14、so believed, for instance, during the Qing Dynasty(16441911) , that flying a kite and then letting it go, apartfrom the pleasure in itself, might send off ones bad luck and illness. Consequently it would bring him bad luck if one should pick up a kite lost by other people. This may be regarded as su
15、perstition (迷信)but may not be altogether without reason: think of the good it will do to a person, ill and depressed all the time, if he or she could go out into the fields and fresh air to fly a kite.Chinese kites fall into two major types: those with wings that can be taken apart and those with wi
16、ngs that are fixed. The former can be taken apart and packed in boxes. Easy to carry about, they make good presents.

A quarter of the respondents （受调查者） regarded postcards as old-fashioned and slow
23、to arrive. A further 14% admitted that thinking of something to fill the space was too challenging, compared with a call home.Although officially invented by a Hungarian, Emanuel Herrmann, in 1869, the idea of illustrated cards was taken up with most enthusiasm in Victorian Britain, joining Gothic a
24、rchitecture and landscape gardening as fields for which the country was famous.If the British postcard did disappear, we would lose forever something of great importance to the nation, said Chris Mottershead of Thomson Holidays, which did the survey. He wasbacked by Marie Angelou of Sussex Universit
25、y, who has investigated the importance of sending and receiving postcards. Postcards are nothing like phone calls, instant messages and direct photo shots via the mobile, she said. All these are useful, practical devices, but postcards offer something else, something additional that is not simply fu
26、nctional, but imaginative and personal. They can create the real atmosphere of your holiday in a way that nothing else can do.

The Information Technology Association of America projectsthat more than 800, 000 technology jobs will go unfilled next year. The lack of qualifie
32、d workers poses a huge threat to the U.
