32、 The snake bit the farmers wife. The farmer rushed her to the hospital. She returned home with a fever. Now everyone knows you treat a fever with fresh chicken soup, so the farmer took his hatchet (短柄斧) to the farmyard for the soups main ingredient (原料). His wifes sickness continued so that friends
33、and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock. To feed them the farmer killed the pig. The farmers wife did not get well. She died, and so many people came for her funeral (葬礼) that the farmer had the cow killed to provide meat for all of them to eat. So the next time you hear that someone is

The word “mother” has been voted the most beautiful word in the English language. But “father” failed even to make it on the list of th
38、e 70 best words in a survey of thousands of non-English speakers across the world. From Ankara to Zurich, “mother” was voted above “love”, “smile” and “blossom”. In second place was “passion”, followed by “smile”, “love” and “eternity”, with “fantastic”, “destiny”, “freedom”, “liberty” and “tranquil
39、ity” completing the top 10. The results were given by the British Council (英国文化协会)which carried out a huge survey of more than 40,000 people in 102 non-English speaking countries. The study was done to celebrate the groups 70th anniversary and it threw up a few surprising words to the list. “Its int
40、eresting that mother, the only word of the 70 that describes a direct relationship between people, came top of the poll (投票)”,said British Council spokesman Greg Selby. “It is great to see words in the survey that are so positive and suggestive of the British Council s purpose - words such as freedo
41、m, liberty, peace.” Those surveyed were allowed to choose their words on either meaning or sound, said Mr. Selby. This explained why words that are satisfying to pronounce, like “flip-flop”, made the list. Famous mothers like Kate Winslet, Elle Macpherson and Claudia Schiffer have all done their bit
42、 to make the word popular. Kate, 28, even stopped shooting Woody Allens new film to spend more time with her young family.

A survey on the word-“mother”K#S5UCOne day, Mr. Arnold was teaching a lesson, and things were going as normally as ever. He was explaining the story of human being to his pupils.

48、 men were nomads (游牧); they never stayed in the same place for very long. Instead, they would travel about, here and there, in search of food, wherever it was to be found. And when the food ran out, they would move off somewhere else. K#S5UHe taught them about the invention of farming and keeping an
49、imals. This was an important discovery, because by learning to cultivate (耕作) the land, and care for animals, mankind would always have food steadily. It also meant that people could remain living in one place, and this made it easier to set about tasks that would take a long while to finish, like b
50、uilding towns, cities, and all that were in them.

54、ing a green T-shirt, with a message that said “I am not a nomad!”And, from then on, they set about showing that indeed they were not. Every time they knew they needed something, they made sure that they would get it using care and control. If they needed wood or paper, they would make sure that they
55、 got the recycled kind. They ordered their fish from fish farms, making sure that the fish they received were not too young and too small. They only used animals that were well cared for, and brought up on farms.And so, from their little town, those children managed to give up being nomads again, ju
