The Patagoniaby Henry JamesCHAPTER IThe houses were dark in the August night and the perspective ofBeacon Street, with its double chain of lamps, was a foreshorteneddesert. The club on the hill alone, from its semi-cylindrical front,projected a glow upon the dusky vagueness of the Common, and as Ipassed it I heard in the hot stillness the click of a pair ofbilliard-balls. As "every one" was out of town perhaps the servants,...

第一节 股票的概念与特征 随着经济体制改革的深化,我国股票市场也不断地发展与完善,参与股市投资的投资者日益增多,股市投资已成为一种人们愿意承担其风险的理财手段,而股票自然而然也成为了人人关心的热门话题。 股票到底是什么?股票是股份证书的简称,是股份公司为筹集资金而发行给股东作为持股凭证并借以取得股息和红利的一种有价证券。每股股票都代表股东对企业拥有一个基本单位的所有权。股票是股份公司资本的构成部分,可以转让、买卖或作价抵押,是资金市场的主要长期信用工具。 股票的作用有三点。(1)股票是一种出资证明,当一个自然人或法人向股份有限公司参股投资时,便可获得股票作为出资的凭证;(2)股票的持有者凭借股票来证明自己的股东身份,参加股份公司的股东大会,对股份公司的经营发表意见;(3)股票持有者凭借股票参加股份发行企业的利润分配,也就是通常所说的分红,以此获得一定的经济利益...
有人说过,在男人和女人之间,存在一场永恒的对话男人不可能100%地了解女人,女人也不可能100%地了解男人,这是永恒的真理!男女双方感情如何,不取决于对方是否完美,即使他们各自有很多缺点,却仍然可以和睦相处、一生幸福,这也是永恒的真理!如今,人人工作压力大。谁不渴望轻松和释放?谁不希望下班回家,享受伴侣带来的温馨和浪漫?工作越是辛苦,愿望就越是强烈。然而,男女两性之间,永远存在这样或那样的差异,永远存在这样或那样的误解。对此,没有必要回避,只应勇敢面对。只有这样,情感的纽带才会牢不可破。要接受伴侣和你的一切差异,不必瞠目结舌,也不要咬牙切齿,更不可横加干涉和破坏,甚至以武力施压。多一些宽容,多一些理解,这是你的责任。这并不意味着你非得哭丧着脸,承受一场危机四伏的感情。你也用不着硬着头皮,默默忍受缺乏激情的婚姻。你要做的,就是从消极走向积极,从挑剔走向包容,从误解走向理解。...
【三年K班 】 Good-byeinJuly 男生一向被认为面神经瘫痪了的脸上浮现出淡淡的笑,像极了早晨看到的从云层里一寸寸渗出来的阳光,“加油。” 1>> “三年K班?!!” 四个简单干脆的音符,毫无置疑的可能。 果然是一个噩耗。恰好用于回应两天前在庙里求到的下下签。当时的想法是“既然有下下签这种东西存在,就总有被人抽中的概率”,但现在看来,迷信有时不可不信。 如果测量的话,血压计的最上层水银面正顺着心中默念的字母表下滑,数到K,已经无可挽回地降下11个单位。 往年学校都只分十个班,摊到物、化、历、政四门选课就会有四个最差班,理科班又有可能稍强于文科班,于是,剩下的两个班总在竞争末名的比赛中获得平分秋色的成绩。...
