Air travel makes some people very nervous. The crowds, the noise and flying itself can causeunease. But there are classes people can take to help them defeat the fear of flying. And, nowCaty Weaver tells us about similar training for service dogs that suffer the same problem.

Service dogs almost never leave the side of the people they care for. You will see them workingon buses, trains and other public transport systems. But the busy environment found at anairport can trouble even the best trained working dog.

People with disabilities depend on their dogs. They want the animals to safely guide themthrough security areas. They also need to the dogs to remain calmly on duty on the airplane,even when the flying is not smooth. This takes special training. The Air Hollywood K9 FlightSchool is one place where such help can be found.

The school has a piece of equipment that provides the sights, sounds and even the feel of anairplane in flight. It is called a flight simulator. The simulator was built for filming airplanescenes in movies.

Sandy Alexander lives in Newport Beach, California. He has a disability that requires his two-year-old dog, Doc, to be always at his side. Mr. Alexander took the dog to the flight school toget him ready for plane trips. He says Doc did not like the bumpy part of the flight simulation.

"When that started he was pretty agitated and looked up at me and wasnt sure what wasgoing on, and I think we are going to be prepared the next time it happens."

Dog trainer Mary Segall is with Canine Companions for Independence. It provides dogs forpeople with disabilities. Ms. Segall says successful training is based on a simple rule:preparation.

"Dogs need to be exposed gradually and repetitively to stimulation, to the environment, toloud noises, to sounds and other dogs so that when this experience happens to them on adaily basis, theyre able to act in a way that theyre used to acting and that they dont getexcitable."

Stacy Huckebas nine-month-old dog, Striker, is still in training to be a guide dog.

"I dont fly a lot so I dont know a lot, but, so I dont know the routine myself. So with a dog Iwould have been lost."

Dog owners who attended the training at Air Hollywood K9 Flight School say they now feelmuch more at ease about future flights. Their dogs also seem ready for takeoff.

今日阳光明媚，万里无云，到沈阳旅游的我有幸参观了这座工业城市中的“中国第二故宫”。

沈阳的故宫实际上是清朝入关前由清太祖努尔哈赤、清太宗皇太极建造的皇宫，是中国现存完整的两座宫殿建筑群之一。沈阳故宫占地6万平方米，与北京故宫72万平方米的占地面积，简直是天差地远。但比起北京故宫的殿宇巍峨，富丽堂皇，沈阳故宫则更显玲珑有致，风格独特，结构紧凑，比北京故宫千篇一律的雕梁画栋更具特色。

沈阳故宫最独一无二的宫殿就是大政殿。这个宫殿是一个融和了四种族元素的建筑。它的屋顶是八角攒尖顶，屋顶和屋檐组合在一起，看上去就像是皇帝头上戴的帽子一般。表姐开玩笑地说：“如果我去和这个大政殿合张影，就相当于把清朝皇帝的帽子带回家啦！”这一妙言反大家逗得捧腹大笑。

随后，我进入大政殿内部参观。只风宫殿正中央有一个金碧辉煌的高台，高台上设有一个雕刻着龙凤、祥云等图案的精美龙椅，龙椅在阳光的映射下，表面的镀金层闪着金光，异常耀眼，恍惚中我似乎看到了清太祖努尔哈赤坐在龙椅上，目光炯炯，野心勃勃，那锐利的眼神如同刀锋一般，他遥望京城，仿佛又在酝酿着一个新的作战计划……

“喂，我刚才听了导游讲解，很有意思哦！”表妹的一声“呼唤”把我从无限沉思中拉回现实世界。还没等我反应过来，（她）就不由分说地拉着我，带我去听导游讲解。“你们看，”导游指着大殿内环绕着龙椅并支撑着大殿屋顶的几根琉璃柱。“这几根装饰着精细、华美且具有象征性图案的琉璃柱，是典型的满族风格。”随后，她又领着我来到大殿门前，“大家知道这座宫殿的哪个地方是按汉族的建筑风格来建造的呢？”于是，众人冥思苦想，却得不到答案。导游见状，便揭开谜底：“答案就是大殿门前的两根高大、刻有巨龙的红漆木柱。中国古代有‘以龙为天’的说法，所以在两根擎天柱上分别刻上一条巨龙。大家注意门前汉白玉台阶和栏杆上的花纹，这就是藏传佛教的图案了。”“还有一种族元素呢？”我不禁提问。“大家仔细观察，会不会觉得大政殿的结构有点像蒙古包吗？”说罢，我都恍然大悟。“原来大政殿既有满汉之风，又有藏式花纹，还有蒙古式结构，不知是出自哪位能工巧匠之手？没想到古代的人们所掌握的技术已如此高超，并应用（得）如此纯熟，真是难得！”我不禁暗自赞叹。

