I saw German kids standing outside the U. S. army kitchen. They werent begging, just standing
14、there very politely. When we were done, the kids would eat the food out of the garbage.

In many Chinese cities especially in the big cities, the speed of rising in price of housing is
29、rapid and surprising. The price of housing has deviated the income level of many common people seriously. It is awkward that a common person can not afford a common flat in our country.What reasons have led to the appearance mentioned above on earth? In my opinion, there are 3 main and essential rea
30、sons for it.First of all, the price of the land, which has changed higher and higher in recent years, is the most important factor. We know, the real estate includes 2 parts: the land and the housing. The price of the real estate includes the land and the housing price. Now more and more governments
31、 depend on selling the land to keep their income. The main way of land sale is auction(拍卖), so that it can pay more money to the government. The expensive land increases the cost of the housing, and certainly the cost will shift to the consumers at last.Secondly, there is much more foam composition(
32、泡沫) accompanied with the economy of the real estate. At present, more and more people need purchase a new flat, which shows there is a good market future on the real estate. Economist calls it is “Selling party market”. Therefore, many businessmen of the estate business unite to form an alliance whi
33、ch can control the market as a puppet. Consequently, housing rises in price of the real estate often happened instead of normally, regularly.Thirdly, the government is short of the function that it should have. It was a pity that only few people had enjoyed the preferential housing in the past 10 ye
34、ars. More people had to choose the expensive commercial housing. The government neglected its duty. The government should be partly in charge of the price of housing.In a word, the reasons that influence the price of housing are complex. But a simple fact is obvious chat Chinese government must atta
35、ch responsibility to the higher and higher price of housing.29.

38、irplane, named Solar Impulse, began a journey across the United States. The planes creators, Andre Borshberg and Bertrand Piccard of Switzerland, are taking turns piloting the aircraft as it crosses the nation.Solar Impulse departed from Moffett Federal Airfield, in North California, just after dawn
39、 on May 3. Traveling at around 40 miles per hour, the plane will make its voyage in five separate trips. Each flight-leg(路程) will take 19 to 25 hours with a 10-day stop in each city. The first leg of the journey, from California to Phoenix, Arizona, was completed in 20 hours. From Phoenix, Solar Imp

Solar Impulses journey marks the first time an airplane powered by solar energy will fly across the country during both the day and the night.The solar-powered plane
41、is a single-seat aircraft. “Our plane is not designed to carry a passenger, but to carry a message,” Piccard has said many times. That message is to use new technologies for energy efficiency. Solar Impulse is intended to make its cross-country voyage without using a single drop of fuel. By day, 12,
42、000 solar cells are charged by the sun to power lithium(锂) batteries. That enables the plane to fly at night-but it cannot travel through clouds.Solar Impulse weighs just 3,500 lbs, about as much as a car. Most of the weight is from the solar panels(太阳能电池板) that cover its wings, which stretch 208 fe
43、et. The aircraft has reached and absolute altitude of 30, 300 feet and has completed a trip that lasted more than 26 hours.
