美国制造,中国所有!-中国企业跨国制造

[财富]美国制造,中国所有!American made ... Chinese ownedCompanies from China are spending billions to build factories in the U.S. -- and creating new jobs for American workers. By Sheridan PrassoAbout a mile past the Bountiful Blessings Church on the outskirts of Spartanburg, S.C., make a right turn. There, tucked into an industrialcourt behind a row of sapling cherry trees not much taller than I am, past a company that makes rubber stamps and another that stitches logos onto caps and bags, is a brand-new factory: the state-of-the-art American Yuncheng Gravure Cylinder plant. Due to open any day now, it will make cylinders used to print labels like the ones around plastic soda bottles. But unlike its neighbors in Spartanburg, Yuncheng is a Chinese company. It has come to South Carolina because by Chinese standards, America is darn cheap.Yes, you read that right. The land Yuncheng purchased in Spartanburg, at $350,000 for 6.5 acres, cost one-fourth the price of land back in Shanghai or Dongguan, a gritty city near Hong Kong where the company already runs three plants. Electricity is cheaper too: Yungcheng pays up to 14¢ per kilowatt-hour in China at peak usage, and just 4¢ in South Carolina. And no brownouts either, a sporadic problem in China. It's true that American workers are much more expensive, of course, and the overall cost of making a widget in China remains lower, and perhaps always will.But for hundreds of Chinese companies like Yuncheng, the U.S. has become a better, less expensive place to set up shop. It could be the biggest role reversal since, well ... when Nixon went to China. "The gap between manufacturing costs in the U.S. and China is shrinking," explains John Ling, a naturalized American from China who runs the South Carolina Department of Commerce's business recruitment office in Shanghai. Ling recruited Yuncheng to Spartanburg, and others too: Chinese companies have invested $280 million and created more than 1,200 jobs in South Carolina alone.Today some 33 American states, ports, and municipalities have sent representatives like Ling to China to lure jobs once lost to China back to the U.S.: Besides affordable land and reliable power, states and cities are offering tax credits and other incentives to woo Chinese manufacturers. Beijing, meanwhile, which has mandated that Chinese companies globalize by expanding to key markets around the world, is chipping in by offering to finance up to 30% of the initial investment costs, according to Chinese business sources.What would Henry Luce think?The enticements are working. Chinese companies announced new direct investments in the U.S. of close to $5 billion in 2009 alone, according to New York City-based economic consultancy the Rhodium Group, which tallied the numbers for Fortune. That's well below Japanese investment in the U.S., which peaked at $148 billion in 1991, but a big jump fromChina's previous investments, which had been averaging around $500 million a year. Chinese firms last year acquired or announced they were starting more than 50 U.S. companies. And when China finally allows the value of its currency, the yuan, to appreciate -- and it's just a question of when -- Americans can expect to see Chinese projects, small today, really take off and have an impact on the U.S. economy. This could be a good thing for relations between the two countries. "It will take many years to balance out the flow of U.S. investment into China," says Dan Rosen, a principal at the Rhodium Group. But, he says, China's aggressive interest in U.S. investment suddenly gives Washington some leverage as it seeks to negotiate with Beijing on tariffs, trade issues, and economic policy.None of that matters much in Spartanburg. Skilled workers at American Yuncheng will earn $25 to $30 an hour, line operators $10 to $12. That's a lot more than the $2 an hour that unskilled labor costs in China, but the company can qualify for a state payroll tax credit of $1,500 per worker (for any company creating more than 10 jobs). And by being closer to companies like Coca-Cola, Yuncheng can respond more quickly when they need new labels designed to show that a product has reduced its fat content or added more flavor. If business goes well, company president Li Wenchun expects to double the size of his operation, maybe in five to 10 years, and employ up to 120 Americans. "I'd like it to be next month, but it depends on how fast we develop the market here," he tells me through a Mandarin interpreter.So far there's little sign of anti-Chinese sentiment among South Carolinians, who watched their state lose its cotton-basedtextile-manufacturing industry to low-cost countries like China. Fortune asked Sen. Jim DeMint, a Republican torchbearer for conservative causes, what he thinks of communists creating work in his home state. "South Carolina is one of the best places in the world to do business, and that's why so many international companies are moving jobs into our state" is his only reply.Brenda Missouri, a 43-year-old leaks tester who works for appliance maker Haier, speaks about her employer in glowing terms. Haier was the first Chinese company to build a factory in the U.S. -- a refrigerator plant in Camden, S.C., in 2000. "They're good business folks; they get the job done," she says. As for communism? "Doesn't matter," she shrugs. "It's money that makes the difference."Chinese companies, American workersLast December the National Committee on U.S.-China Relations dispatched me to Corpus Christi to give a speech about the Chinese and their economy. Why? Because, they told me, the region is about to become home to the largest-ever Chinese-built factory in the U.S., a $1 billion plant by Tianjin Pipe Group to manufacture seamless pipe for oil drilling. If everything proceeds as planned -- the company received its air-quality permit on April 14 and hopes to break ground by fall -- Tianjin Pipe expects to employ 600 Texans by 2012 and to provide an estimated $2.7 billion to the local economy over the next decade. Corpus Christians, it turned out, wanted to know more about their new neighbors who are expected to relocate 40 to 50 families to Texas.Upon arrival, I find it impossible not to notice the resemblance of Corpus Christi's long, curving coastline on the Gulf of Mexico to the one near Tianjin on the Bohai Sea between northern China and Korea. Some 75 U.S. locales competed for the factory, but when Chinese delegations from Tianjin Pipe visited Corpus Christi, the townspeople made them feel at home by welcoming the visitors to backyard barbecues. They even enlisted the Taiwan-born former owner of the local Chinese restaurant, Yalee Shih -- perhaps the only woman in town who could speak Mandarin -- to help them navigate cultural nuances. Shih, who also sits on the board of the Texas State Museum of Asian Cultures, delicately helped prevent a multimillion-dollar translation error over building costs that might have cost Corpus Christi the project, and also quashed what would have been an impolitic gift of clocks -- which to the Chinese symbolize death or the end of a relationship -- from a local retailer. She and others in the region's business community plan to help guide their new residents through life in America, like how to buy a car, how to rent a house, as well as where to go to buy fragrant rice instead of Uncle Ben's.In the end, while feeling at home helps, it does come down to business, says J.J. Johnston, executive vice president and chief business development officer of the Corpus Christi Regional Economic Development Corp. "They like the strategic location of our region, the convenient access to materials coming in -- mostly scrap metal and pig iron -- and the ability to export to North and South America through the port of Corpus Christi," he says.There are other incentives. On April 9 the U.S. Commerce Department imposed import duties of up to 99% on the type of seamless pipe that is to be manufactured by Tianjin Pipe -- a reprisal prompted by the United Steelworkers union. The Chinese company, the world's largest maker of steel pipe, had said it could not afford to export to the U.S. if tariffs were over 20%. Now its pipe will be made in America. "It's just anotherreason they have to have a U.S.