沈阳故宫，真是沈阳市一颗灿烂的明珠，艺术的瑰宝！

清明节是我国民间重要的传统节日，是重要的“八节”(上元、清明、立夏、端午、中元、中秋、冬至和除夕)之一

清明节一般在公历的四月五日，但其节期很长，有十日前八日后和十日前十日后两种说法，这近二十天内均属清明节。

清明节的起源，据传始于古代帝王将相“墓祭”之礼，后来民间亦相仿效，于此日祭祖扫墓，历代沿袭而成为中华民族一种固定的风俗2017介绍清明节的作文英语版英语写作。本来，寒食节与清明节是两个不同的节日，到了唐朝，将祭拜扫墓的日子定为寒食节。寒食节的正确日子是在冬至后一百零五天，约在清明前后，因两者日子相近，所以便将清明与寒食合并为一日。

清明节的风俗，讲究禁火、扫墓，还有踏青、荡秋千、蹴鞠、打马球、插柳……

I am a third year master major in automation at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, P.R.China.

With tremendous interest in Industrial Engineering, I am writing to apply for acceptance into your Ph.D.graduate program.In 1995, I entered the Nanjing University of Science & Technology (NUST) -- widely considered one of the China’s best engineering schools.

During the following undergraduate study, my academic records kept distinguished among the whole department.

I was granted First Class Prize every semester, and my overall GPA(89.5/100) ranked No.

1 among 113 students.

In 1999, I got the privilege to enter the graduate program waived of the admission test.

I selected the Shanghai Jiao Tong University to continue my study for its best reputation on Combinatorial Optimization and Network Schedu ling where my research interest lies.

At the period of my graduate study, my overall GPA(3.77/4.0) ranked top 5% in the department.

In the second semester, I became teacher assistant that is given to talented and matured students only.

This year, I won the Acer Scholarship as the one and only candidate in my department, which is the ultimate accolade for distinguished students endowed by my university.

Presently, I am preparing my graduation thesis and trying for the honor of Excellent Graduation Thesis.

Research experience and academic activity，When a sophomore, I joined the Association of AI Enthusiast and began to narrow down my interest for my future research.

In 1997, I participated in simulation tool development for the schedu ling system in Prof.

Wang’s lab.

With the tool of OpenGL and Matlab, I designed a simulation program for transportation schedu ling system.

It is now widely used by different research groups in NUST.

In 1998, I assumed and fulfilled a sewage analysis & dispose project for Nanjing sewage treatment plant.

This was my first practice to convert a laboratory idea to a commercial product.

In 1999, I joined the distinguished Professor Yu-Geng Xis research group aiming at Network flow problem solving and Heuristic algorithm research.

Soon I was engaged in the FuDan Gene Database Design.

My duty was to pick up the useful information among different kinds of gene matching format.

Through the comparison and analysis for many heuristic algorithms, I introduced an improved evolutionary algorithm -- Multi-population Genetic Algorithm.

By dividing a whole population into several sub-populations, this improved algorithm can effectively prevent GA from local convergence and promote various evolutionary orientations.

It proved more efficiently than SGA in experiments, too.

In the second semester, I joined the workshop-schedu ling research in Shanghai Heavy Duty Tyre plant.

The schedu ling was designed for the rubber-making process that covered not only discrete but also continuous circumstances.

To make a balance point between optimization quality and time cost, I proposed a Dynamic Layered Schedu ling method based on hybrid Petri Nets.

The practical application showed that the average makespan was shortened by a large scale.

I also publicized two papers in core journals with this idea.

Recently, I am doing research in the Composite Predict of the Electrical Power system assisted with the technology of Data Mining for Bao Steel.

I try to combine the Decision Tree with Receding Optimization to provide a new solution for the Composite Predictive Problem.

This project is now under construction.

