Manhattan artist Sally Davies the kids meal of fries and burger shows no sign of mould 霉菌 or decomposition 变质 In a work named The Happy Meal Project Mrs Davies 54 tries to provide evidences that McDonald s food really is the worst you can put in your body Sitting on a shelf in her apartment Sally has watched the Happy Meal with increasing shock and even her dogs have resisted the urge to try and steal a free tasty snack I bought the meal on April 10 of this year and brought it home with the intention of leaving it out to see how it changed she said I chose McDonald s because it was nearest to my house The first thing that struck me on day two of the experiment was that it no longer gave out any smell And then the second point of note was that on the second day my dogs stopped circling the shelf it was sitting on trying to see what was up there Expecting the food to begin moulding after a few days Mrs Davies surprise turned to shock as the fries and burger still had not shown any signs of decomposition after two weeks It was then that I realised that something strange might be going on with this food that I had bought she explained The overall appearance of the food did not change as the weeks turned to months And now at six months old the food is plastic to the touch The only change that I can see is that it has become hard as a rock As a strict vegetarian Mrs Davies experiment has brought her amusement rather than fear Maybe I would be frightened at seeing this if I was a meat 用心 爱心 专心 eater Why hasn t even the bread become with mould It is strange 60 We

announcing a refitting 改装的 project of an imported aircraft carrier for the purposes of scientific research and training some voices overseas expressed concern that China s possession of an aircraft carrier could upset the regional and global strategic balance At present China is only making use of an old aircraft carrier platform for scientific research experiments and training and it still will take a long time before the country actually has an operational carrier said the commentary signed by Peng Guangqian Even when China has a carrier it will stick to the defensive nature of its defense policy the commentary said adding that China has plenty of reasons and legitimacy 合法 to have an aircraft carrier China is currently the only country without an operational aircraft carrier among the

China is going to buy some aircraft carriers from Europe D China only plans to make an aircraft carrier but hasn t put it into practice D D Producing money requires both artistic and technological skills Dollar bills are made so that they are interesting to look at but very hard to copy In total there are sixty five separate steps required to make a dollar bill The money making process begins when a yearly order sent by the Federal Reserve Board That order will then be divided in half Half will be done here in Washington D C and the other half will be done in Fort Worth Texas Next the Bureau orders special paper which is actually cloth since it is 75 cotton and 25 linen This paper is made so that it can last a long time And it is made with details that make it hard to copy For example bills contain security threads These narrow pieces of plastic are inside the paper and run along the width of the bill This special paper is also made with very small blue and red fibers Once the money is printed guillotine cutters separate the sheets into two notes then into individual notes The notes are organized in bricks each of which contains forty one hundred note packages The bricks then go to one of twelve Federal Reserve Districts which then give the money to local banks Ninety five percent of the bills printed each year are used to replace money that is in circulation or that has already been removed from circulation You may know that America s first president George Washington is pictured 用心 爱心 专心 on the one dollar bill But do you know whose face is on the two

in the American dollar bill A Four B Five C Six D Seven 71 Why are the two dollar bills not made often A Because they have the largest life span B Because their material is a bit more expensive C
