Polo(马球) is a sport which has been played for centuries throughout Asia and the Middle East.However,it spread slowly across Asia,where it was played by kings and people of high rank.The West was introduced to the sport when the British took
political control over India,and they quickly spread the sport around the world.Numerous forms of polo have appeared,including on bicycles,camels,and for the brave of heart,elephants.
The origins of the sport appear to lie in Persia,and the game has been played there for at least 2,000 years,as artwork and contemporary writings indicate.The name originates in Pakistan,where it means “ball” in Balt i,a language native to that area.
There are two teams of three to four people in a game of polo,depending on the size of the field and the style of game being played.Each player has a long,flexible mallet(球棍) which is ud to hit a ball.The aim is to drive the ball through the opposing team’s goal.Polo is played in brief periods called chukkas;each chukka lasts ven minutes,and play can be fierce and violent.By tradition,hors are replaced at each chukka,ensuring that they stay fresh and fit.
The hors ud in the sport are called poloponies,which is a misnomer since ponies are small hors,but they are full-sized hors.In all cas,hors are lected for speed,ability,and obedience(顺从).A good hor is capable of stopping in a very small area,working with other hors and riders,and moving quickly with the flow of play;championship hors can be sold at a good price.

A new study has found the amount of antibiotics given to farm animals is expected to increa by twothirds over the next 15 years. Rearchers are linking the growing dependence on the drugs to rising demand for meat, milk and eggs. The rearchers warn the drugs could quicken the development of
antibioticsresistant (耐抗生素的)infections. Such infections are already a major public health concern in the United States.广东旅游
Experts say when people stop living in poverty, the first thing they want to do is eat better,rather than earn more money. For most people, that means their diet should contain more meat. Increasing prosperity in Asia has meant people there are eating nearly four times as much meat, milk and dairy products as they did 50 years ago.
To meet that demand, farms have put many animals into smaller spaces. As the animals are crowded together, often the easiest way to deal with some of the problems of crowding is to give the
m antibiotics. It’s clear that antibiotics help animals stay healthy in a crowded environment and grow faster. But bacteria can develop resistance to the drugs gradually, and the antibiotics-resistant bacteria can spread to people.
Doctors find that antibiotics that once worked against the infections no longer do. The bacteria have learned ways to fight the medicine. Doctors say the heavy u of antibiotics in animals is one of veral reasons for the growth of antibiotic resistance worldwide. In the United States, at least two million people get drug-resistant infections each year. At least 23,000 die from an infection.
Ramanan Laxminarayan heads the Center for Dia Dynamics, Economics and Policy. He says the problem is expected to get wor. He believes the u of
antibiotics in animals will soon increa sharply. He says that will not be good for human health. He and other rearchers wrote a report on the study, which was published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. They ud data from the United Nations that tell how and where livestock(牲畜) are raid today. They then predicted how such production would change by 2030.
Europe has banned the u of antibiotics to increa animal growth. And she adds the United States is hoping to persuade farmers to stop using antibiotics for that purpo.