-based production facility," says Johnston.Even without tariffs, Tianjin had been looking to expand -- as are many Chinese companies once they reach about $100 million in annual sales. "Chinese companies, as they get bigger, have to start thinking about their global positioning," says Clarence Kwan, who runs the Chinese Services Group at Deloitte, which advises Chinese companies on doing business in the U.S. Officially the Chinese government has given approval to over 1,200 Chinese investments in the U.S., but that number is considered low because it doesn't count those made via Hong Kong -- where many Chinese companies earn equity capital from being publicly traded -- or tax havens like the Virgin Islands, where Chinese investment may stop first before flowing to the U.S. Plus, investments below $100 million don't need Beijing's nod and may be approved at the local level.Chinese companies see America as more than a manufacturing center. So far this year they have announced plans to build a wind-energy turbine plant and wind farm in Nevada that will create 1,000 American jobs; purchased the 400-employee Los Angeles Marriott Downtown out of foreclosure; and acquired a shuttered shopping center in Milwaukee, with plans to turn it into a mega-mall for 200 Chinese retailers. In some cases Chinese companies are resuscitating American outfits that had been left for dead. About 70 miles west of Spartanburg, near the Georgia border, past signs reading "24-hour fried chicken," another Chinese company is hiring engineers -- metallurgical and mechanical, some from nearby Clemson University. In June 2009, Top-Eastern Group, a tool manufacturer based in China's coastal city of Dalian, acquired a factory here along with three other facilities from Kennametal, one of America's largest machine-tool makers, after the U.S. company, based in Latrobe, Pa., reported a $137 million loss (citing a slowdown in industrial activity) in the quarter before the sale.This plant, in Seneca, S.C., makes drill bits. And in the months since his purchase of it for $29 million, Top-Eastern founder Jeff Chee has invested another $10 million to upgrade machinery, built a $3 million logistics center, brought back Kennametal's furloughed workers, hired 120 more, and now has his 260-employee plant working overtime filling orders for the Cleveland Twist Drills, Chicago Latrobe, Putnam, and Bassett brands he acquired. He brought back the company's old name, which was Greenfield Industries before Kennametal acquired it in 1997, and emblazoned it on a sign out front.General Electric's former CEO , Jack Welch, he volunteers, is his inspiration. "I've read a lot of books, and I learned a lot from him,"Chee says in broken English amid the sharp smell of grinding steel. "One person can change a lot." As one of China's self-made entrepreneurs, who started Top-Eastern in 1994 with just $500, Chee now has worldwide sales of more than $120 million, 4,000 employees, and factories in Germany and Brazil. He visits the South Carolina plant monthly to make sure all is proceeding as planned, and employs American managers to run it in his absence rather than bring over Chinese. "There's good, experienced people and good know-how already here," he says.How can he make a drill bit factory profitable where Kennametal had struggled? By increasing productivity with new equipment and cutting costs, he says. Plus, Chee forges his own steel, and he owns the mines back in China for two of its more expensive components, tungsten and molybdenum. The fact that he can source from himself means he keeps the margins -- and now his tools are officially made in the U.S. The cost of making those products is much higher than in China, he says, "but the problem is customers just accept 'made in U.S.A.' products, so I have no choice. Lots of customers here have government contracts that have 'made in U.S.A.' requirements."And how do the employees feel about having a Chinese entrepreneur come to their rescue? "Just because it's a Chinese owner, they don't really care," says Scott Henderson, a 47-year-old manufacturing manager who had been furloughed one week a month along with his workers before Chee bought the factory. "They're all happy to be working 40 hours a week." They also have the opportunity for overtime, and a third, graveyard shift has been added to serve a nearly 40% rise in orders. "I feel great about it," says Sam Marcengill, a 24-year-old technician at the plant. Last year he was laid off for six months before Chee's purchase gave him his job back. Now he's on overtime, 48 hours a week. "The work's a lot more steady. It's better. Personally I'm a lot better off. It's a great thing."Never mind the hiccups Chinese companies experienced when they tried to enter the U.S. before. In 2005, Washington famously blocked China's National Offshore Oil Corp. (CNOO C) from buying Unocal, and Chinese appliance maker Haier failed to acquire Maytag. Now, like the Japanese in the 1980s -- when U.S. trade frictions combined with Japan's boom blossomed into Honda and Toyota manufacturing plants -- the Chinese are here to stay. Their presence initially made some folks uneasy. A few years ago a caller to The Rush Limbaugh Show complained that as he was driving past the Haier plant in Camden, the Chinese flag was flying higher than the American flag and the South Carolina state flag out front. It was an easy mistake to make by anyone looking at the three equal-height flagpoles from an angle.Conservative media joined in and called for protests, and the public rang the factory to complain. The Chinese executives at Haier had no idea flags were such a big deal, and it became their bugaboo. The complaints continued until about a year and a half ago when Haier America factory president Joseph Sexton, who was new to the job, decided to fix it. He had two of the poles lowered so that the U.S. flag looks highest from all angles.It took Haier some time to work through the issues of being a Chinese employer in a small, historic Southern town (pop. 6,682) lined with stately antebellum houses and home to two Revolutionary War battlefields. "Having a Chinese manager didn't work. That's why they took all the Chinese managers out of here," says Haier's human resources director, Gerald Reeves, who was one of the first hired by Haier and guided the Chinese through the realities of American-style personnel management -- including convincing them that they needed to offer health insurance. He once even asked John Ling, South Carolina's man in Shanghai, to fly home from China to talk to a manager who was arousing employee resentment by publicly embarrassing the workers, Chinese-style, for their mistakes.Now the only way to know you're in a Chinese factory is by looking up at the large Chinese flag hanging from the rafters -- alongside an American one, of course -- and by the very Chinese motivational slogans on the walls: "Spirit of entrepreneurship -- strive for a clearly defined objective and make the impossible possible without an excuse" reads the banner over the refrigerator testing line. And if you come in February, Sexton organizes a Chinese New Year party with food and outdoor firecrackers.What is perhaps most startling about the Haier factory is that it is actually shipping goods back to China. Best known for its mini-fridges for dorm rooms and studio apartments, Haier's U.S. plant also makes large units, good for supersized American McMansions but too large for a typical Chinese household. Now a growing number of wealthy people in China want to supersize too, so Haier has realized it can ship a small number, maybe 4,000 a year, of its highest-end refrigerators home and sell them for $2,600 apiece -- more than China's average annual income of around $2,000. (Haier also ships U.S.-made refrigerators to India, Australia, Mexico, and Canada.) There aren't enough wealthy customers yet to make it worthwhile retooling any of the 29 Haier factories in China, but the nearby deepwater port in Charleston, S.C., makes export easy enough. "There are folks in China who want high-end products," says Haier America factory president Joseph Sexton. "China is a much different place than people think."Chinese newcomers would do well to learn from Haier's missteps as well as its great strides. "They're coming with little experience into a highly sophisticated market, and they are bound to make mistakes," says Karl Sauvant, executive director of the Vale Columbia Center on Sustainable International Investment at Columbia University and a law lecturer there, who in February published an edited volume titled Investing in the United States: Is the U.S. Ready for FDI From China?"This is the thing the Japanese did fairly successfully: You have to be a good corporate citizen, source locally, contribute to causes and charities in the local community, and be familiar with how to navigate the corridors of Washington," says Sauvant. "And in key managerial positions you should have Americans." Legal questions, such as whether Chinese companies operating in America would be subject in U.S. courts to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act for business practices in, say, India or elsewhere have yet to be tested, he says. And then there's the issue of the local sensitivities exhibited in the Haier flag-flying incident.Unlike Japan, China is no U.S. military ally -- despite President Obama's naming China a "strategic partner," instead of the "strategic competitor" label it had under the Bush administration. Politically it remains a communist country, despite its capitalist economy. There's obviously more to overcome.Chinese investors say they don't care too much about politics, but hope their entry into the U.S. can be a positive force. "This will definitely help U.S.-China relations," remarks Li, the manager of the print-cylinder factory Yuncheng, as he guides me on a tour. "Increasing communication makes the two sides closer." Even if it doesn't, business is business. "Good products are borderless," he notes. And there's always a Chinese proverb to cite: "It takes 10 years to make a sword," says Li. In other words, keep at it till you get it right, and the outcome will be strong and lasting. And perhaps transform into the plowshare that sows a mutually beneficial harvest for America and China both.。

