for centuries， while completely new cities are being built． One such place is the city of Songdo． Every home there will have a "telepresence" system（远程遥控系统）﹣ allowing users to control the heating and locks， take part in video meetings， and receive education， healthcare and government services． Around the city， escalators（自动扶梯） will only move when someone is on them， and offices and schools will all be connected to the system．
The great mind behind Songdo is from the company Cisco． In fact， technology companies around the world such as IBM， Siemens and Microsoft are already in the business．
About 75% of the world's population will live in cities by 2050， so cities will need to be more modern to deal with the coming problems． " Making cities smarter is one way out， and I think this will in turn make cities greener， "said Dan Hill， head of a research company．
