Isabel Allende was born in 1942 in Peru to Chilean parents.Her parents separated when she was very young, and she spent a few years of her childhood in Chile with her mother, two siblings and grandfather. When Allende was ll, her mother remarried and Allende spent the rest of her childhood in Bolivia and Lebanon.
Before her first book was published,Allende worked as a journalist.She co-founded the first
feminist magazine,Paula,in Chile,in 1967,worked in television,wrote and produced a play,and wrote children's stories and magazines.In 1973,Allende and her family moved to Venezuela,where theylivedforthenext13years.
In 1981,the foundations of her first novel,The House of the Spirits,were laid:after learning
thather99-year-oldgrandfatherwas dying,Allende wrote a letter to him.This eventually became The House of the Spirits,a magical-realist family long story.
Allende had along,productive and celebrated writing career.Over four decades she has published 24 books,which have been translated into more than 40languagesandsoldmorethan 75millioncopies,making her one of the best-selling authors in the world.She is a fairly rare author who has achieved widespread popularity among general readers and acclaim among literary critics.She herself and her books have been the subject of many academic literary studies,and she's an essential part of the Latin American Spanish literary canon(经典).

In the far,far future,bicycles and perhaps skates may be run by jet power,and a new thing to ride may be a small flying saucer(飞碟).Imagine a race between them!
There may be telepathy helmets(心灵感应头盔)that send thought waves from your brain to that of your friend miles a way.You just think a thought and your friend knows it!You can have secrets with each other that nobody else can turn in on!
What about the food of the future Scientists think that much of it will be artificial —made in factories from such surprising things as coal,limestone,air and water.The artificial food will be
healthful because all the things that you need to live along and healthy life will be put into it.
The future hospitals will probably have“body banks” that can give you almost any new part you need to keep on living.Peopleofthefuturemaylivetobealotolderthan1ooyears.
What about highways of the future Well,a very small child probably will be able to drive a car.Electric signals will hold each car on the right road to get wherever the“driver”wants to go.And it probably will be impossible for cars to crash together.Controls that won't even have to be touched will make all speeding cars miss each other or will put on the brakes.Driving cars will be as safe as being at home.
But maybe the most wonderful surprise in the future will be weather control.Cities may have giant plastic domes(圆顶罩)over them to keep out snow,rain,or storms.When you plan a picnic in a park,you won't have to worry about rain.It will rain only when the“weatherman”thinks it is necessary to fresh the air inside the city.All other days will be fair and warm.
The future should be a wonderful time in which to live and the time we are living in now is also a wonderful future to the people who lived 1oo years ago.

Ways to Save Money on Healthy Food
Contrary to what you may have heard,eating healthy doesn't have to be really expensive.Here are Expert tips on how to have a healthy diet on a budget(预算).

Shop at your local farmers' market
37 Shopping produce that is in season is a lot cheaper than buying produce that isn't,and the best place to know what's in season is at a farmers’ market.Farmers’ markets are budget-friendly because farmers bring their goods directly to customers without interference(介人)from shipping agents,retailers and other go-betweens , 38 .
Prepare meals in advance
Sometimes the last thing you want to do after a long day is cook.To avoid reaching for the takeout menu in these situations,set aside one day a week to meal preparing. 39 . To keep it simple and healthy,experts suggest having one source of protein in each meal, at least one vegetable and a whole-grain.Making healthy meals in this way saves you time and money,and makes it easy to eat healthy.
Stock up on frozen produce
Buying frozen fruits and vegetables is a great way to eat healthy on a budget.Frozen produce costs about3o% less than fresh produce.Plus,fruits and vegetables will last a lot longer and usually can be chopped(切)and ready to go,so you don't have to spend time washing and cutting. 40 .
A.Cook at home
B.Eat less meat and dairy
C.Meal preparing doesn't have to be difficult
D.Make sure you use your produce fully and try not to waste anything
E.Visit your local farmer's market for fresh and in-season fruits and vegetables
