A Coincidence

One day Mrs Jones goes to her usual place to practise golf. She likes the game， viewing it as a good way of losing weight.

The place is open and empty with a huge tree standing on a low hill. Mrs Jones places a ball on the ground. Aiming at the tree， she waves a club and gives the ball a stroke. The ball shoots forward and hits right the tree. To Mrs Jones surprise， the tree sways and falls down. She can hardly believe her eyes， wondering if the ball has hit the tree trunk so hard as to break it. Mrs Jones drags her clubs and runs towards where the tree stood. Out of breath， she gets over the hill and sees what has actually happened. Two workmen are trimming the tree trunk. It is they who have felled the tree with an axe. Mrs Jones stands there watching， wiping sweats on her face with her handkerchief.

Blog

This histogram shows the number of people using blog services from January to October in 2007. From it we can see that the number of users increased monthly from January to August， except February. After two peak months， July and August， the number dropped slightly in September， while in October it picked up again. From Joozone.Com.

Possible reasons for these changes are first， in February Chinese people celebrated the most important festival—Chinese New Year. This means more people spent more time with their families and friends， and therefore they didnt have as much time for surfing online. Secondly， college students are the main users of blog services. While in July and August， they had summer holidays， which enabled them to have more spare time reading and writing blogs. Thirdly， with improvements of blog services and the influence of some “star bloggers”， most of whom are celebrities， blogs are becoming an important way for people to express themselves and communicate with others. So more and more people are starting to use these services， which help explain the overall increase shown here.366527F1-B9E8-4AE0-8BC6-92980CB4F5E0
