In front of him is a to-do list of the important events for the day, and it is provided by the computer too. According to Tom's request, the computer serves a list of possible dishes. All the dishes are nice.

    As Tom eats breakfast, the computer reminds him to reply to Lucy. Before Tom finishes his next bite, Lucy's computer receives the message. Then Tom goes to the supermarket. The store's system checks his car when he drives to the pickup area and greets him by name. "Good morning, Tom! Your order is in Case4. Thank you for shopping.'' When Tom removes his order from Case 4, all trades are completed automatically(自动地)over the information superhighway. That is, the money is electronically paid into the bank.

As is known to us, microbes (微生物) help us do lots of things here on the earth. They can make bread rise and treat some illnesses among many other things. Researchers have done lots of experiments (实验) with microbes in space. And their latest findings show that these microbes could be very helpful for us to learn more about space.

Last summer, the European Space Agency did an experiment at the International Space Station. In this experiment, three kinds of microbes were tested on their ability to pull REES (稀土元素) out of rocks in three different kinds of gravity (重力).

This way of using microbes to get materials from rocks is known as bio-mining (生物开采). We've been doing it for some time here on the earth, mainly to get gold and other materials. But here comes a serious question. Would it work in space? These researchers found the proper answer in their experiments.

The results were encouraging. Of the three kinds of microbes. one was able to pull 14 kinds of REES out of rocks in all three kinds of gravity. The rocks used in the experiment were made of a kind of rock that is commonly found on the earth, Mars and the moon.

While the results might be useful, how can they help us learn more about space? For one thing, space research in the future will require us to find materials on the moon and Mars. Therefore, we are able to use these things to continue our research efforts. And bio-mining can help us do this cheaply and easily. It's one of the exciting news to the scientific field.

You've probably been told many times that exercise is good for your health, and it's believed that more is naturally better. But there comes a point. Is it possible to overdo it?

The first thing to ask yourself is"Why are you exercising?" if you're wondering whether you've exercised too much. "Once you get past five hours of energetic exercise every week, you're not exercising for health; you're exercising for performance. And it's possible to make your body too tired to recover(恢复), " said Kristen Dieffenbach, an exercise scientist. 

You exercise, and your body can get healthier, stronger and faster. These improvements don't happen during the exercise itself, but happen during the recovery period. 

As long as your body is able to keep up with this repair work, your exercise will continue to help your performance. But when the stress from your exercise builds up more than your capacity(容量) to recover, you are exercising too much. 

What makes things difficult is that the line between training hard and overtraining is unclear. The most important signs come from your feelings of happiness. Other classic signs of overtraining include trouble sleeping, feeling tired and being able to catch colds. 

If you find that you're having to push yourself to do exercise you used to enjoy, or are feeling guilty(内疚的) about not exercising enough, those are other signs that you've overdone it.