Traditional Tibetan cuisine: Lunang Stone Pot ChickenThe reporters of China Tibet Online came to a village in the Nyingchi prefecture, where there is a famous Tibetan cuisine, Lunang Stone Pot Chicken cooked in a special stone pot.The cuisine uses local Tibetan chicken, which lives on the plateau at an elevation of 3,200 to 4, 000 meters. This kind of chicken is good at flying because of the small figure. The chicken meat tastes chewy.The Tibetan chickens are raised in a pollution-free environment and feed on green grass and small bugs. They are adapted to the changeable cold plateau climate. The chicken meat is rich in protein, energy and low in fat.Moreover, the auxiliary ingredients are also specific and important, including gymnadnia conopsear broyn, codonopsis pilosula and Tibetan fritillaria thun-bergli. In particular, the gymnadnia conopsear broyn, also named as rhizome of conic gymnadenia, gets its name because it just looks like a human's palm (In Chinese, its name is "Shouzhang Shen", which means a palm-looking ginseng). The gymnadnia conopsear broyn, also as a Tibetan medicine, is effective in nourishing yin and kidney.The stone pot used for stewing chicken meat is made of stones in the mountains of the Nyingchi prefecture. The stone pot is firm and endurable, which won't be cracked by fire.The local people in the Nyingchi prefecture always gather in the restaurants in winter to enjoy the Lunang Stone Pot Chicken.

