Let us suppose it is now about A．D.2060．Let's make believe （假装；虚构） it is about fifty years from now．Of course，things have changed and life is very different．
Voyages to the moon are being made every day．It is as easy to take a holiday on the moon today as it was for the people in 1960to take a holiday in Europe．At a number of scenic spots on the moon，many hotels have been built．The hotels are air-conditioned，naturally．In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon，every room has at least one picture window．Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment （娱乐） of young and old．
What are people eating now？People are still eating food．They haven't yet started to take on heir （继承） supply of energy directly as electrical current or as nuclear power．They may some day．But many foods now come in pill form，and the food that goes into the pill continues to come mainly from green plants．
Since there are several times as many people in the world today as there were a hundred years ago，most of our planet's surface has to be filled．The deserts are irrigated with water and crops are no longer destroyed by pests．The harvest is always good．
Farming，of course，is very highly developed．Very few people have to work on the farm．It is possible to run the farm by just pushing a few buttons now and then．
People are now largely vegetarians （素食者）．You see，as the number of people increases，the number of animal decreases．Therefore，the people have to be vegetarians and we are healthier both in our bodies and in our minds，and we know the causes and cure of disease and pain，and it is possible to get rid of diseases．No one has to be ill any more．
Such would be our life in 2060．

Persevance，the quality of never giving up when facing great challenges，lies behind every great achievement in anyone's life．With perseverance a lame boy can learn to swim； with persistence a conquered country will win freedom．
Only with strong determination can people fight their way to final victories．Many a famous man has the same experience．They have obtained their status because they have had the will to overcome numerous difficulties．Outstanding athletes go all out to train themselves．Their w illpower is beyond imagination．We all have read of great musicians，writers and inventors have created or discovered breakthroughs recorded in history．Always they have said that they owe all their success to perseverance．As to students，quite a big number of them have been successful through perseverance．However，acertain group of them just stop half way and their previous efforts turn out to be fruitless．
The same is true of many rich businessmen．What we usually see are their achievements，but once we go behind the seenes we will find that they have put in a lot of continual steady efforts Of all countless exarmples the story of Colonel Saunders is perhaps one of the most
outstanding．The 65-year-old man from Kentucky had a dream，to start a chain of fried chicken restaurants all over the world．To rcalize his dream，he knew that he needed a restaurant to go into partnership with him to open the first restaurant and to fry chicken according to the secret recipe （配方）he had．Colonel Saunders had knocked on 1008doors before he finally found a proper person to co-operate with．It is doubtful whether many of us would have had the perseverance to knock even a hundred doors．
We can conclude that success comes to anyone who keeps working perseveringly while of perseverance can only result in frustration and failure．
