10．When couples get married，they usually plan to have children．Sometimes，however，a couple can not have a child of their own．In this case，they may decide to adopt（收养） a child．In fact，adoption is very common today．There are about 60 thousand adoptions each year in the United States alone．Some people prefer to adopt infants，others adopt older children，some couples adopt children from their own countries，and others adopt children from foreign countries．In any case，they all adopt children for the same reason----they care about children and want to give their adopted child a happy life．
     Most adopted children know that they are adopted．Psychologists（心理学家） and child-care experts generally think this is a good idea．However，many adopted children or adoptees have very little information about their biological parents．As a matter of fact，it is often very difficult for adoptees to find out about their birth parents because the birth records of most adoptees are usually sealed．The information is secret so no one can see it．Naturally，adopted children have different feelings about their birth parents．Many adoptees want to search for them，but others do not．The decision to search for birth parents is a difficult one to make．Most adoptees have mixed feelings about finding their biological parents．Even though adoptees do not know about their natural parents，they do know that their adopted parents want them，love them and will care for them．

9．Do you know Harry Houdini，a man of many Secrets，who was one of the greatest American entertainers in the theater this century？He was a man famous for his escapes-from prison cells，from wooden boxes floating in rivers，from locked tanks full of water．He appeared in theaters all over Europe and America．Crowds came to see the great Houdini and his"magic"tricks．
Of course，his secret was not magic，or supernatural powers．It was simply strength．He had the ability to move his toes as well as he moved his fingers．He could move his body into almost any position he wanted．
Houdini started working in the entertainment world when he was 17，in 1891．He and his brother Theo performed card tricks in club in New York．They called themselves the Houdini Brothers．When Harry married in 1894，he and his wife Bess worked together as magician and assistant．But for a long time they were not very successful．Then Harry performed his first prison escape，in Chicago in 1898．Harry persuaded a detective to let him try to escape from the prison，and he invited the local newspapermen to watch．
It was the publicity（宣传） that came from this that started Harry Houdini's success．Harry had fingers trained to escape from handcuffs and toes trained to escape ankle chins．But his biggest secret was how he unlocked the prison doors．Every time he went into the prison cell，Bess gave him a kiss for good luck-and a small skeleton key，which is a key that fits many locks，pass quickly from her mouth to his．
Harry used these prison escapes to build his fame．He arranged to escape from the local prison of every town he visited．In the afternoon，the people of the town would read about it in their local newspapers，and in the evening every seat in the local theater would be full．What was the result？World-wild fame，and a name remembered today．
