But machine power has its limitations (局限). It cannot survive without electricity and manhandling. If it doesnt have these two then it is pletely useless. So man should not pletely depend on machines. One more point is that because of the use of machines man has bee lazy. This laziness has brought in many problems like obesity, arthritis (关节炎) and other health problems. But I am not saying that man should pletely turn from machine power to man power. He should have a balance of both. Even I cant think of life without a car, a puter and a cooler.Sally9-May-2008 Humans only created the machines. So, human power is greater than machine power. To do the things quickly, we created the machines. But machines cannot think. That thinking power beats machine power.Tina17-May-2008But without humans there is no value of any machine. If someone wants to use his machine perfectly then one must have expert labor or man power.Tommy19-May-2008Hi to all, my opinion is that human power is more powerful than machine power, because human beings created the machines. Human brain works more pared to machines.Mike20-May-2008I think human power is better than machine power because even if we travel on foot to near places the money will not be wasted and we can get exercise.21.

There are many celebrations around the world.In Brazil, the celebration is supposed to go on from the Saturday before Mardi Gras(四旬斋前的最后一天)to Mardi Gras Day, but in some Brazilian cities the celebration can last seven or eight days. Just like New Orleans, not many important things are decided in Brazil from New Years Day to Mardi Gras Day because everyone is preparing for or celebrating carnival. Most Brazilian parades have a subject, which could be political and historical. The parades had to have a subject related to Brazil until 1996. Some cities in Brazil do not have a street carnival but they might have an indoor ball.Bolivia has carnival parades for children and then more parades for adults. The children dress up in costumes and march in the streets. The adults make traditional dance groups and dance in the streets. But the main part of Bolivias carnival is getting wet. Almost everyone gets wet from water balloons and water buckets. In Oruru, Bolivia, their carnival is held in the last ten days of the carnival season. People there participate in crafts and dancing, but their main carnival event is a ceremonial parade that lasts for twenty hours and parades for four kilometers. Over 20,000 dancers are involved as well as 10,000 musicians. This parade attracts at least 400,000 people.The carnival in Venice, Italy, is often regarded as the most carefully prepared carnival and lasts the ten days before Lent (四旬斋). Many events are held in the canals including shows, concerts, dances, and water processions(队列). The official ending to the celebration is the ball held in St. Marks Square.24.

He went from one pany to another but no one wanted him. With little money left, he got to the station, sad and tired. All he wanted to do was go back to his small town. It was very late at night and the station was full of people. They were waiting to buy tickets of the last train. He bought the last ticket, and he was very happy.At that time, a woman with a crying baby walked to him and asked him to sell her the ticket. He gave her the ticket because he thought they needed it more than he did. After the train left, he sat on the bench and didnt know where to go.

For the early years, say when you are in primary school, you can get by with no technology at all. Even if you have a puter, its a good idea to get children familiar with libraries. At this age, trips to the library are like family outings.As you get closer to middle school, a puter with Internet access bees more of a necessity. Teachers will often give assignments that require a student to use the Internet for research. After a puter, technology choices for student s bee more difficult to make-especially when it es to cell-phones. K ids will beg their parents for a cell-phone, especially in middle school. For many parents, its a safety issue: They want to know that their kids can reach them quickly if necessary. For teachers, cell-phones can be used to record lessons when students are absent. But many teachers dislike cell-phones. Some kids send messages or have talks in the class. Sending messages also raises the problem of cheating on exams. More and more schools are now forbidding the use of cell-phones.Many kids see iPods as necessary things to have. iPods are great for music, but do they do anything good for your childrens education? Maybe they do. Thats the opinion of Doug Johnson, an educator for 30 years. Johnson says that educators should accept all new forms of technology in the classroom, including iPods. “Some do more with their cell- phones than we can do with our laptops, ” he jokes. “I dont think we should be afraid. The truth is that it s easier to change the way we teach than to change the technology habits of an entire generation. ”32. According to author, primary school children should_ .A. go to libraries to read more booksB. ask their parents to buy them cell-phonesC. buy iPods to listen to music D. use the puter and the Internet regularly33.

We can infer from what Doug Johnson said that_. A. cell-phones are not useful to students B. teachers should let students use cell-phonesC. its better for teachers to change their teaching methodsD. schoolchildren should follow the trends(潮流) of fashion第三部分 七选五（10分）Five steps to better handwritingSome kids love handwriting, but others hate when its time to put their pen to paper.
