the fun they had
Margie kept a diary .One day she wrote,“17 May,2155”and then this sentence:“Today Tommy found a real book.”
It was a very old book.Its pages were yellow.Margie suddenly remembered that her grandfather once said that centuries ago all stories were printed on paper.This must be a book of that time.
Tommy and Margie were anxious to read the book.They turned the pages.It was very funny.The words stood still,and didn’t move as they did on a TV.And then,when they turned back,the same words were there!
“Oh,” said Tommy,“What a waste!When you finish reading the book,you just throw it away.You can have a million books on our television,and even more.There is nothing to throw away.”
Tommy and Margie were both thirteen.They had read a lot.When-ever they wanted to read,the books appeared on the TV.They had never turned a page like they were doing now.
“What’s it about?” Margie asked.
“School.”
Margie didn’t like the idea.“School?All those lessons:chemistry,physics,arithmetic!What can be interesting about school?” she hated school.Her school was a room next to her bedroom.There was a machine with a big TV set on it.The big TV showed her lessons,asked her questions and gave her exercises and examination papers.“Why did they write about school?”
“It’s not our kind of school.” Tommy answered.“This is the old kind of school hundreds of years ago.They had teachers.All were people.”
“Really?How could that be?And I don’t think it’s pleasant to have a stranger in my house to teach me.”
Tommy laughed.“you don’t know much,Margie.The teachers didn’t live in the house.They had a special building and all the pupils went there.”
“And all the pupils learned the same thing?”
“Of course,if they were the same age,the books says.”
At that moment,the machine in the next room called,“Margie!School!”
Margie went into her schoolroom.The TV was on and waiting for her.It was always on at the same time every day except Saturday and Sunday.
The TV announced,“Today’s arithmetic lesson…”
Margie looked at the TV.But she was thinking about the old school.All the pupils from the neighborhood came.They laughed,and shouted when they played ball games in the schoolyard or at the stadium.They sat together in the classroom,went home together at the end of the day.They learned the same things,so they could help on another with their homework and talk about it.And the teachers were people… Oh,what fun they had!

他们的乐趣
马吉保持了日记.有一天,她写道:“2155年5月17日”然后这句话:“今天,汤米发现了一个真正的书.”
这是一个很旧的书.它的网页被黄色.玛吉忽然想起她的祖父曾经说过,所有的故事,几个世纪以前印在纸上.这必须是一个当时的书.
汤米和玛吉急于看书.他们把网页.这是非常有趣.这些话就站住,没有动,因为他们在电视上一样.然后,当他们回头,同样的话在那里!
“哦,”汤米说,“真是浪费!当你读完这本书,你只是把它扔掉.您可以在我们的电视1万册,甚至更多.没有什么可以扔掉.“
汤米和玛吉都是13.他们读了很多.当有史以来他们想读的书籍出现在电视上.他们从来没有翻过一页像他们现在这样.
“什么事?”马吉问.
“学校”.
玛吉不喜欢这个主意. “学校?所有这些经验教训:化学,物理,算术!有什么可以对学校感兴趣?“她讨厌学校.她的学校是一个房间她旁边的卧室.有一台机器上设置了一个大电视.大电视显示她的教训,问她的问题,并给了她练习和试卷. “为什么他们写上学?”
“这不是我们学校的一种.”汤米回答. “这是几年前学校几百年的历史实物.他们的老师.都是人.“
“真的吗?怎么可能?而且我不认为这是愉快有一个陌生人在我的家里来教我.“
张宇人笑了起来. “你不知道的不多,马吉.老师们没有住在家里.他们有一个特殊的建筑,所有的学生去那里.“
“和所有的学生学习同样的事情?”
“当然,如果他们是同一时代,书籍说.”
在那一刻,在未来所谓房间,“玛吉机!学校!“
玛吉走进她的教室.电视是在和她的等待.它总是在每天除在周六和周日同一时间.
电视宣布:“今天的算术课...”
玛吉看着电视.但她想到了老同学.所有的学生从附近来了.他们笑了,当他们高喊起在校园或在球场球的游戏.他们坐在一起在教室里,回家在一天结束在一起.他们学会了同样的事情,所以他们可以对其他帮助他们的家庭作业和谈论它.和老师都是人...哦,他们什么好玩!
