        Have you ever imagined travelling to the deep undersea and staying there for some days or even some weeks? Many people may think it impossible. But those who have gone to live in Saturation City—a new undersea city, will tell you it's quite possible. There will be no suffering. In fact it is so comfortable that it has been described as "a silk adventure".

        It's not easy for companies to design undersea cities in the past. The sea bottom is too deep, which has caused problems with communicating between underwater and the sea surface. This difficulty has been resolved by the one-person or family shuttle-submarines(潜水艇) which will always be ready to take people to the surface. Every one will be transported quickly and safely to their destination.

        The city designers have special concern about the security of all the families. Careful entry procedures(进入程序) are required whenever people enter or leave Saturation City. There are advanced computers monitoring(监控)all the houses and streets. No object can be removed freely by strangers. Only when the robot cleaner touches the objects can they be moved. This new and revolutionary piece of computer equipment comes free with every house. It will certainly add to your quality of life in Saturation City.

        There will be no household worries in Saturation City. Each house comes with its own robot for family use only. Your details will be programmed into its computer so that it will only answer your family's commands. So a spotless house is yours as soon as you move in.

        We hope that the above information is enough for you to decide to experience the journey deep undersea.
