19、ould flan either at the front or the back of the classroom and work toward the other end.Since I was scared near the middle of about 35 students, it was easy to figure out which questions I might have to answer. This particular time. I had completed my usual two or three problems according to my cal

20、culations.What I failed to expect was that several students were absent, which threw off my estimate. As Mrs. Totters made her way from the beginning of the class. I desperately tried to determine which math problem I would get. I tried to work it out before she got to me, but I had brain freeze and

21、 couldnt function.When Mrs. Totten reached my desk, she asked what answer Id got for problem No. 14.

26、xamine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area Not all historical buildings am attractive. However, them may be other reasons - for example. economic reasons - why they should be preserved. So. let us assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to t

27、he majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed?In my view. new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own hometown of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings.

28、 As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate (影响) its surroundings too much, it often improves the attractiveness of the area.It is true that then arc examples of new buildings which have spoilt (破坏) the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too.

29、Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas.

I believe that it is the duly of the architect and planner to mo

34、iving in caves.D. To admit how new buildings have mined their surroundings.DPerhaps you think you could easily add to your happiness with mote money. Strange as it may stem, if youre unsatisfied. the issue is out a lack of means to meet your desires but a lack of desires - not that you cannot satisf

35、y your tastes but that you dont have enough tastes.Real riches consist of well-developed and hearty capacities (1E)J) to enjoy life. Mom people are already swamped ( 淹没) with things. They eat, wear, go and talk too much. They live in too big a house with too many moms, yet their house of life is a h