九年级waterproblems英语作文全文共6篇示例,供读者参考篇1Ninth Grade Water ProblemsOh boy, water problems in ninth grade were really hard! I'm so glad I'm not in ninth grade anymore. Let me tell you all about the crazy water problems we had to do back then.It all started when our mean old math teacher Mrs. Crunklebunks assigned us a whole bundle of water problems for homework. I'm talking like 20 problems! That's a lot when you're a ninth grader. We all groaned because water problems are the worst. Well, except for maybe word problems about trains. Those are pretty awful too.Anyway, the first problem was something like "If a bathtub is being filled at a rate of 3 gallons per minute, how many gallons of water will the tub contain after 5 minutes?" Seems pretty easy, right? But you had to set it up as an equation and everything. The equation was: Water in Tub = Rate x Time. So you plug in 3 gallons per minute for the rate and 5 minutes for the time and it works out to 3 x 5 = 15 gallons. Phew, not so bad!But then the problems started getting really tricky. Like problem #5 said "A water tank has two pipes, one filling it at 8 gallons per minute and one emptying it at 5 gallons per minute. If the tank starts empty, how long will it take to become full?" Oh man, I had to make a diagram and everything for that one!After struggling forever, I finally figured out you had to find the net rate that the tank was filling up, which was 8 gallons/min - 5 gallons/min = 3 gallons/min. Then you treat it like a regular bathtub filling problem, but with 3 gallons/min as the rate instead of 8. So if the tank holds 120 gallons, it would take 120/3 = 40 minutes to fill up. Yikes!And it just kept getting worse from there. Some problems had two tanks connected where water was flowing between them at different rates. Others had depth and diameter so you had to use those cylinder volume formulas. It was all just a big brain-muddling mess.The absolute worst one was problem #19 though. I still have nightmares about that thing. It said "A hot tub is filled with 500 gallons of water at 104°F. Cold water at 65°F begins flowing into the hot tub at 3 gallons/min and the water is kept thoroughly mixed. Meanwhile, the hot tub loses heat to the surroundings ata rate of 1000 BTU/min. If the heat capacity of water is 8BTU/gal/°F, find the temperature of the water after 40 minutes."I still don't even really know what that means! There were all these rates and amounts and temperatures and formulas. I just started crying while working on it. Even the smartest kids in the class had to get help from their parents on that one. I guess there was some trick with making two equations and solving them together? I have no idea, it was brutal.So yeah, those ninth grade water problems were no joke. Gallons per minute this, heat capacity that...my poor ninth grade brain could barely handle it all. I'll tell you one thing, I have a newfound respect for plumbers and hot tub technicians after that unit. If you ever get a job dealing with water flow rates and heating temperatures, you deserve to get paid a million dollars an hour as far as I'm concerned!Anyway, I'm just really glad to be done with ninth grade math forever. No more water problems, geometry proofs, systems of equations, or any of that headache-inducing stuff. Tasty cafeteria chicken nuggets and kickball at recess, here I come! Ah, elementary school is the life.篇2Water Problems - A 9th Grade EssayWater, water everywhere, but not a drop to drink! At least, that's how it can feel sometimes with all the water problems we have in the world. From dirty rivers and lakes to places that don't have enough clean water for people to drink and wash with, water issues are a really big deal.In some parts of the world, there's too much water and it causes huge floods that ruin homes and farms. In other areas, there's way too little water and people struggle just to find enough to survive. Then you've got water pollution makingwater unsafe to use. It's a bunch of different water problems all tangled up together like a big knotted ball of string. Let me explain more about each one.FloodsFloods happen when there is way too much water in an area, usually from heavy rains or a river overflowing its banks. The water gushes over the land, getting everything wet and causing huge messes and damage. Homes and buildings can get washed away completely if the flooding is really bad. Anything outdoors like cars, playgrounds, and farms get totally submerged underwater too.I saw some crazy videos online of flood waters rushing through streets like raging rivers, sweeping up cars and debris. It must be so scary to be caught in a flood! Some of the worst flooding happens in low-lying areas near coasts when hurricanes or tropical storms hit. All that wind and rain from the storms puts too much water onto the land too fast.Water ScarcityWhile some places have too much water, others don't have enough at all. This lack of sufficient water resources is called water scarcity. In very dry, desert-like regions, there may be very little rainfall each year to provide fresh water for drinking, bathing, farming, and manufacturing.People in these areas have to strictly ration and conserve as much water as possible. That means taking super short showers, never leaving the faucets running, and reusing water for different purposes like watering plants with used cooking water. Some villages have to get water deliveries trucked in from other towns because they barely have any natural fresh water sources around.I couldn't imagine having to worry about running out of water all the time like that. Just think about not being able to flush the toilet or take a shower or bath whenever you want! It would be pretty gross. And not having enough water for cropsmeans food shortages too. Water scarcity is a huge problem for people's basic survival.Water PollutionGross! Polluted water that's contaminated with chemicals, garbage, and human/animal waste is yet another major water issue these days. Both ocean water and freshwater sources like lakes, rivers, and groundwater supplies can all get polluted in different ways.Sometimes factories, farms, and cities dump toxic chemicals and waste products right into water sources without properly treating it first. Fertilizer and pesticide runoff from agriculture is another culprit. Trash and plastic garbage that gets thrown onto the ground can eventually make its way into waterways through storm drains too.When water gets polluted, it's no longer safe for people to drink, cook, bathe, or swim in it. Polluted waters spread disease and make fish and other sea life sick or die off. Imagine being stuck on a boat in the middle of an ocean filled with trash and toxic chemicals instead of clean blue water! No thanks, I'll pass on taking a dip in those dirty waters.Possible Solutions?So what can be done to help solve all these awful water problems around the world? Well, for areas with too much water causing floods, building better drainage systems, dams, levees and water diversion channels in high-risk zones can help. Residents may sometimes need to evacuate low-lying areas when forecasts call for heavy rains too.To tackle water scarcity, technologies like desalination plants to make saltwater drinkable and water recycling systems can increase available fresh water supplies. Developing affordable ways for dry regions to trap seasonal rainwater