     Chemists have been studying why people cry. They say the body produces two kinds of tears. One kind cleans out
the eye if it gets dirt in it. But when people cry because of their feelings, these tears have poisonous chemicals in them. The body is getting rid of chemicals produced by strong feelings.
     In the United States men have heart diseases more often than women do. Doctors say heart diseases and some other diseases have something to do with the pressure. Perhaps men suffer more from these diseases because they do not
cry enough. And it is possible that as more and more women work outside their homes, they will also suffer from more
pressures. Then everyone will need to cry more.

     It is said that as the population of a city grows, so do its problems. Pollution, too many cars, and crowded
streets are just a few of these difficulties. One way to help with these problems is city trains. Trains traveling
to different parts of a city mean fewer cars and buses on our roads, cleaner air, and more open streets. In
recent years, cities such as Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Shanghai have all built city train lines. 　　
     The first city train line in China was built in Beijing. The oldest part of the train line, from Beijing Zhan to
Ping Guo Yuan was opened in 1969. Its length was 23.6 kilometres. As the city grew after 1980, so did the
need for more trains. A newer train line was built to help move people around the city centre. The 16-kilometre-
long "circle (環(huán)形) line" was finished in 1987. Since that time even more train stations have been built and today
the train lines in the city are over 50 kilometres long. 　　
     For the 2008 Olympic Games, the trains of Beijing will be very important. It is thought that most of the
people who go to watch the different sports during the Games will travel using trains.
