1not uncommon to hear Chinese praising the play of their women on the volleyball court and 2the play of the men. The topic is often laughed off as a joke, but 3 a reason for the perceived (感觉到) 4of women’s athletics in China.
At the 2000 Sydeny Games, China’s women won 5gold medals than the men. In Athens in 2004, the women won 19 gold medals, while the men won 12. 6, American women accounted for 12 of the country’s 35 gold medals in 2004.
This summer, again the women are widely7to help with China’s medal tally(记录).wrestling coach Zhang Zhetian is counting 8the women’s team for a wrestling medal. “Guys—you’ve got to push them more.” He told the Wall Street Journal.
Tennis coach Sun Jinfang shares this view: “Women know 9eat bitterness,” she said. Sun has helped to put four double players into the Women’s Tennis Association top 30. no male Chinese tennis players are ranked.
Some experts believe they’ve 10 a reason for the disparity(不同). China has long respected strong women, 11the folk hero Hua Mulan and the much-beloved former Vice-premier Wu Yi. This ideology(意识形态), they think, creates a space 12women who are loyal, filial(孝顺) or who give service to the nation 13.
“Besides China, no other nation gives equal financial support and media attention to14 sports. That’s why China 15challenge the US in medals---it treats men and women16,” Susan Brownell, a professor at17University of Missouri in St. Louis who18 Chinese sports, told the Wall Street Journal.
Now, however, more money is being 19on men’s professional sports, which usually attract more views. This could change the gender gap as sports grow 20commercialized (商业化的) in China, according to the Wall Street Journal.

The students at Sandy’s high school were badly shaken by the news that a classmate had 1himself. On the suicide note was written: “It’s hard to 2when nobody cares if you die.”
Glen, a teacher, realized this was a3 moment about the importance of making people feel
4. He asked his class to imagine they were about to 5and to write a note “telling someone how and why you6 him or her.”
Sandy, who had a7 relationship with her mother, decided to write her mother. Her letter 8“We’ve had some9 times and I haven’t always been a very good10,but I know I’m lucky to have you in my life. You’re the11 person I’ve ever known, And even when I disagree with you, I never12 you love me and want what’s best for me. Thanks for not 13up on me”.
When her mom read the note, she cried and hugged Sandy 14but said little.
The next morning, Sandy found a15on her mirror: “Dearest Sandy, I want you to know being your mother is ,by far, the most important thing in my life.16 I got your note, I thought I had lost your love and17 . I felt like such a failure. I intended to18it all last night. Your note saved my 19.”

Sometimes people cheat in daily life. When people cheat, it’s not fair to other people, like the kids who studied for the test or who were the true winners of a game.
Many people like the action of cheating. It makes difficult things seem easy, like getting all the right answers on the test. But it doesn’t solve the problem of not knowing the material and it won’t help on the next test --- unless the person cheats again.
Some people lose respect for cheaters and think less of them. The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not really earning that good grade. And, if they get caught cheating, they will be in trouble at school, and maybe at home, too.
Some kids cheat because they’re busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without spending the time studying. Other kids might feel like they can’t pass the test without cheating. Even when there seems to be a “good reason” for cheating, cheating isn’t a good idea.
If you were sick or upset about something the night before and couldn’t study, it would be better to talk with the teacher about this. And if you don’t have enough time to study for a test because of swim practice, you need to talk with your parents about how to balance swimming and school.
A kid who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test needs to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so they can find some solutions(解决办法) together. Talking about these problems and working them out will feel better than cheating.

A friend of mine was sitting in the living room one day when his cat dragged in a little “gift” in its mouth—a dead animal of some sort. Taking a closer look, he was surprised to1it as the bunny(小兔子) that2Mary, the young daughter of the family next door. My friend felt3, believing his cat had killed Mary’s bunny.
My quick-thinking friend came up with a plan.4from the cat’s mouth the dead animal, which by now was a5mess, he put it in the kitchen sink. With a little warm water and some shampoo, he tried to6the dead bunny as best he could. Then he took a hair dryer and blowdried the bunny7it looked pretty good.
Finally, under the cover of darkness, he crept into the next-door garden and placed it8in the cage. He managed to make the bunny look very9there in his little box.
The next morning, my friend looked out of the window and noticed a crowd of people10around the rabbit hutch(笼). Everyone seemed to be talking and pointing. My friend11to go over and act like any normal12neighbor and find out what was going on.
When he got there, Mary’s mother said to my friend, “You won’t believe this! It’s a(n)13thing! Mary’s bunny14a few days ago, and we buried that little bunny right over there…”
Have you ever tried to cover up one wrongdoing with another? Covering up only makes matters15.
When we get caught doing something16, for example, we may17to cover it up with a lie. But just like Mary’s bunny, the result is18what we expected. We19looking foolish. We would have been better off admitting we were wrong and accepting the20. What do you think of it?

The first day of college I met a little old lady. I was 1. “Why are you here at such a young age?” I asked.
“To meet a rich husband, 2, have children, and then retire and travel!” she replied 3.
I laughed, but we became close friends. For the whole 4 we would leave class together and 5 nonstop. I was always listening as she 6 her wisdom and experience.
At the end of the term Rose was invited to make a 7. I’11 never forget her words. “We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old 8 because we stop playing. The only 9 of staying young is being happy and achieving success. You have to find humor and 10. You’ve got to have a(n) 11. When you lose dreams, you die. We have so many people walking around who are 12 and don’t even know it! Growing older doesn’t 13 growing up. Anybody can grow older doing 14. That doesn’t take any talent or ability. My idea is that one grows up by always finding 15 in life. Have no regrets. The elderly don’t have regrets for what we did, 16 for things we didn’t do. The only people who fear death are those with 17.”
The college year ended. Rose got her 18 but passed away one week after graduation. Many students attended the funeral (葬礼) of the 19 woman who taught by 20: never too late to be all you can possibly be.

Just Help the Next Person
The only highway to go to work that we had to drive was closed down due to an accident on the bridge. A truck had hit the bridge and made it1for any traffic to go over it. So in order to get to2I had to go a number of miles out of my way.
Not being that3with this road and not knowing4all the pot holes in the road were, I topped a hill and right in my path was a big pot hole. I felt and heard the familiar sound of a flat tire. I5as far to the right as possible and stopped. I tried several times to change the tire, but6.
There I sat out in the country and no way to7with anybody. Just then, I looked in my rear view mirror and a8was pulling out of a pasture behind me. I was9and scared at the same time.
I was struggling to get the10out when this man in the pickup pulled in behind me. He got out to introduce himself and11to help me. When he got the spare out we discovered that the spare is also12. He told me he would take the tire and have it13and call my husband.
We got the tire fixed14he took me back to my car. My husband was there15us when we got back. The kind stranger stayed there and helped my husband16the tire. After they finished we17thanked him and offered to pay him for his18.
I will never forget his words, " your thanks is19enough pay and I just hope if this ever happens to my wife or daughter someone will be so20as to help them."
