same
interests become different, the friendship may
disappear
（消失）
.
In
some
culture,
a
friendship
means
a
strong
helpful
feeling
between
two
persons.
The
friendship
is
developed
slowly
and
lasts
long.
However,
American people
think time is money. Studies show that one out of
five
American
families
moves
every
year.
American
friendships
develop
quickly,
and they may break up quickly, too.
Americans often chat easily with
strangers and people from the United
States may at first seem friendly
to
someone when they need his or her help, so an
American friendship is
not a true
one.
Learning how
Americans think of a friendship can stop people
from
other countries making mistakes.
It can also help them know how to make
friends with Americans.

Ye
Shiwen,
the
famous
Chinese
swimmer,
won
gold
medals
in
the
200-meter and 400-meter personal freely
swimming and broke the world
record in
the 400-meter game with the time of
4'28
Olympics.
As
Ye
set
an
Olympic
record,
winning
a
second
gold
in
the
200m
personal
freely
swimming
on
Tuesday
night,
it
was
said
that
in
her
winning
performance in
Saturday's 400m race, she swam the last 50m
quicker than
the men's
champion.
Two games, two
golds, and everybody wants to know if Ye Shiwen
has
taken
something
to
improve
her
performance.
She
faced
one
question
after
another
over
whether
she
has
taken
performance-enhancing
drugs.
At
a
press
conference after she
won, she said she agreed with Jiang Zhixue, who
earlier in the day told the reporter
that some people were biased
(
有
偏见
) against
Chinese swimmers. He said,
“We never
questioned Michael
Phelps
when he won eight gold medals in Beijing. I think
it is not right
to complain about
Chinese swimmers once they have good results. Some
people are just too
jealous.”
The
16-year-old
Chinese
swimmer
has
been
doubted,
but
the
strong-minded
girl
insisted
that
she
had
never
taken
performance-enhancing
drugs.
Ye
is
smaller
than
most
swimmers
at
her
level
but
has
never
failed
any
drug
test,
and
the
Olympic
organizers
spent
much
of the day
defending her, saying all the doubts
were “crazy
of
jealousy
Sports officials
and
fans
in
China
have
reacted
angrily
to
confusing suggestions by
a US swimming coach.
11. Ye
Shiwen is a(n) ________.
A. American runner

relay race
