31、gn that said, “Laboratory : in this room the first five letters of the word were stressed not the last seven.” In other words, labor for her was more important than oratory, which means making speeches.She prepared her work very carefully and told us to do the same. We got lots of homework from her.
32、 Once she had broken her arm, and everybody in the class thought that maybe the homework load would be reduced, but it continued just the same.

38、e rope away through a certain distance is the winner. Many foreign sport experts think we dont have to be tall, heavy and strong to play tug-of-war.

Since lucky numbers are connected with something nice, people can remember them
45、very easily. So they have become advertisements for the shops.They like to use different telephone numbers in different places. The owners of bathhouses, for example, like to use 4626, because when it is read in Japanese, it has the same pronunciation as “have a good bath”. Both the clothes shops an
46、d the butchers s like to use 4129 better than any other number because this number can either be read as “good dress” or “good meat”.On the other hand, there are also telephone numbers which are regarded as forbidden by the Japanese people. 1567, for example, has the sound of “kill people”, while th
47、e number 4219 has that of “people die”. It is said that some persons had bad luck when they used telephone numbers like that, so all the people dont use them.At present, there are about forty-four million telephones in Japan, yet it is almost impossible for every one to get a lucky telephone number.
48、 So these numbers have become commodities and can be sold as goods. The price can reach as high as 222 thousand Japanese yean.69.

52、 people have different attitudes toward money. Some people think money is the source of happiness. In their opinion, everything in the world can be bought with money. Only when you have enough money can you taste delicious food, buy luxurious cars and magnificent houses. Therefore , they think money
53、 is the basis of happiness. However, others think that money is the root of all evils. Owing to the keen hunger for money, people do illegal things and even hurt others. For example, some people fight against each other for money, some kill others for money. All these evils are under the control of money.In my opinion, money can bring us misery as well as happiness. Only when your money is made through your honest efforts, can you lead a decent life. If we use money to help the poor and homeless, we will enjoy the true happiness.10 / 10
