Part A
  There are stock markets(股票市场)in large cities in many countries. Stock markets in Paris, London, Tokyo, Shanghai and New York are among the largest and most well-known. The stock, also called stock exchange, is a place where people can buy or sell shares of a factory or company. And each share means certain ownership of a factory or company.

  Different people go to stock markets. Some are rich, who want to get more money than they have. Others are not very rich, who buy stocks to try to become rich. Still others buy stocks as part of their plan to save money.

  Of course, investing(投资)money in the stock market is not the safest way to make money. No one can tell exactly whether the shares will be doing well. The factory or company may do badly. Then the stocks will go down, and the investors3 will lose money. The stock may go up or down for a number of untold4 reasons. Everyone wants the stock to go up, but sometimes even if a factory or company does a good job, the stock may still go down.

  No wonder going to the stock market is often compared to gambling5(赌博).All are eager to make money by " gambling " in the stock market. Factories and companies that need money are pleased that so many people are willing to "gamble6". Indeed, the stock market is an attractive and complex part of the business world.

Part B

  "As I stood in front of the grave(墓)of President Richard Nixon, I was thinking about the time 25 years ago when this president helped bring the United States and China closer together. Young people of our two countries should help this relationship grow."

  This remark was made by a Shanghai student when speaking to his fellow students at the Nixon Library in California, U.S.A. He was one of 80 middle school students from China attending a month-long "Youth Summit7". The Summit was to mark the 25th anniversary (周年)of President Nixon's journey to China, which was the turning point in China-U.S. relations.

  The Youth Summit was aimed at increasing understanding and friendship between young students of the two countries through visits and discussions. Seventy-five American students were selected to visit China. They also visited the Nixon Library on July 21 before leaving for Beijing the next day. The head of the Library said he was pleased to see the American and Chinese students talking and laughing together. 

  One Chinese student said, "I didn't find it particularly difficult to talk with Americans. We have our differences, but we have a lot in common. Dialogue is good for us."