runoff and condensation could help too. Of course, people just need to conserve more and not be wasteful with water either.As for water pollution, laws need to crack down hard on banning the dumping and release of contaminants into water sources by industries and municipalities. Garbage needs篇3Water ProblemsBy Claude, 9th Grade StudentWater, water everywhere, but not a drop to drink! That old saying is becoming more and more true every day. Waterproblems are some of the biggest issues facing the world today. Whether it's dirty water making people sick, not enough water for crops and animals, or crazy storms and floods from climate change, water troubles are causing huge headaches for everyone on planet Earth.The first big water problem is lack of clean drinking water. Can you even imagine not being able to turn on the tap and get fresh, pure water whenever you want? Well, that's the reality for like a billion people across the globe. Mostly in poor countries in Africa, Asia, and Latin America, the water sources are contaminated with bacteria, viruses, parasites and chemicals. Just trying to get drinking water makes millions of kids and adults sick every year with diseases like cholera, dysentery, hepatitis and more. And women and girls have to walk miles every day just to collect brackish, scummy water that could make their families sick. That's no way to live!Another huge headache is not having sufficient water for agriculture and animals. Farmers in many parts of the world don't have proper irrigation systems to water their crops. Their harvests fail, food gets scarce, and people go hungry. Plus, animals like cows, goats and chickens need water to survive. But with worsening droughts in some areas, herds and flocks aredying off, leaving people without a vital food source. In places like the Sahel region of Africa, lack of rain is turning green lands into deserts through a process called desertification. People and animals are having to abandon their traditional homelands in search of water. It's a humanitarian crisis!Of course, as the climate keeps getting warmer, water issues are becoming even crazier. Rising temperatures cause more evaporation from oceans and lakes, leading to disruptive changes in weather patterns. Some areas get massive floods from heavier rain and snowfall, while other spots get extreme, long-lasting droughts. Too much water in some places, not enough in others - it's a big mess!Flooding rivers have wiped out entire neighborhoods and communities. Can you picture your house getting swamped up to the rooftop by muddy, rushing floodwater? Scary stuff! And along the coasts, rising sea levels creep farther inland, spoiling freshwater aquifers with salt. Islands and coastal cities may one day be reclaimed by the ocean.But on the opposite extreme, droughts bring their own set of troubles. Half the country is in some level of drought conditions right now. Wildfires spread rapidly due to dry underbrush and vegetation. Food prices skyrocket as crop yields plummet. Fightseven break out over water sources for irrigation, livestock and human consumption. These droughts are only expected to intensify in many regions as the planet keeps heating up.All in all, I'd say water problems threaten the whole human race. If we can't find a way to secure safe, reliable drinking water, grow enough food through irrigation, and manage the water cycle as the climate shifts, some parts of the world could become unlivable in our lifetimes. Sea levels could swallow islands and coastal cities. Droughts could leave farmlands permanently parched. Crop failures could lead to mass migration as people flee in search of food and water.It's a daunting thought, but I do think some solutions are out there if we act quickly. Building better wells, purification systems, dams and irrigation networks in developing countries could go a long way. Protecting wetlands and replanting forests could help stabilize the water cycle. Switching to renewable energy instead of fossil fuels could slow down global warming and rising seas. Improving water efficiency for homes, businesses and farms would stretch limited supplies.But fixing water problems requires global cooperation and action by every country, company and person on Earth. We all need to do our part to conserve water, develop newtechnologies, and put serious money and effort into solving the freshwater crisis. Because at the rate we're going, the precious water we depend on for life could dry up, literally! And that would be a catastrophe for humankind.So those are just some of my thoughts on the massive water troubles facing the world. From toxic drinking sources to crop failures to crazy weather extremes, our most vital natural resource is under assault. It's a complex issue with no easy solutions. But we have to figure out how to protect and preserve our limited freshwater supplies. The human race's very survival could hinge on solving the many devastating water problems across the planet. We're all in the same leaky boat, so to speak! The next drop of water you see, don't take it for granted!篇4Water Problems - An Essay by a 9th GraderHey guys! Today I want to talk to you about something super important - water problems. You might be thinking "Ugh, another lecture about saving water and taking shorter showers." But trust me, this is about way more than that!First off, let's talk about why water is so crucial. I mean, duh, we need it to survive! Every cell in our bodies needs water tofunction properly. But get this - water is also essential for producing our food, making the stuff we use every day, and generating energy. Crazy, right?Sadly, there are huge water problems happening all over the world. Millions of people don't have access to clean, safe water for drinking and basic sanitation. Can you imagine not being able to take a shower or flush the toilet? That would be so gross!One of the biggest water issues is drought. Droughts happen when there is way less rainfall than normal over a long period of time. This lack of water can totally ruin crop harvests, causing food shortages. It's a major problem in places like Africa, Australia, and the western United States.Then you've got water pollution, which is when water gets contaminated with icky chemicals, trash, and other nasty pollutants. This makes the water unsafe for humans and animals to use. Runoff from factories, farms, and cities is a leading cause of water pollution worldwide.You know that plastic waste we always hear about? A crazy amount of that ends up in our oceans, lakes, and rivers. All that plastic is so hazardous for marine life. I've seen pics of seals and turtles trapped in plastic rings and it breaks my heart!Speaking of oceans, rising sea levels from climate change are a massive threat. As glaciers and ice caps melt, sea levels rise and flood coastal areas. Some small island nations could literally disappear underwater if we don't get climate change under control.So what can we do about all these intense water problems? Well, for starters, we all need to use way less water in our daily lives. Take shorter showers, don't leave the tap running while brushing your teeth, only run full loads of laundry, you know the drill. Every drop counts!We also need to cut back majorly on all the plastic waste ending up in waterways. Start using reusable water bottles, straws篇5Water Problems EssayWater is really