In a hall, a lecturer was giving a lecture to his students on stress management. At the beginning of the speech,he 41 a glass of water and asked the audience, “How 42 do you think this glass of water is?”
The students’ answers 43 from 20g to 500g.
“Actually,it does not matter on the absolute 44 . But it depends on how 45 you hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it is OK. If I hold it for a(n) 46 , I will have an ache in my right arm. If I hold it for a day, you will have to 47 an ambulance. It is exactly the 48 weight, but the longer I hold it, the 49 it becomes.” Hearing these words,the whole audience became silent, lost in thought.

So before you 56 home from work tonight, put the burden of 57 down. Don’t carry it back 58 . You can pick it up tomorrow.

This summer vacation,Xiaokai,a high school student in Guangzhou,planned to spend his time surfing the Internet,playing basketball and watching TV.
But Xiaokai"s parents tried to make him read some classics at home.In their yees,reading the classics would do his son much more good than other activities.
Though his room was full of the classic books,he had just finished reading one of them,The Old Man and the Sea.
"I picked up the book just because it was not very thick,"he said."Nothing impressed me at all after reading."
Xiaokai is not alone in today"s China.Now most of the teenagers are fond of reading martial arts stories,cartoons and popular magazines.Theose classics cannot get them interested at all.
Parents areworrying about this phenomenon(现象).They always tell their chilren to read the classsics,which is supposed to help their children improve their academic studies.
Ms Li made a classics reading plan for her daughter,but her daughter refused to carry it away.She just finished less than 10 pages of the Dream of Red Chamber(阁楼) during the whole summer vacation. Ms Li sighed,"What"s wrong with the children today?"
It is the same with teachers.One middle school Chinese teacher once prepared a chart(图表) of Interpersonal relationship in the best-known novel Dream of Red Chamber for his students. They were asked to remember how the characters are related to each other while preparing for the final exam.
To improve the situation in which the fastfood culture (快餐文化) seems to be winning over teenagers,parents are expected to understand their children"s interests, and guide them to read the books instead of forcing them,according to some experts.It is not necessary for the kids to read the classics in their childhood.They can read classics after having their own life experience.

For many year,motorcycle riding was considered a male sport.Women usually rode on the seat behind the men driving the two - wheeled vehicle.Now more and more women are taking the front seat.
More than twenty million people in the United States ride motorcycles.The number of female motorcyclists has increased greatly over the past few years.More than ten percent of motorcycle owners in the United States are women.
We spoke with "Lisa Russell,Briggit Pope,Rayna Evans and Angela Meeks-Odom".They are on the executive committee of Lady Sport Riders motorcycle club in Largo,Maryland.They say they ride for more than fun.They say it gives women a wonderful feeling,a sense of freedom and control.
In 1998 the number of female bikers rose sharply.Lady Sport Riders began in 1999 in the Washington,D.C. area.The women formed the organization to share,their love of motorcyle riding.They say female motorcycle clubs let women share a strong sisterhood.Like other motorcycle clubs,the members of Lady Sport Riders also help their community(社区).
Female riders have helped change motorcycle culture.The Motorcycle Industry Council says more than five years ago factories began producing equipment that makes riding more pleasant for women.Some bikes now have smaller,softer seats and controls that are easier to reach. Modern clothes for riding look good and still provide protection.Besides,women are now riding motorcycles that are as powerful as the ones men ride.Lady Sprot Riders believe women have earned their place in the sport of motorcycle riding.When speaking of male motorcyclists,the members of the club say:"They Made the Game…We Came to Play!"
