In the early 16th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing of
91、f dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in
92、 a friendly way. Henry , King of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should not go out. Though the belief in the merit (好处) of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice n

Yet, it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War . Advertisements repeatedly sell the
94、idea: clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far? Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread o

And the latter (后者) position is gaining some grounds. _【参考范文】People have mixed opinions towards dirt on our skin. (要点1) For a long time in the histor

People have been told that washing dirt off our body can keep us healthy. (要点 3) However, some scientists bel

From inside the store, Id begun to see the people rushing by outsid
98、e. Then an elderly woman caught my eye. Although slow and unsure of step, she moved with deliberation (从容), and there was no hesitation in her gestures. The elderly woman had come into the store along with a younger woman who I guessed was her daughter. The daughter was clearly impatient, rolling he
99、r eyes, huffing and sighing(长吁短叹), checking her watch every few seconds. The older woman then separated from the younger one and began to tick through the DVDs on the nearest shelf, obviously expecting someone else to help. After the slightest hesitation, I walked over and asked if I could help her
100、find something. The woman smiled at me and showed me a title scrawled (乱涂乱画的) on a piece of paper. It was a bit unclear to make out. Clearly a person looking for it knew a little about movies, about quality. Rather than rushing off to locate the DVD for the woman, I asked her to walk with me so I co
101、uld show her where she could find it. Looking back, I think I wanted to enjoy her company for a moment. Something about her deliberate movements reminded me of my own mother, whod passed away the previous Christmas. As we walked along the back of the store, I introduced her to the different sections
102、: old television shows, action movies, cartoons, science fiction. The woman seemed glad of the unrushed company and casual conversation. We found the movie, and I complimented her on her choice. She smiled and told me it was one shed enjoyed when she was her daughters age and that she hoped she woul
103、d enjoy it as much as she had. Maybe, she said with a hint of wistfulness(一丝渴望), her daughter could enjoy it with her own young children. Then, when the older womans turn in line came, she paid in cash, counting out the dollars and coins with the same sureness shed displayed earlier. As the cashier

105、was none of my business. But she rolled her eyes and said, “Yeah. ” I smiled to show her I wasnt criticizing. “Cherish her, ” I said. And then I answered her curious expression by saying, “When shes gone, its the little moments like this thatll come back to you. ” It was true. I missed my mother sti
106、ll and remembered the moments when I was so impatient as to make her life miserable. The elderly woman moved with her deliberate slowness back to her daughter. Together they made their way towards the exit of the video store. They stood there for a moment, side by side, waiting for the rushing holiday current and for their place in it.
