Another “junk” item is a camera that got away from American spacecraft in 1968. Other rubbish includes broken satellites, used rocket bodies and paint chips(碎片) The oldest piece o
28、f junk still being tracked by the U. S. space command is the Vanguard I satellite, launched in 1958. The reason why its junk is that it no longer works and that its radio transmitter(发射器) went dead in 1964. Most junk burns up when it finally plunges(冲) through the atmosphere(大气层). One notable(值得注意的)

32、o know the art of apologizing. Look back with honesty and think how often youve judged roughly, said unkind things, and pushed yourself ahead at the expense of a friend. Then count the occasions when you indicated clearly and truly that you were sorry. A bit frightening, isnt it? Frightening because
33、 some deep wisdom in us knows that when even a small wrong has been committed, some mysterious moral(道德的) feeling is disturbed; and it stays out of balance until fault is acknowledged and regret expressed.I remember a doctor friend, the late Clarence Lieb, telling me about a man who came to him with
34、 a variety of signs: headaches, insomnia（失眠）and stomach trouble. No physical cause could be found. Finally Dr Lieb said to the man, “Unless you tell me whats worrying you, I cant help you.”After some hesitation, the man admitted that, as executor（执行者）of his fathers will, he had been cheating his bro
35、ther, who lived abroad, of his inheritance（继承权）. Then and there the wise old doctor made the man write to his brother asking forgiveness and enclosing a check as the first step in restoring their good relation. He then went with him to the mailbox in the corridor. As the letter disappeared, the man

41、ucky. October is the least lucky month, with only 43 per cent claiming（声称）good fortune.The study adds to evidence that luck is not all down to chance, but is also affected by a persons attitude. Another research has shown that whether people think themselves lucky depends more on having a “glass hal
42、f-full” (instead of half-empty)approach to life, than on success.Professor Richard Wiseman, who led the study, said: “Something is influencing how people feel about their luck. People create their own luck through their attitude towards life.”“Luck is a psychological phenomenon（心理学现象）and not a matte
43、r of blind chance.:”“One theory is that the temperature at the time of birth might influence the development of the brain,” he said. “People born in winter are more likely to suffer from depression（抑郁症）.”He said another possible reason is that mothers may be in a bad mood during winter, which influe

She may be a homemaker, a doctor, or a factory worker. It is very difficult to generalise about American wome
55、n. However, one thing that many American women have in common is their attitude about themselves and their role in American life. Historically, American women have always been very independent. The first settlers to come to New England were ten young couples that had left behind their extended famil

58、nment. Even later, in the East, as new settlers arrived, women often found jobs more easily than men. Women became the supporters of the family.
