machine power is better than human power because we cannot survive without our daily used machines like bikes, coolers, computers, etc.started on 14-apr-2008 by smithe-mail: johnson6-may-2008yes, its very clear that machine power is better than man power. but machine power has its limitations (局限). it cannot survive without electricity and manhandling. if it doesnt have these two then it is completely useless. so man should not completely depend on machines. one more point is that because of the use of machines man has become 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 completely turn from machine power to man power. he should have a balance of both. even i cant think of life without a car, a computer and a cooler.sally9-may-2008humans 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 compared 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.56. who agrees with smith generally?a. tommy. b. tina. c. sally. d. johnson.57. according to johnson, man should _.a. keep a balance between human power and machine power.b. completely depend on machine power.c. turn from

language. in this way they are like other animals, such as bees and birds. but dolphins are very different from almost all land animals. their brain is nearly the same size as our own, and they live a long time- at least twenty or thirty years. like some animals, dolphins use sound to help them find their way around. they also make these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food. we now know they do not use their ears to receive these sounds, but the lower part of the mouth, called the jaw. strangely, dolphins seem to like man, and for thousands of years there have been stories about the dolphin and its friendship with people. there is a story about sailors in the 19th century. in a dangerous part of the sea off the coast of new zealand, they learnt to look for a dolphin called jack. from 1871 to 1903, jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way. then in 1903 a passenger on a boat called the penguin shot and wounded jack. he recovered and for nine years more continued to guide all ships through the area- except for the penguin. today, some people continue to kill dolphins, but many countries of the world now protect them and in these places it is against the law to kill them.69. dolphins are different from many other animals in that they_.a. live in groups b. have their own language c. are warm-blooded d. have large brains70. which of the following does the dolphin use to help it find its way around? a. its nose b. its mouth c. its ears d. its eyes71. why did the sailors off the coast of new zealand look for jack? a. he was lonely and liked to be with people. b. they enjoy playing with him. c. they wanted his help. d. he was seriously wounded.72. by telling the story of jack the writer wanted to show that _. a. dolphins are friendly and clever b. people are cruel to animals c. jack is different from other dolphins d. dolphins should be protected by lawefinding summer jobs for teenagers has not always been easy, but now you no longer have to worry about what your kid can do to earn their own money. recently i found some different sites online that offer information about what kids can do. below is some of that information, along with questions to think about to help you come up with your own ideas.ideas for summer work:parks and recreation programs.babysitting (当临时保姆) during the day of school.working part-time at a day care for the summer.car washing.working at local vegetable stands.the easiest way for you to find ways for your child to make money is to think about others inconveniences (不方便). think of things you need done, or would like to have done, and what you would consider paying for these things to get done. once you have some ideas, you can sit down with your child and talk to them about what they would be interested in doing. then once you have an idea of what they want to do you can help them come up with fair prices.preferably you would want to only have your child working with people you know and trust, or in the least bit you could have your child pick a partner. th
