Six days before the 63rd birthday of New China, our country received a great gift. The country's first aircraft carrier(航母) , Liaoning, has made China become the l0th country in the world to have an aircraft camer.

An aircraft carrier is a kind of ship that planes can fly from and land on—like an airport on the sea. It stands for a country's military strength(軍事力量). It plays an important role in modern wars.

In August last year, the air craft carrier began its trial run at Dalian Port in Liaoning. The carrier was at first called the Varyag. It was built in the former Soviet Union. However, the Soviets failed to finish the ship. China bought the Varyag in 1998. Now after 10 trial runs, the aircraft carrier, renamed Liaoning, is in active service.

Liaoning is about 300 meters long and 70 meters wide. It can take 30 planes and hold 2,000 soldiers.

According to Xinhua News, Liaoning will be used for scientific research and military training.

The aircraft carrier will help protect our country and promote(促進) world peace. The BBC said that Liaoning coming into service " marks China as a rising power".

A professor began his class by holding up a glass with some water in it. He held it up for all to see and asked the students, " How much do you think this glass weighs?"

"50 grams ! " "100 grams ! " "125 grams ! " the students answered.

"I really don't know unless I weigh it , " said the professor, " but , my question is : What would happen if I held it up like this for a few minutes?"

" Nothing , " the students said.

"OK, what would happen if I held it up like this for an hour?" the professor asked.

"Your arm would begin to ache, " said one of the students.

"You are right, now what would happen if I held it up for a day?"

"Your arm could go numb(麻木的) , and you might have to go to hospital, " another student said.

"Very good ! But during all this, did the weight of the glass change?" asked the professor.

"NO"

"Then what made the arm ache and the muscle(肌肉 ) stress?"

The students were puzzled.

" Put the glass down" said one of the students.

"Exactly ! " said the professor. " Life's problems are something like this. Hold them for minutes in your head and they seem OK. Think of them for a long time and they begin to ache. Hold them even longer and they begin to trouble you. You will not be able to do anything. It's important to think of the problems in your life, but even more important to ' put them down' at the end of every day before you go to sleep. That way, you are not stressed; you wake up every day fresh and strong and can handle any issue, any challenge that comes your way ! "
