9、 money.

24、ame we now call football did not exist. American football started during a game between two colleges. The teams had got together to play what they called “football“, but each team played by different rules. One team played what we now call soccer. The other played what we now call rugby (橄榄球).Both g

25、ames had been invented a thousand years before. In the first kind of football game ever played, all the men from one village tried to kick a ball into another village. The men of the second village tried to kick the ball into the first. Hundreds of people joined in, running everywhere, running crops

26、 and knocking down fences. In time, people agreed on some rules to keep order, but many rules were left open to change.

31、as two sides, the left and the right. The right side controls the senses (seeing, hearing, feeling, tasting and smelling), and is the creative and imaginative side. The left side of the brain controls our logical thinking. It processes the information which comes in, and puts it into order. We call

32、the left side the “educated“ side of the brain and generally, in western societies, people have developed this side of the brain more than the right side.Scientists believe that our brain will work much more efficiently if both the right side and the left side are developed equally. In many schools

33、today, teachers try to educate the children in such a way that both sides of the brain are used.

41、 is it that everyone wants more than anything else? What is it that all of us keep working and striving for each day? It is happiness.Happiness is a strange thing.

49、 automakers say it is way ahead of its time.Gloria Bergquist of the Alliance of Auto Manufacturers says, “The technology (for zero emissions) isnt here yet; it still needs advancement in driving range to make it more appealing to a wider consumer audience.“Automakers blame it on the batteries.
