18、 cold morning in winter, when I was a little boy, a smiling man with an ax on his shoulder stopped me, saying: “My pretty boy, has your father a grindstone(砂轮)”“Yes, sir,” said I.“You are a fine little fellow!” said the man. “Will you let me grind(磨) my ax?”Pleased with the flattery, I answered, “Oh

19、, yes, sir. The grindstone is down in the shop.”Patting me on my head, he said, “Will you get me some hot water?” I ran and brought the hot water.“How old are you, and what is your name?” he asked without waiting for a reply, “Im sure you are one of the finest boys I have ever seen. Will you turn th

20、e grindstone a few minutes for me?”Hearing the flattery again, I went to work with a will. It was a new ax, and I worked hard until I was almost tired to death. The school bell rang, but I could not get away, because the ax was not half ground.At last, however, it was sharpened. Then the man turned

21、to me and said, “Now, you little rascal(小坏蛋), youve played truant(逃课)! Run to school, or youll be sorry! “Alas!” thought I. “It was hard enough to turn a grindstone this old day, but now to be called a rascal is too much.”The memory of turning the grindstone that winter morning sank into my mind. I

25、s axBSometimes life gets a little dull. What used to be fun and different becomes boring. That is the time to look for something new. It is the time for a big idea to get your mind off everyday life. So why not search for extra-terrestrial（外星的）intelligence? Or even better, why not get your computer

26、to do it for you? Over two million people have joined the Search for Extra-terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) project. Based in California, the SETI project analyses information taken from a giant radio telescope based in South America. Its task is to look for signals from outer space that might prove

27、that life exists on other planets. Processing this information is far too big a job for one computer. So the SETI project workers divide the work among volunteers who visit their website. Each computer gets some information to work out from the SETI network through the Internet. This process is ofte

28、n known as “metacomputing”. It is a wonderful thought. You are sleeping, eating a meal or going out with friends. All this time, your computer is searching the stars for signs that might show something is out there trying to get in touch. Volunteers are proud of being involved in the SETI project. I

29、t shows that they understand the potential of computing. They know that it is more than just a way of working or playing games. Metacomputing may also be creating intelligence as well as looking for it. This idea is based on the theory that human intelligence is created by the way in which different

30、 parts of the brain communicate with each other. As the saying goes, “The whole is more than the sum of its parts.” People who join the SETI project sometimes wonder whether their computer will become part of a huge network that has learned to think for itself.60.
