     Most American students have to say goodbye to fancy (高档的) fruits these days, In school restaurants across the country, cheaper fruits like apples and oranges have taken their place.
     "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
things.
     The crisis began last year. Experts (专家) think it was because US banks lend money too easily.
Last year a lot of people and companies, who borrowed money, found themselves unable to pay it back.

banks borrowed money between themselves and even across borders (国界) , the whole world was in
trouble.
     This month the US government agreed on a $700 bullions plan to try to save the financial market.
But no one is sure whether it will help or not. Last week presidents from 20countries promised to work
together to find a way out of the money trouble.

    On February 7, the National Library of China in Beijing began to allow free entry of readers, only asking
for their ID cards. While having free access (进入) to the library's services and facilities, readers can also
enjoy discounts (打折) on document copying, archive delivery and CD burning (刻录). The government
has given 178 million yuan to help the program.
    Various surveys (调查) show that Chinese are spending less time on reading, but this doesn't necessarily
mean a decline (下降) in people's passion in this regard. For example, bookstores on weekends are always
filled with readers. The key reason is that there are too few good public libraries. Either the books are too
old or in poor condition or the fee charges are too high.
    Against this backdrop, to offer free access to the National Library will help to encourage the public's
passion for reading and thus improve the overall cultural quality of nation.

Now more and more people communicate(沟通) by sending messages with mobile phones, sending e-mails or even chatting on line. How about our pen, pencil or paper? Which one do you think is easier and more convenient, handwriting or texting (发短信)?
Today, texting is the most common way of communication, even among young students. People don’t write letters anymore. They usually send e-mails to their friends. From texting to e-mails, it seems like keyboard (键盘) are replacing the good old pencil and paper. As a result, many students are poor in handwriting. Some even don’t know how to write normal words we often use.
In order to improve students handwriting skills, the British government(政府) recently decided to open handwriting lessons in middle schools. The British government hopes the students will be able to learn how to write business and personal letters properly at any length(长度). The students will also be taught different kinds of writings. They will also learn to use correct spelling, punctuations (标点)and grammar. The handwriting lessons will begin in 2014. Why don’t you practice handwriting and write letters to your family and friends to surprise them?