Besides, In July 2000, I got the opportunity to give a lecture in English in Asia Control Conference (ASCC) which is one of the top-level conferences among the world in the area of control and automation.

In my senior year, I met Prof.

Xiao-Song Lin, a visiting professor of mathematics from University of California-Riverside, I learned graph theory from him for my network research.

These experiences all rapidly expanded my knowledge of English and the understanding of western culture.

I hope to study in depth .

In retrospect, I find myself standing on a solid basis in both theory and experience, which has prepared me for the Ph.D.program.

My future research interests include: Network Schedu ling Problem, Heuristic Algorithm research (especially in GA and Neural network), Supply chain network research, Hybrid system performance analysis with Petri nets and Data Mining.

Please give my application materials a serious consideration.

Thank you very much.

The large number of our population has become one of the most serious problems of our society. according to a recent survey of the national bureau of statistics, there are more than 1.3 billion people in our country, which account for about 1/5 of all the people in the world. the same survey also predicts that our population will grow quickly in the years to come.

overpopulation has brought about a series of negative effects to our economic development and social security. in the first place, too many people impose a heavy burden on our environment. as a result, we suffer from a shortage of fresh water and natural resources. in the second place, as the supply of labor greatly exceeds the demand of the society, many people become employed. this is a source of social unrest. last but not least, we have to manufacture all kinds of products to meet the needs of the people, which causes environment pollution to our lakes and land.

serious though the problem seems, we have to take some measures to tackle it. on the one hand, the government should carry out more strictly the policy of family planning, thus reducing the total number of population. on the other hand, all the people should realize the harms of overpopulation. with the concerted efforts of all the parties concerned, we’re sure to solve the problem in the future.

Before, how much I dont understand, always cut class, make you angry, still fight with people, to do this, you hold a lot of heart for me, although you hit me, scold me, but I still love you. Because I know it is my own fault, you dozen I scold me, just to put my back into the right direction. Whenever someone asked me "what do you like your mom or dad?" I would not hesitate to tell him "I like all parents, but I like my father." Others asked "why do you like my dad? Your father hit you, punish you, you should not hate him, isnt it?" I can honestly tell him "I the fight with person, father will be scold me, sometimes will scold me, but at night he would quietly coated for me several times, I still see him touch my wounds tears, then I will tell myself, I must not let dad sad so sad."

Now I wont fight, dont skip class, I am much better than before. These are all  dads credit. No longer make my father angry, no longer get bothered by dad. Dads mood than they used to be happy, I also feel very happy.

The qingming (Pure Brightness) Festival is one of the 24 seasonal division points in China, falling on April 4-6 each year. After the festival, the temperature will rise up and rainfall increases. It is the high time for spring plowing and sowing. But the qingming Festival is not only a seasonal point to guide farm work, it is more a festival of commemoration.

The qingming Festival sees a combination of sadness and happiness.

This is the most important day of sacrifice. Both the Han and minority ethnic groups at this time offer sacrifices to their ancestors and sweep the tombs of the diseased. Also, they will not cook on this day and only cold food is served.

The Hanshi (Cold Food) Festival was usually one day before the qingming Festival. As our ancestors often extended the day to the qingming, they were later combined.

On each qingming Festival, all cemeteries are crowded with people who came to sweep tombs and offer sacrifices. Traffic on the way to the cemeteries becomes extremely jammed. The customs have been greatly simplified today. After slightly sweeping the tombs, people offer food, flowers and favorites of the dead, then burn incense and paper money and bow before the memorial tablet.

In contrast to the sadness of the tomb sweepers, people also enjoy hope of Spring on this day. The qingming Festival is a time when the sun shines brightly, the trees and grass become green and nature is again lively. Since ancient times, people have followed the custom of Spring outings. At this time tourists are everywhere.

People love to fly kites during the qingming Festival. Kite flying is actually not limited to the qingming Festival. Its uniqueness lies in that people fly kites not during the day, but also at night. A string of little lanterns tied onto the kite or the thread look like shining stars, and therefore, are called "gods lanterns."

The qingming Festival is also a time to plant trees, for the survival rate of saplings is high and trees grow fast later. In the past, the qingming Festival was called "Arbor Day". But since 1979, "Arbor Day" was settled as March 12 according to the Gregorian calendar.
