LONDON Thursday July 26 (Reuters)-Eddy missed his girlfriend Anna so much that he flew back to
Britain from Australia to propose(求婚)to her. The problem is that she did the same in the opposite
direction.
He and Anna even managed to miss each other when they sat in the same airport waiting room in
Singapore at the same time to wait for connecting flights.
Anna, heartbroken when she arrived at Eddy's Sydney flat to find he had flown to London , told The
Times: "It was as though someone was playing a cruel joke on us."
"He is the most romantic person I have ever known .I think our problem is that we are both quite
impulsive(沖動(dòng)的)people. We are always trying to surprise each other."
After an 11,000-mile flight across the globe, she was greeted by Eddy's astonished roommate asking
what she was doing there.
Eddy, a 27-year-old engineer ,had taken a year off to travel round Australia .But he was missing
Anna ,a 26-year-old secretary, so much that he got a job on a Sydney building site (工地) and started
saving for a surprise.
He then flew home to Britain and went to her flat armed with an engagement (訂婚) ring, wine and
flowers.
"I really missed Anna and I'd been thinking about her all the time. I was so excited when she phoned
me from Australia," he said.
Eddy then asked Anna to marry him on the phone. "I didn't know whether to laugh or cry but I
accepted," she said.
Anna was given a tour of Sydney by Eddy's friends before going back home .Eddy had to stay in
Britain for two weeks because he could not change his ticket.

Federal regulators Wednesday approved a plan to create a nationwide emergency alert
(警報(bào))system using text messages delivered to cell phones.
Text messages have exploded in popularity in recent years, particularly among young people.
The wireless industry's trade association, CTIA, estimates (估計(jì)) more than 48 billion text
messages are sent each month.
The plan comes from the Warning Alert and Response Network Act, a 2006 federal law
that requires improvement to the nation's emergency alert system. The act tasked the Federal
Communications Commission(FCC) with coming up with new ways to alert the public about
emergencies.
"The ability to deliver accurate and timely warnings and alerts through cell phones and other
mobile services is an important next step in our efforts to help ensure that the American public
has the information they need to take action to protect themselves and their families before, and
during disasters and other emergencies, "FCC Chairman Kevin Martin said following approval
of the plan.
Participation in the alert system by carriers-telecommuni-cations companies-is voluntary, but
it has received solid support from the wireless industry.
The program would be optional for cell phone users. They also may not be charged for receiving
alerts.
There would be three different types of messages, according to the rules.
The first would be a national alert from the president,likely involving a terrorist attack or natural
disaster. The second would involve"approaching threats", which could include natural disasters like
hurricanes or storms or even university shootings, The third would be reserved for child abduction
(綁架) emergencies, or so-called Amber Alerts.
The service could be in place by 2010.
A, They must accept the alert service.
B. They may enjoy the alert service for free.
C. They must send the alerts to others.
D. They may choose the types of messages.
