2、 leisure (空闲)might be one of the most important changes in our whole life. Many successful retirees say that they feel more satisfied with life from various activities and business.

Life and Work After Retirement in China2、 Perhaps no one knows the power of imagination better than Chinese writer Liu Cixin. Until four year

10、s ago, Liu worked full-time as a computer engineer at a power plant in Shanxi province. He only wrote science fiction in his spare time. But it was during this time that Lius imagination took flight. He did what he might never have the chance to do in real life wander in space, fight with aliens, an

14、fferent from the past. For the first time in my life, I was awed (使敬畏) by the mystery of the universe.” But no matter how far away Lius imagination takes him, somehow his novels always stay rational. In The Three-Body Problem, for example, Liu tells a tale of aliens invading Earth. But unlike other

15、alien stories, Liu talks more about relationships between civilizations(文明), rules of survival, and the meanings of life. And in The Wandering Earth, Liu looks ahead to the day when our solar system comes to an end and humans have to look for a new place to live. However, all his visions and solutio

Some people say

27、yes. The Internet helps make many friends. Chatting on line, students can express their feelings and opinions more freely, and even get help with their foreign language studies. Others, however, think students should not make friends on line. They say making friends on line is a waste of time, which should be spent more meaningfully on study. Besides, some students get cheated on line. It is my opinion that students should place their study, health and safety before other things. As for friendship, we can readily find it in our classmates and other people around us.解析：
