27、sire to shop and spend money. They experience great tension which drives them to shop and spend money and they feel a “rush” during the time they are occupied with the shopping activity. Extreme or addictive shopping may result from long-time unpleasant feelings, of which anxiety, pain and shame are

28、 common ones. When we feel bad inside, we often do something to make ourselves feel better. In this case, we often go shopping.A few people shop to relieve their boredom or emptiness. For some people, the motivation is a desire for status, power, beauty or success. Some love to shop as it makes them

29、 feel valued in the eyes of the shop assistants. Others shop simply because it makes them forget, at least temporarily, tension, fear or unhappiness in their life.

I was born at the end of the Reining Age(剎車時代),

36、 just as the Earths rotation(旋轉(zhuǎn)) was coming to a final stop.The Reining lasted for 42 years, three years longer than the Unity Government had planned. My mother once told me about the time our family witnessed the last sunset. The Sun had ever so slowly crept toward the horizon, almost as if it had

37、stopped moving altogether. In the end, it took three days and three nights to finally set. Naturally, that was the end of all “days” and all “nights”. The Eastern Hemisphere(半球) was covered in weak light for a long time then, perhaps for a dozen years or so with the Sun hiding just beyond the horizo

38、n its rays reflected by half of the sky. It was during that long sunset that I was born.Dusk did not mean darkness. The Northern Hemisphere was lit up by the Earth Engines. These giant engines had been raised all across Asia and North America; only the solid plates beneath those two continents could

39、 resist the great pushing forces they exerted. There were about 12,000 Earth Engines built and distributed across the Asian and American plains.From my home I could see the bright plasma plumes(等離子氣柱) of several hundred Earth Engines. Just imagine a titanic palace, one as large as the Parthenon on t

40、he Acropolis. Now imagine countless titanic pillars rising from that palace, reaching to the heavens, each releasing brilliant, bluish-white light like a titanic shining tube. And then there is you; you are a microbe on the palaces floor. This only begins to paint the picture of the world we lived i

41、n.This picture, however, is not yet complete. In order to survive the melting temperature of the expanding sun, we have to push the Earth away from it. First, the Earth must be stopped from rotating. Only the forces acting tangentially(正切地) to the Earths rotation could slow it, so the Earth Engines

42、had to be built to a specific angle. Those gigantic pillars of light were leaning to that angle. Now imagine what that meant for our palace, with its pillars all leaning on the point of falling down! Many who came from the Southern Hemisphere went mad when suddenly seeing this awesome view.Worse tha

43、n the view was the burning heat released by the Earth Engines. Outdoors the temperature was stuck at around 160 to 180 degrees, forcing us to wear special suits just to leave the house. The extremely high temperatures often brought pouring rains. It was always a terrifying scene when the beam of an

44、Earth Engine cut through dark clouds. The clouds scattered the brilliant, bluish-white light of the beam, erupting it into endless rainbow light that covered the entire sky like white-hot magma(巖漿).To my generation, born in the Northern Hemisphere, all of this was perfectly normal and natural, just

45、like the Sun, stars and Moon had been to generations before the Reining Age. We called the entire history of the human race that had come before us the Pre-Solar Age; what a fascinating and golden era that had truly been!The Reining Age left the earth with a horrifying result. The sea tides, quicken

46、ed by the Earth Engines, had swallowed two out of every three cities in the Northern Hemisphere; then the global increase in temperatures melted the polar icecap, resulting in floods that spread to the Southern Hemisphere. Thirty years earlier my grandfather had witnessed giant 300-foot waves that h

47、ad engulfed Shanghai. Even now, he could never tell us about it without his gaze slipping into a thousand-mile stare.Our planet had already changed beyond recognition before it even set out on its journey. Who knew what hardships were waiting for us on our long travels through outer space?1、What hap
