After reading

23、 an article entitled Cigarette Smoking and Your Health, I lit a cigarette to calm my nerves. I smoked with concentration and pleasure as I was sure that this would be my last cigarette. For a whole week I did not smoke at all and during this time, my wife suffered terribly. I had all the usual sympt

24、oms of someone giving up smoking: a bad temper and an enormous appetite. My friends kept on offering me cigarettes and cigars. They made no effort to hide their amusement whenever I produced a packet of sweets from my pocket. After seven days of this I went to a party. Everybody around me was smokin

25、g and I felt extremely uncomfortable. When my old friend Brian urged me to accept a cigarette, it was more than I could bear. I took one guiltily, lit it and smoked with satisfaction.

Another

29、group of surnames describes what the first person to bear the name looked like, or comments on some aspects of his personality. Brown is a typical example of such a name, indicating a man who had brown hair. In the Middle Ages, when surnames were becoming hereditary (世袭的 ), most Englishmen probably

30、had fair hair, so the man with brown hair was unusual. Similar surnames are Grey, for someone whose hair was that color, and Read or Reed, for a red-head. A man who was noted for his great strength might be known simply as Strong. He could also be called Turnbull because of his ability to take a bul

31、l by the horns and roll it over. If he was both strong and courageous, then he might earn the right to be called Hardy. Names which are comments on someones behavior include Wild and Savage. More complimentary are names like Goodfellow, for a popular man, and Jolly, for someone who laughed a great d

32、eal. The modern form of a surname may be rather misleading, having changed its spelling or its meaning. A man called Blackbird, for instance, had an ancestor with a black beard.

But if you try to make a film by setting up a camera in front of the stage, you will find it wont work. A film made in this way will leave the audience cold. And even worse

36、youll be wasting a powerful tool the camera. A stage is actually a box. One side of the box has been removed so the audience can see whats going on inside. The actors remain at a fixed audience. In the film, however, the camera can bring the audience up close and fix their attention on small but imp

37、ortant things: a frightened look, a whisper, a trembling of hands. The camera offers the film maker freedom allowing him to move easily across barriers (界 限 ) of time and space.

47、bunch of flowers. And usually, red rose is a sign of love. Usually we nod to express our agreement and shake our heads to show disapproval.
