For years and years people have been saying that the railways are dead.“We can do without railways” people say,as if motorcars and planes made the railways unnecessary.We all keep hearing that trains are slow,that they lose money,that they’re dying.But this is far from the truth.In these days of expensive oil,the railways have become highly competitive with motorcars and planes.If you want to carry people or goods from place to place,they’re cheaper than planes.And they have much in common with planes.A plane goes in a strange line and so does a railway.What is more,it takes you from the heart of a city into the heart of another.It doesn’t 1eave you as a plane does,miles and miles from the city center.It doesn’t hold you up as a car does,in endless traffic jams.And a single train can carry goods which no plane or motorcar could ever do.Far from being dead,the railways are very much alive.Modern railway lines give you a smooth,untroubled journey.Where else can you eat well,sleep in comfort,feel safe and enjoy the scene while you are traveling at speed at the same time? And we are only at the beginning.For we have just entered the age of super-fast trains, traveling at 1 50 miles an hour and more.Soon we will be wondering why we spent so much on motorways we can't use because we have not enough money to buy the oil and planes we can't fly in for the same reason.

After the earthquake hit northeast Japan on March 11, many moving stories that I saw with my own eyes happened around me.

A man was holding a sign(招牌) that said, “Please use our  39 .” He was  40  his house for people who were homeless to have a rest .
My friend wanted to  41  others. He stood in the cold with a sign “If you’re okay with a motorcycle, I will  42  you to your house.” And then I saw him take one gentleman home, all the way to a faraway place!
Then next day I drove to  43  my car with gas. There is a lack (缺乏) of  44  now after the quake and many gasoline stations are either closed or have very  45  lines.

Is that all right?” “ 49 . I’m just glad that we are all able to  50  with each other .” I said. His smile gave me so much comfort.
I saw a man at the evacuation (疏散) center burst into  51 when people brought food to him. It was the first time in three days that food was brought to their center.

For years and years people have been saying that the railways are dead. “ We can do without railways.” People say…as if motorcars and planes have made the railways unnecessary. We all keep hearing that trains are slow, that they lose money, and that they’re dying .But this is far from the truth: in these days of expensive oil, the railways have become highly competitive with motorcars and planes. If you want to carry people or goods from place to place, they are cheaper than planes. And they have much in common with planes. A plane goes in a straight line and so does a railway. What is more, it takes you from the heart of a city into the heart of another. It doesn’t leave you up as a plane does, miles and miles from the city center. It doesn’t hold you up as a car does, in endless traffic jams, and a single train carry goods which a plane or a motorcar could never do.
Far from being dead, the railways are very much alive. Modern railway lines give you a smooth, untroubled journey. Where else can you eat well, sleep in comfort, feel safe and enjoy the scene while you are traveling at speed at the same time? And we are only at the beginning, for we have just entered the age of super-fast trains, trains traveling at 150 miles an hour and more. Soon we will be wondering why we spent so much on motorcars we can’t use because we have not enough money to buy the oil and planes we can’t fly for the same reason..
