After an hour, Mark sits under a tree. “I’m going to stop here for a moment,” he tells Fay. “OK,” she answers. Then Mark sees something on the ground. “What’s that?” he thinks.
It is a yellow stone. Mark picks it up. Then he starts to clean it with his hands.
“But Iknowthis stone,” he thinks.
①“It comes from…from…” Suddenly there is a white light in his eyes. Mark closes them. The light is strong. Now there is a loud wind in his ears. He cannot hear or see anything. “What’shappening?” he thinks.
Ten seconds later the light and the wind stop. Mark opens his eyes. He is standing on a beach. He can see hundreds of ships and men. Behind him there is a beautiful city with high walls. “Where am I?” he thinks. He puts the yellow stone in his pocket. Then one of the men says to him, “Boy! Come here!”
“Me?” Mark walks across the beach to a long, black ship. “Carry this,” the man says.
He gives Mark a lot of wood. Then he gets off the ship. “Follow me,” he says. Mark follows him. The man is very tall and has a short, brown beard. “I don’t know your face,”
he says. “Are you new here?” “Y-yes,” Mark answers. “That’s right. I’m new here.”
“My name is Andros,” says the man. He and Mark walk for another ten minutes.
Then they climb a small hill. At the top Mark stops. There, in front of them, is a big wooden horse. Andros sees Mark’s face and smiles. “Well…what do you think of it?” he asks. Mark does not answer, and Andros says, “This horse is going to win the war for us Greeks.”
They walk down the hill. A lot of men are working under the horse. One of them talks to Andros. “There’s a problem,” he says. “We can’t find a stone for the second eye.

That evening Mark sits near a big fire on the beach. There is an old woman beside him. Her name is Ana and she is a cook. She tells Mark lots of stories. Stories about Greece, the war, and the beautiful princess - Helen. In the end she goes to bed.
“Goodbye, boy,” she says. “Come and see me again one day. Come and see me again.”
Next morning the horse is ready. Greek soldiers pull it to the gates of Troy. Then they leave it there.
Inside the horse there are forty Greeks. They wait all afternoon under the hot, yellow sun. Mark is sitting in the horse’s head. “What happens now?” he thinks.
Suddenly the gates open. Trojan soldiers walk out. They pull the horse inside and shut the gates again.
Mark can hear the Trojans. “Why are the Greeks giving us this horse?” asks one.
“Do you think they want to end the war?” “Yes! Look!” says a soldier on top of the city walls. “Their ships are leaving!” After that the Trojans eat, sing and dance all evening.
Then they go to bed very late and Troy is quiet.
At that moment the Greeks climb out of the horse. Four men go to the gates and open them. A minute later there are thousands of Greek soldiers in the city. They and their ships areback! They run from one building to another. In five minutes Troy is on fire. Mark watches all this. Suddenly he sees a beautiful woman. She is running along the city walls. “It’s Helen,” he thinks, “Helen of Troy!”
At that moment Andros says, “Follow me, boy.” He runs down a small street very fast. Mark follows, but the street is full of smoke. After a minute he cannot see anything.
“Andros!” he says. “Where are you?”
“Mark! Mark! It’s 4 o’clock. The bus is leaving in a minute.” Fay is looking down at Mark.
After a moment he suddenly wakes up. Fay asks, “Are you OK? Your face is white.

次の英文を読み,後の問いに答えなさい。
For most of history, there were no computers. Life was very different before computers existed. It was hard to work out new ideas and to share them with others.
Now,①our computers help us to work out ideas. They can do math problems very fast.
They can help us organize information so that we can understand it better. They can even draw pictures for us. Computers can also help us to share our ideas. With email, we can share ideas with anyone in the world. We can put pictures or written information on the Internet so that anyone can see it. But computers were not always like they are today.
The first computer was made around 60 years ago. It was called ENIAC. ENIAC was very different from the computers we know today.( ② )
Later on, computers became smaller and smaller, and faster and faster. Computers also became cheap enough for anyone to buy. Around 25 years ago, people who were not computer scientists began to buy computers. These computers were called Personal Computers, or PCs. PCs were very popular for businesses, but most people were not interested in having one in their home. Other than for playing games, people did not know what to use computers for.
Around 15 years ago, the Internet started becoming more popular. The Internet changed everyone’s mind about computers. With the Internet, there were more things which people could use computers for. Since the birth of the Internet, life has changed a lot for everyone. Nowadays, we can talk, learn, work, buy things, and play games on the Internet.
