Margie even wrote about it that night in her diary. On the page headed May 17, 2157, she wrote, “Today Tommy found a real book!”2.
19、It was a very old book. Margies grandfather once said that when he was a little boy his grandfather told him that there was a time when all stories were printed on paper. They turned the pages, which were yellow and crinkly, and it was awfully funny to read words that stood still instead of moving t

And then, when they turned back to the page before, it had the same words on it that it had had when they read it the first time.The Fun They HadDetailed reading Issac Asimov 3. “Gee,” said Tommy, “what a waste! When youre through with the book, yo

26、hoping they would take the teacher away altogether. So she said to Tommy, “Why would anyone write about school?” 12. Tommy looked at her with very superior eyes, “Because its not our kind of school, stupid. This is the old kind of school that they had hundreds and hundreds of years ago.” He added lo
27、ftily, pronouncing the word carefully, “Centuries ago.” Detailed reading 13. Margie was hurt. “Well, I dont know what kind of school they had all that time ago.” She read the book over his shoulder for a while, and then said, “Anyway, they had a teacher.”14. “Sure they had a teacher, but it wasnt a
28、regular teacher. It was a man.”15. “A man? How could a man be a teacher?”16. “Well, he just told the boys and girls things and gave them homework and asked them questions.”17. “A man isnt smart enough.”18. “Sure he is. My father knows as much as my teacher.”19. Margie wasnt prepared to dispute that.
29、 She said, “I wouldnt want a strange man in my house to teach me.”Detailed reading 20. Tommy screamed with laughter. “You dont know much, Margie. The teachers didnt live in the house. They had a special building and all the kids went there.” 21. “And all the kids learned the same thing?”22. “Sure, i
30、f they were the same age.”23. “But my mother says a teacher has to be adjusted to fit the minds of each boy and girl it teaches and that each kid has to be taught differently.”24. They werent even half-finished when Margies mother called, “Margie! School!”25. Margie looked up. “Not yet, Mamma.”26. “
31、Now!” said Mrs. Jones. “And its probably time for Tommy, too.”Detailed reading 29. Margie went into the schoolroom. It was right next to her bedroom, and the mechanical teacher was on and waiting for her. It was always on at the same time every day except Saturday and Sunday, because her mother said
32、 little girls learned better if they learned at regular hours.30. The screen was lit up, and it said: “Todays arithmetic lesson is on the addition of proper fractions. Please insert yesterdays homework in the proper slot.” 27. Margie said to Tommy, “Can I read the book some more with you after schoo
33、l?”28. “Maybe,” he said nonchalantly. He walked away whistling, the dusty old book tucked beneath his arm.Detailed reading Detailed reading31. Margie did so with a sigh. She was thinking about the old school they had when her grandfathers grandfather was a little boy. All the kids from the whole nei
