About fifty years ago Barbie Millicent Roberts first appeared in the world of toys. Since then, Barbie doll, as everyone called her, has become the most successful toy doll in history. Her parent, the Mattel Company, said that 90% of all American girls between 3 and 10 have at least one Barbie at home.
However, Barbie is facing some trouble at present(现在).There are many similar dolls on the market in competition with her. Another doll named Bratz, for example, came to life thirteen years ago. She looks more like today’s pop stars with heavy makeup(浓妆) and miniskirts. And her company offers more kinds of clothes too.
It seems that Barbie has lost her magic among older girls. “For younger girls, playing with a Barbie is much fun. But when you get older, you want something smarter and more modern,” says Vera Shepherd, a shop assistant in a New York toy store.
It is good news that on the international market, Barbie is still No.1.Although Mattel is selling fewer Barbies in the United States these years, sales in other countries are still going up. In January 2009, Mattel opened its first Barbie store in Shanghai, where girls can shop, eat, drink or even become fashion designers for their own Barbies.
Mattel is planning big celebrations for Barbie’s birthday. Fashion designers from all over the world have been called to make new dresses for Barbie. How long will Barbie stay popular in the world of toy dolls It is hard to say.

Like every successful person, Lang Lang went through years of hard and lonely practice before making his name. He began to take piano lessons at the age of three. With great talent, he won his first competition at the age of five. Lang’s father pushed little Lang very hard to succeed. When he was nine, Lang went to learn music in Beijing. His father even quit (离职) his job and moved to Beijing with his son.
Then came the difficult time.“I got fired (开除) by the piano teacher six months later. It totally destroyed my piano dream.”Lang recalled (回忆).Hearing about his son’s failure, Lang’s father was so angry that he told Lang to jump off a building! Of course Lang didn’t jump, and pressure (压力) soon changed into power. His big break came at the age of 17,when he won worldwide fame (名声) at “Gala of the Century”,a well-known concert in Chicago, U.S. Lang said it was his true love of music and piano that made him keep working.“When I was only two, I fell in love with the piano when I saw Tom—the cat playing it in the cartoon,”said Lang.“Today, playing classical (古典的) music on the piano is still the happiest thing in the world for me.”
