The world's first “flying car” will soon appear in the market — It will be yours for just £127,000.
The Terrafugia Transition is a light sport plane with four wheels (轮子) and foldable (可折叠的)wings. It can fly up through the skies just like a regular plane, then land on the ground, fold up its two wings and drive down the road at highway speeds.
It is 19 feet long and can fly a distance (距离) of 460 miles, with a top speed of 115mph in the air and 60mph on the highway. According to early reports, the plane uses common gas — no rocket fuels (燃料) are necessary. It gets its power through the 100 horsepower four — stroke Rotax 912S engine(发动机).
It is about as wide as most normal cars except the folded gliders. The Terrafugia Transition can be put into most garages(车库) and drive normally on the road. A special code from a pilot's license is needed to get the wings to unfold.
Interested pilots (yes, you need to be a licensed flyer or a driver with a pilot's license (执照) to buy one) can get an order of the flying car (or the highway plane) for £6,500. It is planned to be finished towards the end of the year.

Money VS Family
Rama's family is very big. He has three kids, two sons and a daughter.

Though Rama's family is one of the richest families in the city, he still works so hard. One day, Rama's family went to their beach house to spend their vacation. His daughter asked, "{#blank#}2{#/blank#}"
Rama replied, "Yes, my dear, tomorrow for sure, {#blank#}3{#/blank#}I'm tired of work and need refreshment!"
The whole family became very happy.

One of the biggest mistakes a person can make is to try not to make mistakes. As you make decisions in your life, you will very likely make some mistakes. But making mistakes is a big part of how you gain(获得) experience.
A simple example. You do poorly on a test because you didn't study hard enough. One bad test is not the end of the world, but it can quickly teach you that if you don't study, you won't do well.
Mistakes sometimes lead to arguments(争论) between people. But if you learn to understand things from another person's point of view, you will be able to learn very quickly from the mistakes you make and the mistakes you think other people have made. You can turn mistakes into opportunities(机会) .
For example, if you learn to understand others' feelings and problems, you will understand the people you work with much better instead of getting angry. And you will learn to talk about problems and be more patient with people you don't agree with—a friend, or a mate in your workroom or company.
So next time you think you've made a mistake, stop and ask yourself what you've learned from it, and what you will do differently in the future.
Show me the person in the room who has made a lot of mistakes, and I'll show you the person who has probably learned a lot.
