The famous director of a big and expensive movie planned to film a beautiful sunset over the ocean, so that the audience could see his hero and heroine in front of it at the end of the film as they said goodbye to each other for ever. He sent camera team out one evening to film the sunset for him.
The next morning he said to the men, “Have you provided me with that sunset?”

“Well,” one of the men answered, “we are on the east coast here, and the sun sets in the west. We can get you a sunrise over the sea, if necessary, but not a sunset.”
“But I want a sunset!” the director shouted. “Go to the airport, take the next flight to the west coast, and get one.”
But then a young secretary had an idea. “Why don’t you photograph a sunrise,” she suggested, “and then play it backwards, Then it’ll look like a sunset.” “That’s a very good idea!” the director said.

The camera team went out early the next morning and filmed a bright sunrise over the beach in the middle of a beautiful bay. Then at nine o’clock they took it to the director. “Here it is, Sir,” they said, and give it to him. He was very pleased.
They all went into the studio. “All right,” the director explained, “now our hero and heroine are going to say goodbye. Run the film backwards so that we can see the sunset behind them.”

Mr. Andrews was waiting for a subway train in the city. The train pulled into the station and stopped. As Andrews was getting ready to board the train, he saw an elderly blind man fall to the tracks (站台). David Schnair, aged 75, had mistaken the space between two subway cars for a door, while feeling his way with a cane. Instead of ending up inside the train, Schnair fell off the platform and landed under the train.
Andrews jumped down to the tracks to save Schnair. He pulled the man to safety. Onlookers immediately declared Andrews a hero. Messages began to pour in from all over the country. Some people sent checks. The largest was for $3,000. President called Andrews and wished him a Merry Christmas and a good new year.
Andrews had been on the subway because he was returning from a job interview. He probably would have been hired anyway, but all the good publicity (宣传) made it a sure thing.
After about a week of newspaper stories and donations of food, money and gifts for his children, Andrews faded from limelight. Most people assumed that the story had come to a happy ending, but it didn’t quite happen that way. Andrews did start his new job, but the company moved to New Jersey. Andrews didn’t have any way to get to work, so he had to give up. It wasn’t long before he was back to job hunting and being discouraged again. Few newspapers, however, bothered to tell their readers what happened to Mr. Andrews after he became a hero.

Sometimes I dream about life in the future. What will it be like? Perhaps some people will go to the moon for a holiday, and some scientists will live under the sea. Maybe we will have videophones in every home. We can have a medical examination or do some shopping without leaving our homes.
And I’m sure there’ll be more educational programs on the radio or TV, so perhaps some children won’t need to go to school every day. They’ll study at home.
No people like doing housework. Maybe in the future each family will have a robot. Every day we can tell the robot what to do – shopping, housework and so on. I believe the dream will come true some day.
