open car doors looking for food and drink.He also normally takes a handbag." Mr Duffy had a warning
for anyone who meets with Fred:"Don"t try to get the bag back." This is good advice for the thousands
of soccer supporters.
The Cape Town government is taking the baboon problem very seriously.They want to make sure
the World Cup is a wonderful event for everyone.They are worried about more obvious problems like
pickpockets (小偷) or rude people.The last thing they need is for soccer fans to be attacked or bitten
by baboons.They have already spent over US $650,000 trying to protect the city from the baboons.
Many soccer fans may not know how dangerous the baboons can be.They have a powerful bite that
would mean hospital treatment.

international survey found men spent more time watching television. meeting friends. playing sport
or enjoying hobbies than women.
The Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development. made up of the world"s richest
nations. said Britain came close behind France and America in the list of countries where women
work harder than men.The report called for greater equality for women.It said governments and firms
needed to do more to deal with the sex equality gap (差距).
Former OECD reports have suggested the difference may be more to do with how each sex
chooses to spend its time which was not taken into account (考虑到) in the new report.The OECD
said shopping. having a bath. dressing. taking a nap or taking a long lunch all count as work rather
than leisure.If these are taken into account. British men have only 10 minutes more____________a
day than women.
Men generally report spending more time on activities counted as leisure than women.Sex
differences in spare time are wide across OECD countries.The 32minute leisure advantage for men
in Britain compares with 38 minutes in the US,33 minutes in France,50 minutes in Belgium and 22
minutes in Ge
rmany.Italian men spend nearly 80 minutes a day more than women on leisure time.Across the OECD countries,62 percent of women have jobs. and women earn a fifth less than men.

Many people often lose their friends and they don"t know how to keep a long friendship.So
how can you keep a long friendship? The following passage explains very well about this matter.
The first thing you need to do is to become a good listener.In this way,you show your friends
that you are interested in their lives.You want to know more about them and you want to help
them solve their problems.They will cherish the friendship more if they know you care about them.
The next thing is that you should respect other people"s privacy (隐私)．People usually don"t
like others to know about their private life,so you should show respect toward their privacy.
Sometimes,they need some suggestions from others,but this does not mean that others can know
about their entire life.So respect for privacy is a must for keeping a long friendship.
The third important thing is that you need to be able to forgive.You must remember that nobody
is perfect in this world.It is important to forgive others and not to blame them for the mistakes they
have already made.You are not perfect either.Thus you need to apologize to others for the mistakes
you may have made.
Pay attention to the three things above,and you will be able to have long friendships.
B．what we can do for our friends

I guess having a son who could become a race car driver was the next best thing.Don"t get me
wrong-Dad didn"t push me into racing.In fact, when I was about 10 years old, my dad was afraid that
driving a car wasn"t my dream.So he took the racing away from me.I wasn"t very happy with that decision.It wasn"t long before Dad realized that racing was what I loved.
At four, Dad bought me my first Quarter Midget (袖珍赛车) and that"s really where it started for us.
Back then, Dad coached me.He would stick out (伸出) his footin the path of the race car, and then tell
me to exactly hit his foot.By repeating this again and again, Dad believed that I would be faster and
sharper on the race track.
Dad worked really long hours at his car repair business to make money so that I could race each
weekend.I can remember that every night before he turned off the lights in the garage, Dad would tell
me:"Don"t forget to kiss your race car good night." He was trying to teach me that if I show respect, it"s
returned.He wanted me to show thankfulness and respect for my race car and for all the hard work that
we and many others had put into the dream.
My dad, my mom and my sister gave up a lot of things to help me race.For us, there was no better
moment than winning the 50th running of the Daytona 500 in 2008.That evening in February 2008, I
knew I had gotten a good push.I could hear the excitement.My father couldn"t speak a word, and when
he got to Victory Lane (车道), he nearly knocked me over and gave me such a big hug.
B. Because he worried that his son didn"t like racing.
