About 400 high school students from Western Pennsylvania and the neighboring state of Ohio joined a heated discussion recently on “China：What Does the Future Hold？”

“It’s either going to turn out really good or really bad—who knows？” said Braveen Ragunathan，a senior from an Ohio high school.In his mind all Americans are connected to China in some way.

The forum(论坛) was held in Pittsburgh，once a US industrial center，now facing job-cuts because of competition brought about by globalization.The aim of the forum is to help American students learn more about the outside world.

Elliott Blackwell，a junior at the Neighborhood Academy，said the forum let him know more about how China’s economic development will affect America in the future.

Some students，although impressed by China’s economic boom，expressed uneasiness about the nation’s practices and differences from the American way of doing business and politics. “China is a power coming up，so they might challenge us，”Paul Amon，a junior from Oil City High School，said.“I’d hope that China can be our partner but I think that we’d clash(冲突) along the way because we’re too different，”he added.

George Riley，a teacher explained，“The view of China is usually negative and I think that’s fueled by the media.”

However，some negative feelings are not from the media.Merri Ebel is a senior at East Allegheny High School，north of Pittsburgh.Both her parents lost their jobs recently.The company they worked for said it was cheaper to produce goods in China rather than the US.

“China is just this big question mark.China was just a big country with millions of people that no one really knew about because it was so far away and our class was more American history based，” she said.

For better or worse US teenagers are eager to know more about China，the forum shows. 5．From the passage we know that most US teenagers . A．know only a little about China B．know much about China C．know nothing about China D．like China very much 答案 A

How do you deal with hunger of your stomach？Eat your favorite meal and keep quiet after that？ 1 But it never lets you know，because you keep it busy thinking about your friends or favorite stars.So it silently serves your needs and never lets itself grow.When mind loses its freedom to grow，creativity sets a full stop.This might be the reason why we all sometimes think “What happens next？”，“Why can’t I think？”

It was years ago when I played in the final of an “under 12” tennis tournament in Vancouver，BC.In the final，I was up against a boy I had beaten a handful of times before without much resistance，so everything was lined up for another junior tournament victory.I ran into the trophies(奖杯) that were all perfectly lined up next to each other；one was for the winner and the other was for the finalist.

There was just one problem—the finalist trophy was much nicer than the winner trophy；although the winner’s trophy was bigger，the finalist one had this beautiful fake gold surrounding the entire trophy.I wanted it badly.

So I came up with a plan—I would fake an injury midway through the match.That way I wouldn’t let my father (who was my biggest fan to say the least) down too much，and I would have a great excuse if anybody asked how I lost.With the score at 4－4 in the first set，I found a perfect opportunity to fake my injury.I ran for a wide forehand and perfectly rolled over on my ankle and fell to the ground.

I patiently waited for my moment to take home that golden trophy that I had my eyes on all day long.

“DENNIS SIMSEK，PLEASE COME UP TO THE PODIUM AND RECEIVE YOUR TROPHY.”

It was right at that moment that I leaped off the couch and confidently walked up to the podium.To this day I’ll never forget the look on everyone’s face as I turned around to face them—they were looks of complete and utter confusion.The worst part of it all was that my dad was in the crowd as well.He knew exactly what was going on，and he started to walk towards me and with a quiet voice whispered into my ear，“I’ll go get the car started.” That was my signal to get out of there and never return...