important for life on Earth. Without water, humans and animals and plants couldn't live. But there are a lot of big problems happening with water around the world that we need to learn about and try to fix.One of the biggest water problems is that many people don't have access to clean water for drinking, cooking, and bathing. Can you imagine not being able to turn on a tap and have fresh, safe water come out whenever you need it? That's the reality for almost 800 million people globally! A lot of them have to walk super long distances just to get water from a river or pond, and that water is often dirty and filled with germs that can make them sick.In some countries, the water crisis is made even worse by droughts, which are long periods of time with very little rainfall. With not enough rain, rivers and lakes dry up and there's hardly any freshwater left for people to use. Places like parts of Africa, the Middle East, India and even the western United States have been dealing with really bad droughts lately.Another major issue is water pollution. This happens when chemical waste, garbage, oil, and other nasty stuff gets dumped into water sources like rivers, lakes and the ocean. It can make the water poisonous and unsuitable for humans and animals to use. Imagine going to the beach and seeing tons of plastic bottles, bags, and other trash floating in the nasty, dirty water - no thanks! Polluted water is hazardous to our health and the environment.Poorer countries that don't have good waste management systems are really struggling with water pollution from industries and inadequate sewage treatment. But even richer nations like the US have had huge problems in the past like the Cuyahoga River fire in 1969 when the river was so polluted that it actually caught on fire! That helped lead to stricter environmental regulations, but we still have issues like agricultural runoff polluting waterways with fertilizers and pesticides.Water scarcity is another crisis brewing, especially as the world's population continues to grow. More people = more demand for freshwater for household and industrial uses. But there's only a limited supply of renewable freshwater on the planet, like from rivers, lakes, and underground aquifers. We could run out if we're not careful!Some regions are already facing "Day Zero" situations where cities are on the brink of having absolutely no water left at all. Cape Town, South Africa narrowly avoided that terrifying scenario a few years ago and had to impose strict water rationing on residents. Climate change and overconsumption of water resources is making scarcity worse in many arid parts of the globe.So those are some of the biggest issues related to our most precious natural resource. Not having enough clean, safe water affects everything from our health and hygiene to food production, industry, and the environment. Here are some things we can try to do to help:At home, we should never leave taps running unnecessarily and fix any leaks right away to avoid wasted water. Taking shorter showers, only running full loads of laundry, and not overwatering lawns and gardens can also conserve a lot. Every drop counts!Reducing pollution is critical too. That means not littering or dumping gross chemicals in waterways, and choosing environmentally-friendly household cleaners and lawn products that don't contain harsh chemicals. We should also cut down on single-use plastics like water bottles that can end up contaminating the oceans.Governments and big companies have a huge role to play as well. They need to better regulate industrial waste, upgrade sewer systems, and invest much more in water infrastructure to ensure clean supplies. New technologies like desalination plants that remove salt from ocean water could help increase freshwater availability. We need innovative solutions becausewater crises are only going to keep getting worse due to climate change causing more droughts, floods, and sea level rise that could contaminate groundwater supplies.At the end of the day, we all need to value water as thelife-sustaining treasure that it is. It's not something to be wasted or polluted carelessly. Conserving water and keeping it clean should be one of humanity's top priorities for our own survival and that of the planet. We're all in the same leaky boat, so to speak, when it comes to the fate of ourwater supply. Let's do whatever we can to turn off the taps on these pressing water problems before it's too late!篇6Ninth Grade Water ProblemsHi friends! Today I want to tell you all about the big water problems the ninth graders at my school had this year. It was really crazy and funny, but also kind of sad too.It all started at the beginning of the school year when the ninth grade class came back from summer vacation. The teachers have this tradition where on the first day of school, they make all the ninth graders carry around water bottles with them everywhere they go. They have to keep the water bottles full atall times and take sips from them during class. It's to teach them to stay hydrated I guess.Well, this one ninth grade boy, let's call him Tommy, forgot his water bottle on the first day. No big deal right? Wrong! The ninth grade teacher, Mr. Stevenson, was super mad. He made Tommy wear a dorky hat that said "I forgot my water bottle" all day long. Tommy had to wear that embarrassing hat even at lunch when all the other kids could see him. It was so funny watching him trying to hide under the lunch table!A few weeks later, there was another crazy water bottle incident. This girl, Julie, accidentally dropped her water bottle on the floor during Mr. Stevenson's math class. When it fell, it made a really loud bang and spilled water all over the place. You should have seen Mr. Stevenson's face - he looked like a tomato he was so mad! He made Julie stay after class and mop up all the water while the rest of us ninth graders watched and laughed.The worst water bottle incident happened right before Christmas break though. We were all getting ready to watch a movie in class as a holiday treat. Right when Mr. Stevenson hit play, this boy Alex went to take a big gulp from his water bottle. But instead of water, he had accidentally filled it up with soda that morning! The soda went spraying out of his mouth and allover the desk behind him. It got all over this girl Sophia's hair and clothes. She started crying and ran out of the classroom. Alex had to clean up the whole sticky mess while the rest of us missed the movie. Mr. Stevenson made him write a huge apology letter to Sophia too.After that, Mr. Stevenson finally gave up on forcing us to have the water bottles. I guess we just weren't responsible enough yet. Although I have to admit, it was pretty hilarious watching everyone messing up with their water bottles all the time. You'd think by ninth grade we could handle something as simple as drinking water, but I guess not!So those are the big ninth grade water bottle fails from this year. Between Tommy and his embarrassing hat, Julie's big water spill, and Alex spraying soda everywhere, it sure was an entertaining couple of months! I can't wait to be a ninth grader next year so I can experience all the water problems myself. Just kidding - I'll try my best to avoid any water bottle mishaps! Let me know if you have any funny water stories from your school too. Thanks for reading, friends!。

