18、ity external and internal routes. It is estimated that Beijing will receive a maximum of 1.2 million people per day at Olympic venues during the 15-day competition period. The transportation lines will mainly depend on a special transportation circle for the Olympics and several other main streets i
19、n Beijing. The circle consists of parts of the fourth and fifth ring roads and their connecting roads. Beijing will provide a special bus service and free public transport services to athletes, coaches and judges. Olympic officials and other honored guests will receive free car services. As part of
20、the transport layout, the public transport system, especially the urban railway, is the priority project under construction. The length of the urban railway will reach over 100 kilometers later this month with the opening to traffic of the western section of the No. 13 Line. In an effort to speed up
21、 the development of public transport, new subway lines totaling 126 kilometers will be constructed from the current 63 kilometers. Among the planned urban railway lines, a high-speed 23 kilometer line will be constructed in the future to connect urban Beijing with the Capital International Airport,

25、 line C the current 63-kilometer line D the No. 13 line B Everyone would like to be a millionaire but can you imagine having over $ 30 million and only being 20 years old? Britney Spears from Kentwood, a small town in Louisiana, is an international pop superstar with not only $ 30 million but also a
26、 $ 2 million house in LA. At her young age, she can look after her family financially all her life. This year is a big year for Britney, she is currently on a 31 date tour of the US and every concert is a sell out. That means she plays in front of a crowd of around 18,000 every time. Its a tiring sc
27、hedule but brings great rewards. When touring, she goes to bed at around 1 a.m. and then has a lie-in until 1 p.m. or 2 p.m. the next day. Her philosophy (人生哲学 ) is to take care of the body and be relaxed but always make sure you work hard and have fun. Spears is not satisfied with only touring and
28、selling nearly 40 million records, so she decided to branch out into the movie business and try a bit of acting. She made an appearance in “Austin Powers 3” in 2002 and she filmed a teenage comedy that was released in 2003. In this movie, she had a starring role. The movie was her own concept and sh
29、e picked the writer. In spite of the fact that she has not enjoyed the same popularity as a pop singer so far, she insists on trying more roles. For Britney, acting is another way to express herself and she is enthusiastic about it all. If her movies are successful, her bank account is sure to grow
30、by another few million dollars but she has been quoted as saying she does it for the love, not for money. 40 Tickets for Britneys concert are _.

33、t the door. “Daddy, may I ask you a question?“ “Yeah, sure, what is it?“ replied the man. “Daddy, how much do you make an hour?“ “Thats none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?“ the man said angrily. “I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?“ pleaded the little b
34、oy. “If you must know, I make $ 20 an hour. “ “Oh,“ the little boy replied, with his head down. Looking up, he said, “Daddy, may I please borrow $10?“ The father was curious, “If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march
35、yourself straight to your room and go to bed. “ The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boys questions. How dare he ask such questions only to get some money? After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down, and
36、started to think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10 and he really didnt ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the little boys room and opened the door. “Are you asleep, son? He asked. “No, daddy, Im awake,“ replied the boy. “Ive been thinking, maybe I wa
37、s too hard on you earlier,“ said the man,“Its been a long day and I took out my aggravation(恼怒 ) on you. Heres the $10 you asked for.“ The little boy sat straight up, smiling. “Oh, thank you, daddy!“ He yelled. Then, reaching under his pillow, he pulled out some crumpled-up bills. The man, seeing th
38、at the boy already had money, started to get angry again. The little boy slowly counted out his money, then looked up at his father. “Why do you want more money if you already have some?“ the father shouted. “Because I didnt have enough, but now I do,“ the little boy replied. “Daddy, I have $ 20 now

43、iness,” says Stephanie Denton, an expert organizer in Cincinnati, Ohio. To get a successful control of organizing papers, bills, and other materials, Denton suggests the following tips: Create a place in which you can always do your paperwork. This is perhaps the most important point of a successful
44、 system. If you cant devote an entire desk to the task, at least buy a file cart to store active paperwork and a two drawer file cabinet（橱柜） for family records. Store the rolling file cart wherever it is most convenient and comfortable to do your work, whether that is the kitchen, office, or family
45、room. When in doubt, throw it out. The first step to operate a workable filing system is to remove paper you dont use, dont need, or that you could easily access again elsewhere. Throw out old lists, and all of the mailings or offerings youll never have a chance to use or even read. Set aside two da
46、ys a month to pay bills. If a monthly due date doesnt fit into your cycle, call up the bank or company that you owe money to and suggest a more convenient date. Keep two folders at front of your system for present bills (one to each bill-paying day) and file all incoming bills. Keep a list in the fr
47、ont of each folder of what needs to be paid in case the bill never arrives or gets misplaced. Think of your filing system not as a rigid tool, but as a living, breathing system that can vary to fit your changing needs. A good filing system is both mentally and physically adaptable. Everyones needs are different, says Denton, but when
