China’s Olympic lesson
Although the Athens Games are over, 71 . While busy preparing for the new semester in the first week back at school, many youngsters have started to wonder what Beijing can learn from Athens.
“I was amazed by the fantastic opening ceremony from the moment it began,” said She Fei, a Senior 2 boy from Beijing Huiwen High School. He represented China in Athens and got the chance to see the opening ceremony with his own eyes.
“Greece has done such a good job in showing its colorful culture using high-tech methods. 72 ” he said. “It seems that Beijing needs to combine the use of advanced technology with creative design to present its culture to the rest of the world. 73 ” he added.
Echoing her view on the challenge of designing an unique opening ceremony, Zhang Yufei, Senior 3 from No. 2 High School attached to Beijing Normal University, thinks that director Zhang Yimo’s presentation of Chinese culture will be out of date by 2008.
“Peking Opera costumes and the big red lantern did not seem to surprise the audience in the closing ceremony. 74 ” She said.
Other students worry people’s bad habits, 75 , might be the weak point of Beijing 2008.
“In Athens, all the residents were very careful with their behavior and manners. I think they have set a good example of Olympic hospitality. Beijingers can learn from them and do better.” She Fei said.

People often say, “The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world.” and “Behind every successful man there is a woman.” Both these sayings mean the same thing. Men rule the world, but their wives rule them.
Most American women like making their husbands and sons successful, but some of them want more for themselves. They want good jobs, and when they work they want to be paid. They also want to be as successful as men.
The American women’s liberation movement was started by women who didn’t want to stand behind successful men. They wanted to stand beside men and have the same chances for success. They didn’t want to be told that certain jobs or offices were closed to them. They refused to work side by side with men who did the same work for a higher pay.
A liberated woman must be proud of being a woman and have confidence in herself. If somebody says to her, “You have come a long way, baby.” She will smile and answer, “Not nearly as far as I’m going to go, baby.” This movement is quite new, and many American women don’t agree with it. But it has already made some important changes in women’s lives and in men’s lives, too.
