Two people sit down to play Go(圍棋).One of the players is an old man.He is now 89 years old.He has spent all of his life playing this game.The other person is a young woman.She has been playing Go for only three years.Before this,the woman was an expert at playing computer games.Now she plays Go the same way she played computer games-by becoming a machine herself.

They will play many games,until they know who the winner is.The woman shows no feelings but thinking about all the possible ways of placing her next stone.The old man,on the other hand,looks at the movements of her hands and of her face.This has always helped him to win.He wins the first three games.She wins the next game,and the man is surprised.He has never lost to a woman.The old man worries about the way the young woman is playing the game.He can't read her face; he does not understand her way of playing.

"The way I think about the game" says the woman,"is that it is steps for getting what I want." Again,the old man is surprised.For him,the game is a way of life itself,and not a model of life.

"There is no more beauty any longer.Everything is science and rules.Everything is about winning.Nothing is about playing" he says.They cannot agree with each other; hut it is not necessary.

"Change is a necessary part of life" thinks the man.

"Playing is as important as winning" thinks the woman.

They start to play their final game.

America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon. They don ’t feel hurt. If the same two people meet again, even years later, they pick up the friendship .This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand .Friendships between us develop more slowly but may become lifelong feelings, extending(延伸)deeply into both families.

Walk to school every day? That will work, but not if you like sleep in. If you like bad smells and crowding(擁擠), the bus might be your best Choice. But why not a bicycle? A bicycle will get you there faster than your feet and will save your money.

This is why you see more bicycles than any other kind of transportation in China, about 500 million of them. That’s close to one for every two people in the whole country. But if you survey your class at school, you may will find a higher rate(比率).

Bicycles became popular because they are fun for people and at the same time help develop a strong body. No vehicle is better than a bicycle for enjoying an autumn weekend outside the city with parents or friends. You can travel on small, quiet paths.

Cycling every day helps people build with city healthier hearts and stronger muscles(肌肉). Scientists say a 30-minute ride every day can help you lose weight.

Today, bicycles also are popular with city planners. They see bicycles as a good way to reduce heavy traffic. Unlike buses, bicycles produce no exhaust(尾氣) and don’t burn energy. Many countries are encouraging more daily use of bicycles.
