30、ed and damned in a ceaseless barrage of wards ever since the end of World War .

36、, show free from perplexing care, from social envies and emulations, how loving and how united its members may be in the common interest of supporting the family, that I sympathize with the rich mans boy congratulate the poor mans boy; and it is for these reasons that from the ranks of the poor so m

37、any strong, eminent, self-reliant men have always sprung and always must spring. If you will read the list of the immortals who “were not born to die,“ you will find that most of them have been born to the precious heritage of poverty. It seems, nowadays, a matter of universal desire that poverty sh

38、ould be abolished. We should be quite willing to abolish luxury, but to abolish honest, industrious, self-denying poverty would be to destroy the soil upon which mankind produces the virtues which enable our race to reach a still higher civilization than it now possesses. 51 The author pities those

39、born in rich families because_. （ A） they do not know what they have missed （ B） they are attended by servants （ C） they do not have kind parents （ D） they are deprived of a more real happiness 52 To a poor child his father is_. （ A） the guardian angel （ B） someone to learn from （ C） a servant and a
