13、ars old , horses have been my passion . My dream was to ride a horse . When that time finally approached my anxious little life , my heart beat a thousand times a minute . It was warm summer day in Odessa , Ukraine, and we were at a park . My mom was buying several things for home while I wandered

14、around to find something that made my eyes twinkle . I spotted a figure from heaven , a four-legged beautiful animal was standing down the block , breathing heavily . I ran up to the horse , not even knowing how to pet it , just excited to see the most beautiful creature .He was shining white , with

15、 a well- brushed tail . He was playing with his bit and chewed on the reins . I could tell this horse was bored . Where was the owner ? Right away I assumed that I could ride this horse . I turned the other way and went to search for my mom to get some money . I spotted her buying groceries and dra

16、gged her to where the horse was . The owner was back and stated that it was his horse and I couldn’t ride it . A warm stream of tears flooded down my cheeks as my mom tried to convince the man to let me ride the horse. He finally agreed for a costly price . He taught me how to get on the horse and e

17、xplained to me that it was important to keep heels down and arms steady . The gentle beat of the horse’s trot awakened all the senses in me as I bounced up and down on the saddle (鞍). I was the happiest little girl in Ukraine , having the time of my life . I began planning how I was going to buy a h

18、orse after I became a millionaire . Before I knew it , the ride was over . Surprisingly , I actually learned to control the horse and change the pace . That day was probably the happiest time of my life . Most children wouldn’t have as much fun as I did . Several years later , after coming to Ameri

23、nother and to determine where we “fit” in society . As we to about our everyday lives , we mentally attempt to place people in terms of their statuses . For example , we must judge whether the person in the library is a reader or librarian , whether the telephone caller is a friend of a salesman , a

24、nd so on . The statuses we assume often vary with the people we meet , and change throughout life . Most of us can , at very high speed , assume the statuses that various situations require . Much of social interaction consists of identifying (识别) and selecting among suitable statuses and allowing

25、other people to assume their statuses in relation to us . This means that we fit our actions to those of other people based on a constant mental process of appraisal and interpretation . Although some of us find the task more difficult than others , most of us perform it rather effortlessly . A sta

26、tus has been compared to ready-made clothes . Within certain limits ,an American is not free to choose the costume of a Chinese peasant or that of a Hindu prince. We must choose from among the clothing presented by our society . Furthermore , our choice is limited to a size that will fit , as well a

27、s by our pocketbook . Having made a choice within these limits we can have certain alterations (修改) made , but apart from minor adjustments , we tend to be limited what the stores have on their racks .

According to the survey , nearly half the respondents chose the US as a friendly country . The positive opinion of the US is more tha

34、n in last year’s similar survey . “This increase is a result of the American Government’s move to strengthen Sino-US ties last year.” said Professor Jin at Remin University. In 2005, US Government and military (军事) officials paid frequent visits to China . During President Bush’s trip last November

35、 , his bicycle ride in Beijing expressed friendliness with people in China . On the other hand ,people’s concern over competition between the two countries is natural .

36、 about China also are changing . “These changes reflect deepening understanding between the two peoples, which leads to stable Sino-US relationships,” said Jin . 1．The Sino-American relationship can be best described as . A．co-operation and competition B．an economic partnership C．employ

40、ory . But if you have ever been pregnant (怀孕) yourself , one thing is certain : You wonder what it is like to carry a test-tube baby . Are these pregnancies normal? Are the babies normal ? The earliest answers come from Australia , where a group of medical experts at the Queen Victoria Medical Cent

41、er in Melbourne have taken a look at the continent’s first nine successful in vitro pregnancies . The Australians report that the pregnancies themselves seemed to proceed (进行)according to plan , but at birth some unusual trends did show up . Seven of the nine babies turned out to be girls . Six of t

42、he nine were delivered by Caesarean Section (剖腹产手术) 。 And one baby , a twin , was born with a serious heart defect and a few days later developed life-threatening problems . What does it all mean ? Even the doctors don’t know for sure , because the numbers are so small . The proportion of girls to

43、boys is high , but until there are ming special that happens when egg meets sperm in a test tube instead of a fallopian tube . The saany more test-tube babies no one will know whether that’s something that just happened to be like that or somethme thing is true of the single heart defect ; it usuall

44、y shows up in only 15 out of 60000 births in that part of Australia , but the fact that it occurred in one out of nine test-tube babies does not necessarily mean that they are at special risk . One thing the doctors can explain is the high number of Caesareans . Most of the mothers were old , had lo

45、ng histories of fertility problems and in some areas had surgery on the fallopian tubes , all of which made them likely candidates for Caesareans anyway . The Australian researchers report that they are quite encouraged . All the babies are now making normal progress even the twin with the birth de
