Suddenly, Jose saw something on the floor. What do you think he saw? He saw a beautiful painting lying there. Jose showed the painting to the director(馆长)of the museum.

 “Let's call several museums to check and see if it's a stolen painting, said the director.

  If you have a brother or sister, you already know you are different from each other.You live together in the same house and with the same parents, but you have different personalities

  Why is this?One possible reason is the way your parents treat you.

  First–born children receive all the attention from their parents.Most families have twice as many photos of a first–born than any other child.Parents usually give first–borns more responsibility(责任)and depend on them to take care of younger brothers and sisters.As a result, first–borns are often responsible, hard–wording and serious.They often want to do well at school and work.There are more first–born American presidents than second or last-born children-for example, George W.Bush, George Washington, and Lyndon Baines Johnson.

  When a second child arrives, parents are not so excited.The second child has to compete with the first–born for the parents' attention and love.These children often choose different sports and hobbies to do well at school and work, but have to be creative to get their family's attention.They are often friendly and cool.Many famous talk-show hosts were born last.

  Most American students have said goodbye to fancy(高级的)fruits these days.In school canteens across the country, cheaper fruits like apples and oranges have taken their places.

  “People are afraid to spend now,” said Linda Morrow, who owns a shoe and handbag store.“They don't know what the future will bring.”

  During the financial crisis(金融危机), several of the country's biggest banks have been forced to sell or close.This has made lots of Americans afraid to buy expensive goods.

  This month the US government agreed on a $700 billion plan to try to save the financial market.But no one is sure whether it will help or not.President George W.Bush has warned it will take some time.
