What is your zodiac(生肖) animal? According to the Chinese lunar calendar(農(nóng)歷), 12 animals mark 12 different years. It is the basis of the Chinese zodiac. Nowadays, Chinese zodiac animals have worldwide fame and are increasingly popular among western people.
The zodiac is an important part of Chinese culture. People believe that the characteristics of a zodiac animal influence the personality of every person born in that year. For example, people born in the Year of the Tiger are considered powerful and brave.
Zodiac animals also have some social functions. When people think it is not proper to ask: “How old are you”, they may change their question to “What is your zodiac animal?” With this question, you can figure out roughly which year someone was born and the person’s age.
Zodiac animals are not special to China. Many countries share a similar zodiac culture with China. For example, in the Japanese Zodiac, a wild boar(野豬)takes the place of a pig and the Vietnamese(越南的)zodiac has a cat instead of a rabbit.
But have you ever wondered how these 12 animals were chosen to represent each year? According to legend, the Jade Emperor(玉皇大帝)invited all the animals to join him for Chinese New Year. Only 12 animals went to see him. As a reward he named a year after each one in the order they arrived. The ox would have been the first to arrive, but the rat sat on his back and jumped off just before they arrived to come in first place.

Sales of laptop computers passed desktops in the U.S. for the first time ever this fall, according to market-research firm IDC. That's bad news for backs, necks and shoulders.
Laptops are bad for our body. When you work at a computer, the keyboard should be at elbow height and the monitor should be roughly at eye level, so you can sit well in a chair. But most users simply set their laptops on a desk or table. The keyboard is too high, which makes your arms reach up, your shoulders feel tired and your wrists bend down. The monitor is too low, which pulls your head and neck forward and down and your back may feel hurt.
That's OK if you use your laptop for a short time. But if you use one for hours without stopping – as do millions of college students, business travelers, telecommuters, video-gamers and growing numbers of office workers – your body may feel hurt. Ergonomics experts have warned about laptop problems for years. But people still like laptops better than the desktops. And they use laptops anywhere – in bed, on the floor – in all kinds of positions.
“How can a mouse or a keyboard hurt you?” says Thomas Caffrey, the founder of Myofactors LLC, “Wrong positions can be bad for your body. As time goes by, a wrong position can lead to pain in the neck, shoulders, back and arms, as well as headaches.”
【小題1】When you work at a computer, the keyboard should be ________.
A.a(chǎn)t elbow height | B.a(chǎn)t eye height |
C.on a desk | D.on a table |
A.for a short time | B.to play video games |
C.for hours without stopping | D.to buy things on the Internet |
A.a(chǎn)re not so popular as the desktops |
B.a(chǎn)re more popular than the desktops |
C.a(chǎn)re not bad for our body |
D.have no mouse now |
A.people’s sight lower | B.people have cancer |
C.people’s arm longer | D.people feel pain in the body |
A.When you use a laptop, you should put your monitor at eye height. |
B.Laptop computers sold more than desktops this autumn. |
C.To keep healthy, you should use laptop computers. |
D.Business travelers often use the laptop computers for a long time. |
