16、pay you next week.”I made a note on his card that this was the fifth week in a row he had shouted those same words.Every week I had cold feet about charging for the newspapers at Mr.Schaefers house.As soon as I took the first step up,two German Shepherd dogs bolted(突然快跑)against the screen door.Their

17、 barking always pushed me one step back from the door.“Dont worry.They wont hurt you,”a voice shouted from inside the house.Mr.Schaefer came to the door to pay his bill with a dollar clenched(咬紧)between his teeth while he held each dog by their collar.Grabbing the money from his mouth.I turned and r

18、an,thinking those fierce dogs were going to break free and eat me alive.Every two weeks,Mr.Kloch from The Ledger would come to collect the money.After I paid the amount,the rest was mine.Counting the change was the fun part to see how much money Id made.My first job as a paperboy taught me about man

23、n.Consisting of a series of wooden brackets(支架)with no nails or fasteners,its over 2,500 years old and commonly found in Chinese architecture,such as Beijings Forbidden City.Many structures built during the Tang and Song dynasties featured“curtain walls”which were non-load-bearing.As a result,the un

24、supported wood shouldering the weight might break.Designers needed a technique which would more evenly spread the burden across their structures.Their solution was dougong.Engineering has come a long way since the ancient Chinese building technique was in fashion.But theres a timeless quality to it.

25、Modern-day designers in many areas are adopting it to produce amazing and stable work of architecture.Among them is Japanese architect Kengo Kuma,who used dougong-inspired methods for his recent buildings:Yusuhara Wooden Bridge Museum and Caf Kureon,a 2,120-square-foot restaurant.For architect Terre

32、ieve the civilization might be an early attempt at urbanization.But it isnt clear whether the sites,or perhaps the earliest cities,were fully inhabited(居住)year round and there is heated debate over what they were for.This puzzling culture,known as the Cucuteni-Trypillia,predates the earliest known c

33、ities in Mesopotamia.Researcher Monica Smith,the author of Cities:The First 6.000 Years,thinks the very large sites may have had something in common with Gobekli Tepe in modern Turkey.It is a building complex which is at least 10,000 years old and seems to have been a place where people gathered tog

37、n the belief that everyone was equal.”These were cities,but of a very different kind from the slave-owning(拥有奴隶的)societies of Mesopotamia a few centuries later.And our definition of a city may need expanding,argue Chapman and Gaydarska.32.What might have been the purpose of the Trypillian sites acco

43、be going through customs,check your suitcase before packing.Ensure that it is completely empty(especially if the suitcase is not yours),because as soon as youre in a security check,no one is responsible for its contents except you.Usually,suitcases have hidden zippers(拉链)along the center or side.Ope
