The most frightening words in the English language are, "Our computer is down．" You hearit more and more when you are on business．The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticketto Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, "I' m sorry, I can' t sell you a ticket．Ourcomputer is down．"
"If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket．"
"I can' t write you out a ticket．The computer is the only one allowed to do so．"
I looked down on the computer and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffeeand staring at the black screen．Then I asked her, "What do all you people do？"
"We give the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you canfly with us or not．"
"So when it goes down, you go down with it．"
"That' s good, sir．"
"How long will the computer be down？" I wanted to know．
"I have no idea．Sometimes it' s down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours．There' s noway we can find out without asking the computer, and since it's down it won't answer us．"
After the girl told me they had no backup computer, I said．"Let's forget the computer．
What about your planes？ They' re still flying, aren' t they？"
"I couldn' t tell without asking the computer．"
"Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he' s flying to Washington," I sugges-ted．
"I wouldn' t know what gate to send you to．Even if the pilot was going to Washington, hecouldn' t take you if you didn' t have a ticket．"
"Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours？"
"I wouldn' t know," she said, pointing at the dark screen．"Only ' IT' knows．It can' t tellme．"
By this time there were quite a few people standing in lines．The word soon spread to othertravelers that the computer was down．Some people went white; some people started to cry and stillothers kicked their luggage．

Rat race rebels
Most of us are trapped in a nine-to-five office routine and many of us would like to escape. We interviewed three people who have said “No!” to this rat race…
Fiona
After university, I was on the dole for a few months. I didn’t have any money, so I was really pleased to get an office job… but it was very boring! I gave it up and went to do voluntary work for the VSO – Voluntary Service Overseas – in Rwanda. I teach old people and children to read and write. It’s not the most comfortable of jobs but it’s great to be doing something of real use for once.
Andy
I used to be a freelance news journalist. It was very stressful and I had to travel a lot. I applied for loads of other jobs with no success, so I started to think about my real interest – football! Now, I work from home and write football articles for press agencies around the world. It’s a full-time job but I have much more free time. I’m my own boss and I can get up when I want!
Emma
I used to be a teacher and I worked 40 hours a week. Then, I saw the movie American Beauty and thought I could change my life too! I did a course in acupuncture and shiatsu massage. I took four years to get qualified but now I have set up my own business. Shiatsu is very popular these days because people are so stressed and you can earn quite good money.
1、Emma didn’t have a job for a while.
2、Andy has turned an interest into a profession.
3、Fiona has her own company.
4、Fiona feels she is doing something useful.
5、Andy was influenced by a film that he saw.

On May 27, 1995, our life was suddenly changed. It happened a few minutes past three, when my husband, Chris, fell from his horse as it jumped over a fence. Chris was paralyzed (瘫痪) from the chest down, {able; unable; suitable} to breathe normally. As he was thrown from his horse, we entered into a life of disability with lots of unexpected challenges. We went from the “haves” to the “have-nots”. Or so we thought.
Yet what we discovered later were all the gifts that came out of sharing difficulties. We came to learn that something {terrible; practical; wonderful} could happen in a disaster. All over the world people cared for Chris so much that letters and postcards poured in every day. By the end of the third week in a medical center in Virginia, about 35,000 pieces of {news; paper; mail} had been received and sorted. As {patients; a family; nurses}, we opened letter after letter. They gave us comfort and became a source of strength for us. We use them to encourage ourselves. I would go to the pile of letters marked with “funny” if we need a laugh, or to the “disabled” box to find advice from people in wheelchairs or even in bed living happily and {successfully; bitterly; weakly}. These letters, we realized, had to be shared. And so here we offer one of them to you. "

Dear Brett,
Welcome back to St.Swithen’s.I look forward to hearing about your adventures in the US.
I’m writing because there have been a lot of changes since you went away, and you need to know about them before you can start work.
The main change is that we have had a new computer system installed.You will need to be trained in using the system before you can see any patients! I’ve arranged for you to have a training session at 10 o’clock on Monday with our IT consultant, Gerry.He’s a really nice guy.
It’s especially important that you can use the patient records system.We’ve had a few teething problems, and it seems complicated at first;but when you get used to it, you’ll find it really helpful.For example, it’s much quicker than the old system.Remember you used to wait ages before the information came up on the screen？ Well, now it’s very quick.
You will also need to be familiar with the appointment booking system, so you can see who your next patient is.The new program makes it impossible to double-book a patient, so we shouldn’t get as many complaints as we used to.
As well as the computer system, we’ve also installed a new electronic security door.You will need a special card from reception and it will need replacing every two months.I’m afraid we made Bill redundant.It’s a shame;I used to enjoy talking to him every morning.
Well, I hope you like the improvements.Most people find that it makes their work easier and faster.There is one downside though;the atmosphere has become less personal.I used to talk to everyone a lot, but now we communicate by email most of the time.I even email people who work in the same room as me!
Well, see you on Monday, Brett.Nice to have you back.
Best wishes,
Simon
