After a while, she saw a man go close to her and put his hand in her pocket with a smile, then put out the hand quickly and left. She became very angry and shouted, “Stop it, or I will call the police!” To her surprise, she found her aunt and all the other people there laughing with the word “Congratulations”!

Printing Technique During the Northern Song Dynasty, Bi Sheng invented moveable, reusable clay type. Single types were made and picked out for printing certain books. These types could be used again and again for different books. About 200 years later, this technique spread to other countries. Compass Si Nan was the foreigner of the compass. In the 11th century, tiny needles made of magnetized(磁化的) steel were invented. The compass was created. The compass improved a ship’s ability to sail over long distances.

Yet, rather than relaxing by the beach, the couple is preparing to become parents. They’ve already done it more than 70 times. The kind couple has fostered children for fifteen years, since their own children grew up and left them. And now, they have their 72nd kid. “We have children. We have grandchildren,” Ann Rose told the local news channel WFMZ. “They were getting older, didn’t have any babies, so we thought we’d do this.” The Roses are providing a much-needed service. In Pennsylvania alone, there are over 27,000 children in need of foster care. Most are at least a few years old, and many are teenagers. Many have physical or mental(精神的) disabilities. But no matter what their situation or history is, they all need a loving family to help them on their journeys to adults. Although some of the children surely haven’t been easy to care for, the most difficult part of the process, says Ann Rose, is giving the child up. And while most other couples at their age are enjoying their golden years on the golf course, the Roses say there’s nothing else except looking after the kids. “They really needed to have a safe home and they need to have a home with love,” says Ann Rose.

Yet, for many, the holiday season often means stress, disappointment and loneliness. These feelings, often known as the “holiday blues”, may be even more common this year, because of the unsteady economy(不稳定的经济状况). Experts say even the tasks of shopping, decorating, late-night parties, cooking, planning and family reunions(团圆) can be the cause of holiday blues. “Certainly the holidays don’t mean people are going to be happy,” says Dr. Doug Jacobs of Harvard University. “And this will be a particularly hard holiday for some who are dealing with lost jobs, debt, or even a lost loved one.” “Families are much more different now. The disappointment that often results from family gatherings is actually a realization that the fantasy(幻想) is not met,” says John Stutesman, a clinical psychologist at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago. Then, how to deal with the holiday blues? “The most necessary step,” says Stutesman, “is to know their own feelings and the reason for their depression.” Stutsman suggests that people do things to feel comfortable. “If they’re feeling a little blue, they should try to do something enjoyable. Maybe this is exercise, cooking, reading a book, or massage(按摩). ( )21. According to the first paragraph, now holidays are not _____ anymore for many people.

You’ll mix with people of different ages and backgrounds in junior colleges. This makes the process of making new friends more difficult. But don’t worry. Here are some useful tips. Remain open to new cultures, ideas and values. Most people just try to find friends that are the same as their friends in high school, but college is a huge mix of cultures and people. Don’t be afraid to approach the person who is a little bit different from yourself. Look good, friendly and outgoing. Unlike high school, you don’t have to worry about owning the latest designer purse, but make sure you wear clothes that are clean and not terribly out of style. Good expression is important since no one wants to make friends with a person who looks unfriendly. You can always smile. A smile shows you are friendly and willing to meet new people. It will make you seem approachable and you’ll have more chance of someone coming up to you to start a conversation. Introduce yourself to those in your dorm and class. When you attend parties, sports events and special gatherings where people entertain, you should introduce yourself to others actively.
