To invite eminent persons to help make advertiments should be regarded as one of the best advertising strategies and could, of cour, produce a spectacular(powerful) VIP effect, privided that tho celebrities are perfectly willing to accept the invitation and, more importantly, the products to be advertid are genuine and of fair prices. Sometimes, while a commodity is of inferior quality, the advertiment is full of words lavishing prai on it, if a celebrity shows up as an image agent for such
a product, the advertiment could, if any, be temporarily successful before it turns the brand of the product in question notorious and, more disastrously, ruins the reputation of the eminent person thereafter. So, the famous are well advid to think more than twice before they agree to appear on the commercial.

As one travels abroad and examines the ways in which space is handled, startling variations are discovered; differrences which we react to vigorously. Since none of us are taught to look at space as isolated from other associations, feelings cued by the handling of space are often attributed to something el. In growing up people learn literarily thousands of spatial cues, all of which have their own meanings in their own contexts.
当人们到海外旅游时，如果留心观察外国人如何处理空间关系，就会发现许多令人惊讶的不同之处；而这些不同之处总让我们反应强烈。因为从来没有人教我们要把空间与其它联想区别开来，所以我们常认为空间处理引发的感觉是出于其它的原因。从小到大。人们要学会几千种空间暗示，所有这些暗示在不同的情境中都有不同的含义。

Wealth expod American manners to continuing international scrutiny becau it underwrote an expansion of tourism. In the late nineteenth century the American abroad symbolized for some the dangders of sudden wealth and became an instrument to expo comparative social codes and
standards of morality. Boasting, vulgarity, obssive acquisitiveness, and innsitivity were soon associated with this early version of the Ugly American. Reprenting a small portion of the population, the international travelers emed to stand for the whole country in the eyes of many foreigners, and it was the prodigality of their wealth, the apparently limitless wallets and purs, that emed most dangerous. American money threatened to loot the Old World of its historic treasures, and aggressive celebrity hunters and relic gatherers to invade European privacy as well. 财富使美国人的行为一直受到国际上的关注，因为它是旅游业的基础。19世纪末，有人认为，在海外的美国人是那些骤增财富的内在危险的象征，并使他们那并非完美无缺的社会准则和道德标准面临腐蚀的危险。自吹自擂、粗俗鲁莽、贪得无厌、麻木不仁很快成了早期的丑陋美国人的象征。周游列国的旅行者在
全国人口中虽然只是一小部分，但在许多外国人眼里，他们好像代表了这个国家的所有人。他们挥霍无度，看起来有用之不尽的资产，这是最大的危险。美钞大有把旧世界历史上的奇珍异宝掠之一空之势。一群追逐名利和涉猎文物古玩的人无孔不入，极大地扰乱了欧洲人的私生活。

我赞成这样的理想：人应该各方面都很出色，既要有头脑，也要有健美的体格。我希望能得到某种幸福和快乐。美国是能得到这些东西的最好的地方，因为这里的人和我们的思想来自世界各地。至今到美国来寻梦的仍然大有人在。
现在我明白了，决定美国梦能否实现的不是教育、不是机会、也不是艰苦的工作，而是权势和恐惧感。你在企业里爬到的地位越高，你失去的东西就越多。美国梦并没有破灭。今天在美国十分流行的想法是：千万不能失去梦想。
I agree to this ideal: people should be good in all aspects, It is necessary to have not only the mind, but also magnificent physique. I hope to get some kind of happiness and joy. The United States is the best place to get the things, becau the people here and their ideas come from all over the world. So far , here are still many people to ek a dream.
Now I know, It is not education, not opportunities, and not hard work, but power and fear that decide whether the American dream can come to be or not. The higher your position is in enterpri, the more you lo something. The American dream is not the end. The idea is very popular in the United States today: never lo one’s dream.

Clinton and Bush are different greatly from each other. Clinton attends in person to everything, trival
of critical; He can memorize data well just like a computer; He and his advisors never fail to take part in the interminable meeting of politics or economy. On the contrary, Bush dislike a meeting that lasts over 15 minutes, and even loathes being bothered by confusing figures. Clinton has cared very much about public approval prented by polls since his early presidency, where Bush, in a sharp contrast, proclaimed at the outt of his election that he would make all decisions on his own.
Clinton is an avid reader, but his successor is not. Joyful, casual and elegant, the ex-president time and again drinks a little, but the new president has been a teetotal since he abstained from it 14 years ago.
Bush Jr. was born of a privileged W ASP family in Texas, while the former, from an ordinary family, has tempered himlf and developed his talents in hardships. He works with his wisdom and eloquence, which his successor is short of.

令人不安的是，妇女解放似乎是一种让妇女多干活的“权利”。一个获得解放的职业妇女比一个很满足的妈妈更快乐吗？如果男人喜欢工作，而女人乐于在家帮助他们分担压力，这有什么可指责的呢？我不觉得“平等”受到威胁，这只是理性的劳动分工。我相信创造和谐的家庭是妇女的责任，而成功与否并不全部取决于女性，但她们所起的作用要远大于男性。真正的问题不在于男人与女人是不是平等，而在于是什么创造了幸福生活。我们是以什么为标准确定生活是富足的、令人向往的呢？我常常问，
为什么事业上的成功也常常被人们看成生活上同样是成功的呢?作为一个女人，如果我在为人妻为人母方面做的很成功，而且对自己的工作也很满意，那么我认为我的存在就挺不错，并由此而感到知足。或许我们该把注意力从妇女身上移开，而去关注一下男人，男人们不能看着自己的孩子成长是很难过的。我敢说，很多丈夫若是有不太耗时的工作而能回家与孩子们玩耍，他们会更高兴。
Uncomfortably，Women's liberation ems to be a more work "rights"。Is a liberated professional woman happier than a very contented mother? If men like to work, and women are willing to help them share the pressure at home，is there anything to be blamed? I don't think that
"equality" is threatened, it’s only the rational division of labor. I believe that it is women’s responsibility to create a harmonious family , and does not all depend on women whether success or not, but they play a far greater role than men. It is not the real problem whether men and women are equal, but is what create a happy life. By what standard, can we determine that life is rich and desirable? I often ask, why the success of career is always regarded as the same in life ? As a woman, if I am a successful wife and a successful mother, and very satisfied with my work, I will think that my existence is not bad, and will feel contented with it. Perhaps, we should give attention from women to men, men will be very sad if they can't e their children grow up. I dare say, many husbands will be more plead, if they have less time-consuming work and can go home to play with
their children.

Mounting evidence shows that animals also have emotions. Becau feelings are intangible and tough to study scientifically, it is hard for scientists to bear out the possiblity of complex animal feelings that entail mental processing. But some scientists believe there are similarities in the brain anatomy and chemistry of humans and animals. For example, scientists studying the biology of emotions have found that emotions em to ari from parts of the brain located below the cortex, the regions that have been conrved across many species throughout evolution; behavioral neuroscientists have found in the experiments that rats’brains relea copious amounts of dopamine associated with pleasure and exitement. All the show that some creatures have true feelings at least.
