The car was only a couple of yards away now. I drove the bike right across its 49 , and its brakes（煞车）screamed as the driver tried to pull it over and 50 into the ditch（沟）at the side of the road.

Gould, now a 47-year-old mother of four, has announced she will be making a return to elite competition（顶级赛事）to swim the one event, having set a qualifying time of 30.32 seconds in winning gold at last years United States Masters championships. Her comeback comes 32 years after she won three golds at the Munich Olympics. Schipper, now a 17-year-old from Brisbane with a bright future of going to Athens for her first Olympics, yesterday recalled her time with Gould five years ago. “ I was at a national youth game on the Gold Coast and Shane had come along to talk to us and watch us train, ” Schipper explained. “ It seemed as if we had long been good friends. I dont know why. We just started talking and it went from there. ”“ She had a lot to share with all of us at that camp. She told us stories about what it was like at big meets like the Olympics and what its like to be on an Australian team. It was really interesting. ”Next time, things will be more serious. “ I will still be swimming in the 50m butterfly at the nationals, so there is a chance that I could actually be competing against Shane Gould, ” said Schipper, who burst onto the scene at last years national championships with second places in the 100m and 200m butterfly. 56.

The UK police recently agreed to use a device (装置) called the Sonic Teenager Deterrent. It sends out a sound that makes teenagers become so impatient and angry that they have to cover their ears tightly and walk away.The sound is at extreme high-pitch that can be heard by those under 20. The bodys natural ability to detect some wave bands (波段) decreases almost entirely after 20, so few adults can hear the sounds. The black-box device, nicknamed the Mosquito because of its sound, can be fixed to the outside walls of shops, offices and homes. It sounds to youngsters like a crazy insect or a badly played violin. But it causes no physical damage.A number of police forces and councils have given permission to use the system and want to install it at trouble spots.Staffordshire Police Inspector Amanda Davies, who has given the device to shopkeepers in the Moorlands area, said, It is controlled by the shopkeepers-if they can see through their window that there is a problem, they turn the device on for a while until the group has run away.60.