The English II Prarie Hazel Chicken - Exploring the Wonders of NatureIntroduction:In the vast expanse of the prairies, a charming and fascinating creature roams freely - the English II prairie hazel chicken. This unique bird has captured the attention and curiosity of scientists and nature enthusiasts alike. In this article, we will journey into the world of this enchanting creature, exploring its origins, characteristics, habitat, and impact on the ecosystem.Origins:The English II prairie hazel chicken, also known as "Tetraonidae avosella," is native to the pristine grasslands of England. It belongs to the phylum Chordata and the class Aves, making it a close relative to the domestic chicken. However, unlike its domesticated cousin, the prairie hazel chicken has retained its wild nature, leading a completely natural and untamed existence.Characteristics:Measuring approximately 30 centimeters in height, the prairie hazel chicken is relatively small. It boasts stunning plumage, with a mix of hazel, brown, and specks of white feathers covering its body. Its wings are perfectly adapted for gliding and allow it to move swiftly across the landscape. The crowning glory of this bird is its striking tail feathers, displaying a unique pattern resembling an artist's brushstroke. These feathers serve as a visual display during mating rituals, attracting mates and securing reproductive success.Habitat:The prairie hazel chicken is highly adaptable and can be found in a range of grassland habitats. However, it prefers areas with a moderate climate, abundant food sources, and ample vegetation cover for protection from predators. Conservation efforts have focused on protecting the natural grasslands where this bird thrives, as these areas also provide a home to various species of flora and fauna.Diet:Being an omnivorous species, the prairie hazel chicken has a diverse diet. It feeds on a combination of small insects, seeds,berries, and various plant matter. This diet not only sustains the bird but also plays a critical role in maintaining the delicate balance of the ecotone within the grasslands.Reproduction:The prairie hazel chicken's mating rituals are a spectacle to behold. During the breeding season, males gather in a designated area, known as a lek, where they display their vibrant tail feathers and perform mesmerizing dances. This spectacle attracts females, who select their partners based on the strength of the display. Once a female has chosen a mate, they form a monogamous pair and work together to build a nest on the ground. The female will typically lay around 5-10 eggs, which both parents take turns incubating. After approximately three weeks, the eggs hatch, and the parents embark on the challenging task of raising their chicks.Ecological Importance:The prairie hazel chicken plays a crucial role in the ecological balance of the grasslands. As an omnivore, it helps control populations of small insects and pests, preventing outbreaks that could harm the surrounding vegetation and other animal species. Furthermore, the bird's droppings serve as natural fertilizer,enriching the soil and aiding in the growth of the grasses that make up its habitat.Conclusion:The English II prairie hazel chicken is not only a fascinating creature, but it also plays a significant role in the ecosystem it inhabits. Its ability to adapt, reproduce, and contribute to the ecological balance makes it a vital species worthy of our attention and conservation efforts. By learning more about this charming bird, we gain a deeper understanding of the intricate web of life that exists in the grasslands and the delicate relationships between species. Let us continue to appreciate and protect the natural wonders that surround us, including the captivating English II prairie hazel chicken.。

