China is a great country with the largest population in the world．In order to solve the population problem，our government decides to have one-child policy．When it is carried out for some time，many people see not only its advantages but also its disadvantages．Therefore，one-child policy has been out of date，and two-child policy has been carried out these days．

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 as any other child．Parents usually give first-bores 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-working and serious．They often want to do well at school and work．There are more first-born American presidents…such as George W Bush，George Washington，and Lyndon Baines Johnson---than the second or last-born children．

When a second child arrives，parents usually feel less 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．

Long, long ago people made fires from lightening (闪电). But they had to keep the fire burning, for they couldn’t start it again if there was no lightening. Later, they found out hitting two pieces of stone together could make a spark (火花). The spark could fire dry leaves. In this way they could make the fire again if it went out. Then people also learned to make a fire by rubbing (摩擦). They made a hole on a piece of wood and put a smaller stick into the hole. They turned the stick again and again. After a few minutes they got a fire.

A years went by, people learned other ways to make a fire. Sometimes they used the heat from the sun. They held a piece of glass in the right way and made a piece of paper on fire.

About two centuries ago, people began to make matches. Matches brought people a quick and easy way to make fires. Today matches are still being used, but people have more new ways to make fires.
