Sociologists(社會(huì)學(xué)家), working in western countries, have found that a large number of women wished they had been born men. The number is said to be as high as 60% in Germany.“Women often wish they had the same chances as men have, and think it is still men’s world,” said Dr James Helen, one of the sociologists who did the study.Many men say that they have more duties than women. A man has to make money to support(養(yǎng)活) his family and to make the important decision(決定), so it is right for men to be paid more. Some are even against their wives working at all. When wives go out to work, they say, the home and children can not be taken good care of. If women take full-time jobs, they won’t be able to do what they are best at doing: making a nice home and bringing up the children.Some women disagree. They say they want to get out of their homes and to have freedom to choose between work and home life. Women have the right of equal pay and equal (平等的) chances.Anne Harper has a very good job. She also believes in “Women’s Liberation (解放).” “I don’t wish I were a man,” she says, “and I don’t think many women do. But I do wish people would stop treating us like second-class people (二等公民). At work, for example, we usually do the work that men do but get paid less. There are still a lot of jobs only to men --usually they are the best ones. If you are a man, you have a much better chance of living a wonderful life. But how many women scientists are there……or engineers?”

Today，roller-skating is easy and funny.But many years ago，it wasn’t easy at all．Before l750，people never tried skating on wheels．That changed because of a man named Joseph Merlin．Merlin’s work was making instruments．In his free time he liked to play the violin．Merlin Was a man with many ideas and many dreams．People called him a dreamer．One day Merlin received an invitation to go to an important party．He was very pleased and a little excited．As the day of the party came near，Merlin began to think．He wanted to find a way to make a wonderful entrance at the party．Merlin had an idea．He thought that he would attract a lot of attention．If he could skate into the room．

　　Merlin tried different ways to make himself roll．Finally，he decided to put two wheels under each shoe．These were the first roller skate shoes．Merlin was very proud of them．He dreamed of arriving at the party and skating into the room while playing the violin．He was sure that everyone would be very surprised．

　　On the night of the party，Merlin rolled into the room，playing his violin．Everyone was really surprised to see him．There was just one problem．Merlin had no way to stop his roller-skating．He rolled on,playing the violin．Then，with all eyes on him，Merlin hit into a huge mirror on the wall．The mirror broke into many pieces with a very loud noise．Nobody forgot Merlin’s wonderful entrance after that．

Going to a friend’s house is very exciting．You may spend time with a friend and get to see where he lives．So remember to be polite．

　　When to arrive

　　The first thing to remember is that when a friend invites you over，you need to arrive on time．If your friend tells you to come at“around 3：00”，that means you can turn up a little bit after 3：00．But usually it is a good idea to arrive at the right time．

　　What to bring

　　Often it is also nice to bring something to your friend’s house．This could be a box of chocolates for you two to share，or maybe a movie that you can see together．You can also bring some flowers．A littie gift is a nice way to show your friend that you are excited to be at his house．

　　How to greet(問候)

　　When you visit your friend’s house，you may also meet his parents．You should tell them who you are and they may tell you their names．As a child。I went to visit my friend Paul．I called his parents by their first names John and Mary．But now I know it is more polite to call them Mr．or Mrs．Smith．This will show them more respect(尊重) and，then they may tell you to call them by their first names．Another way to show respect is to call them Madam or Sir．

　　It is a cool thing to visit a friend’s house．Be polite to your friend and your friend’s parents，and you will be invited again!

Recycling isn’t anything new. Waste paper, rings, and many other things have been recycled and used again in many different ways for many years. It is only the word that is new. But now that natural materials are becoming more difficult to find, many countries are experimenting with other ways of keeping materials.

In the USA, a publishing firm has brought out several books on pollution and waste in the United States. The books are made of recycled paper梩hat is paper that has been used as paper before. In this way, several thousand trees are saved. Multiply those books by hundred, or even a thousand, and the whole forests are saved. One clever schoolboy has worked it out that if every schoolbook in the USA was recycled, there would be enough paper for fifty packets of peanuts (花生) for every child in the world for five years. He doesn’t say where the peanuts are to come from.

Several firms are experimenting with making containers (集裝箱) from a hard plastic which, when the containers are finished, can be used as building materials, a kind of brick. If mountains of empty cans all over the world can be changed into building materials that are not too expensive, that too, is a new source (來源) of material.

Few animals can fit in with the hot, dry desert as well as the kangaroo rat. Because it comes out of the hiding place at night, it misses the daytime temperatures. Besides, strong back legs move it across the desert a foot at a time. Also, a larger than normal middle ear helps it hear possible danger from a distance. The most surprising thing is an unusual large nose that helps keep wet. The large nose actually catches any extra wet in the air that the rat breathes out. Because of these characteristics, the kangaroo rat never needs to drink water in its lifetime.