At a price of HK$281.24 million ($36.05 million), it was a record sale for auction house Sotheby's -- the highest price reached for a Chinese porcelain artifact. The previous record, HK$252.6 million ($32.4 million), was reached in 2010 for a Qianlong period vase, also at a Sotheby's sale.
这只杯子最终以2.8124亿港币(约合3605万美元)在苏富比拍卖行成交,打破了中国瓷器的拍卖纪录。

此前的拍卖纪录也诞生于苏富比拍卖行——2010年,乾隆时期的一个花瓶拍出了2.526亿港币(约合3240万美元)的高价。

The 500-plus-year old Meiyintang Chenghua "Chicken Cup, " is one of a reported 17 existing worldwide, most of which reside in museums, with a small number -- like Liu's new acquisition -- in private hands. It is so-called because of the decoration painted on its surface, showing two roosters, and a chicken tending her chicks.
这只玫茵堂成化年间的“鸡缸杯”有500多年的历史,据报道世界上现存的鸡缸杯仅剩17只,其中大多数存放在博物馆,小部分为私人所有,如刘益谦新得来的这只。

得名“鸡缸杯”是因它杯壁上绘有公鸡偕母鸡和雏鸡的图案。

"About a hundred years after they were made, in the late Ming dynasty, they were already highly sought after by emperors, " Nicolas Chow, deputy chairman of Sotheby's Asia and international head of Fine Chinese Ceramics and Works of Art, tells CNN.
苏富比拍卖行亚洲副主席及中国瓷器及工艺品部国际主管仇国仕告诉CNN,“在晚明时期,也就是它们被烧制出来约100年后,皇帝就以高价求购它们。


"By the late 17th century they were considered the most expensive objects money could buy."
“到了17世纪后期,它们已经成为人们能买到最贵的收藏品了。


Liu will house the incredibly rare item, known in collectors' circles as the "holy grail" of Chinese ceramics, in his private Long Museum in Shanghai.
这只杯子在收藏者中有中国陶瓷“圣杯”的美誉,刘益谦将会把这件稀世珍品收藏在自己位于上海的龙美术馆中。

Liu is one of China's ultra-wealthy with an estimated net worth of $900 million, a former taxi driver who made his fortune in finance. He has said he "doesn't care" about the price of the cup.
刘益谦是中国的巨富之一,净资产约有9亿美元。

他曾经是一名出租车司机,但后来投身金融业致富。

他曾表示自己“不在乎”这只杯子的价钱是多少。

Growing economic power from China, especially from super-rich Chinese collectors like Liu has contributed to Hong Kong's transformation into one of the world's auction hubs, and inflated prices around the globe.
中国不断成长的经济实力,特别是像刘益谦这样的中国巨富收藏家帮助香港成为了世界拍卖中心之一,同时也推动世界拍卖价格一路水涨船高。
