Next is temp.mp and temp.tex.
After mposted tmep.mp file, I got two eps files: temp.1 and temp.2.
I can copy temp.1 into temp_1.mps, copy temp.2 into temp_2.mps.
Then in temp.tex file, using
\includegraphics{temp_1.mps}
\includegraphics{temp_2.mps}
I can encapsulate eps files into pdf file by
latex temp.tex
dvipdf temp.tex(or dvipdfmx temp.tex)
or
pdflatex temp.tex
Now, I have two questions:
1. why does "dvipdfm temp.tex" fail?
2. If I want to use temp.1 and temp.2 directly in tex file, how should I do?

Next is temp.mp.

beginfig(2)
drawarrow (-1cm, 0)--(5cm, 0);
drawarrow (0, -1cm)--(0, 5cm);
label.llft(btex $0$ etex, (0,0));
