Ask someone from St. Louis where the nearest sandwich shop is, and he or she will politely give you directions. A New Yorker might eye you at first and after deciding it is safe t

17、o talk to you, might give you a rather unexpected explanation. A person from Georgia might be very kind about directing you and even suggest some different places to eat.

23、day present. For the first time in my life I had a good ideaI would buy him a bottle of champagne. Before the party began, Tom suggested that I should open the bottle. I put it between my knees and began to pull, but it remained firmly corked. Soon a crowd gathered round to watch the fight between m

24、e and the bottle. I could hear all sorts of“ helpful“ suggestions from the guests like “Break the top off“, “Use your teeth!“ etc. But I was losing the bottle.

29、finite effect on our mental abilities.He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than is summer heat.
