Black Friday this year saw the biggest gun cache(贮存)ever purchased in one day.Considering those trends,theres a heated debate

16、about whether the new Texas law is a model piece of legislation(立法)for a changing America,or a walking disaster just begging for trouble.

Whats not yet known is how the rest of Texas will respond.”可以肯定的是，新年对德州的枪支拥有者来说将是令人兴奋的一天。目前尚不清楚德州其他地区将如何回应。”作者对待新法律是小心，谨慎的。故选B。3My two sons

72、t is significant to have the ability to explain things simply so simple, in fact, that you could explain it to an eight-year-old. Einstein agrees. He once said, “If you cantexplain it simply, you dont understand it well enough.”For thousands of years, people have known that the best way to understan

73、d a concept is to explain it to someone else. “While we teach, we learn,” said the Roman philosopher Seneca.Learners keep a greater percentage of what they learn when they explain or teach the concept tosomeone else, or use it immediately.

83、el instead of just saying what the other person did wrong. If you can say to a friend, “I got my feelings hurt.” rather than “You hurt my feelings.” you are going to be able to solve the problem much faster.In dealing with many challenges that friendship will bring to you, try to see them for what t

84、hey are: small hurdles (栏杆) you need to jump or get through on your way through life. Nothing is so big that it is impossible to get over, and hurt only serves to make us stronger.
