Read the quotation from a science fiction novel. Which planet do you think it is describing? What are” the small green pieces of paper’? What does the author think about them?
-
“This planet has-or rather had- a problem, which was this: most of the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much of the time. Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movements of small green pieces of paper, which is odd because on the whole it wasn’t the small green pieces of paper that were unhappy.”
Douglas Adams
