saw the bookshelf. it stood outside a furniture（家具）shop. “buy it,” she said at once. “well carry it home on the roof-rack（车顶架）. ive always wanted one like that.” what could i do? ten minutes later i was twenty dollars poorer, and the bookshelf was tied on to the roof rack. it was tall and narrow, quite heavy too. as it was getting darker, i drove slowly. other drivers seemed more polite than usual that evening. the police even stopped traffic to let us through. carrying furniture was a good idea. after a time my wife said, “theres a long line of cars behind. why dont they overtake（超车）?” just at that time a police car did overtake. the two officers inside looked at us seriously when they went past. but then, with a kind smile they asked us to follow their car through the busy traffic.

very kind. i live just down the road.” he was looking at our things: first at the flowers, then at the bookshelf. “well, well,” he said and laughed. “its a bookshelf youve got there! we thought it

popular all over the world. people use them on trains and airplanes, in airports and hotels. these laptops connect people to their workplace. in the united states today, laptops also connect students to their classrooms. westlake college in virginia will start a laptop computer program that allows students to do schoolwork anywhere they want. within five years, each of the 1500 students at the college will receive a laptop. the laptops are part of a10 million computer program at westlake, a 110-year-old college. the students with laptops will also have access to the internet. in addition, they will be able to use e-mail to“speak” with their teachers, their classmates, and their families. however, the most important part of the laptop program is that students will be able to use computers without going to computer labs. they can work with it at home, in a fast-food restaurant or under the trees-anywhere at all! because of the many changes in computer technology , laptop use in higher education, such as colleges and universities, is workable. as laptops become more powerful, they become more similar to desktop computers. in addition, the portable computers can connect students to not only the internet, but also libraries and other resources. state higher-education officials are studying how laptops can help students. state officials are also testing laptop programs at other universities, too. at westlake college, more than 60 percent of the staff use computers. the laptops will allow all teachers to use computers in their lessons. as one westlake teacher said,“

overly willful and unbending child may have trouble obeying teachers or coaches, for example, or trouble keeping friends. it can be pretty lonely as the top dog if no one likes your bossy ways. “i see more and more parents giving up their power,” says barkley, who has studied bossy behavior for more than 30 years. “they bend too far because they dont want to be as strict as their own parents were. but they also feel less confident about their parenting skills. their kids, in turn, feel more anxious.”66bossy children like stephen jackson amake good decisionsbshow self-centerednessclack care from
