Mr Richards has worked in a small seaside town for about ten years and he and his wife have a comfortable house near the sea. During the winter they would be quite happy, but every summer a lot of their relatives used to spend holiday in their house, and it was much cheaper than staying in hotel. Finally one day in June Mr Richards complained to a clever friend of his who lived in the same place. "One of my wife's cousins is going to bring her husband and children and spend ten days with us next month again. How have you prevented all your relatives from coming to live with you in summer？" "Oh," the friend answered, "that is not difficult. I just borrow money from all the rich ones, and lend it to all the poor ones. After that, they seldom come again." Hearing this Mr Richards smiled.

A.it was cool in summer
B.they might spend less money

ess Campaign.The World Centers of Compassion for ChildrenInternational call attention tochildren's rights and how to help the ____44____of war. Starting a Peacemakers'Club is apraiseworthy venture for a class and one that could spread to otherclassrooms and ideally affect the culture ofthe ____45____ school.
as the center of a person’s emotions.That is why the word “heart” is used in so many expressions about emotional situations.
One such expression is to “lose your heart” to someone.When that happens, you have fallen in love.But if the person who “won your heart” does not love you, then you are sure to have a “broken heart”.In your pain and sadness, you may decide that the person you love is “hard-hearted”, and in fact, has a “heart of stone”.
You may decide to “pour out your heart” to a friend.Telling someone about your personal problems can often make you feel better.
If your friend does not seem to understand how painful your broken heart is, you may ask her to “have a heart”.You are asking your friend to show some sympathy(同情) for your situation.Your friend “has her heart in the right place” if she says she is sorry, and shows great concern(关心)for how you feel.
Your friend may, however, warn you "not to wear your heart on your sleeve." In other words, do not let everyone see how lovesick you are. When your heart is on your sleeve you are showing your deepest emotions.
If your friend says, "my heart bleeds for you," she means the opposite. She is a cold-hearted person who does not really care about your situation.
In the ever-popular motion picture, The Wizard of Oz, the Tin Man seeks a heart. He wanted to feel the emotion of love, and was seeking help from the powerful Wizard of Oz to find a heart.
he cowardly lion, in the same movie, did have a heart. But he lacked courage and wanted to ask the Wizard of Oz to give him some. You could say that the cowardly lion was "chicken-hearted." That is another way of describing someone who is not very brave. A chicken is not noted for its bravery. Thus, someone who is chicken-hearted does not have much courage.
When you are frightened or concerned, your "heart is in your mouth." You might say, for example, that your heart was in your mouth when you asked a bank to lend you some money to pay for a new house.
If that bank says no to you, do not "lose heart." Be "strong-hearted." Sit down with the banker and have a "heart to heart" talk. Be open and honest about your situation. The bank may have a "change of heart." It may agree to lend you the money. Then you could stop worrying and "put your heart at rest."

"Tear'em apart!" "Kill the fool!" "Murder the referee(裁判)!"
These are common remarks one may hear at various sporting events. At the time they are made, they may seem innocent enough. But let's not kid ourselves. They have been known to influence behavior. in such a way as to lead to real bloodshed. Volumes have been written about the way words affect us. It has been shown that words having certain connotations(含义)may cause us to react in ways quite foreign to what we consider to be our usual humanistic behavior. I see the term "opponent" as one of those words. Perhaps the time has come to delete it from sports terms.
The dictionary meaning of the term "opponent" is "adversary"; "enemy"; "one who opposes your interests." Thus, when a player meets an opponent, he or she may tend to treat that opponent as an enemy. At such times, winning may dominate one's intellect, and every action, no matter how gross, may be considered justifiable. I recall an incident in a handball game when a referee refused a player's request for a time out for a glove change because he did not considered them wet enough. The player proceeded to rub his gloves across his wet T-shirt and then exclaimed, "Are they wet enough now？"
In the heat of battle, players have been observed to throw themselves across the court without considering the consequences that such a move might have on anyone in their way. I have also witnessed a player reacting to his opponent's intentional and illegal blocking by deliberately hitting him with the ball as hard as he could during the course of play. Off the court, they are good friends. Does that make any sense？ It certainly gives proof of a court attitude which departs from normal behavior.
Therefore, I believe it is time we elevated(提升)the game to the level where it belongs thereby setting an example to the rest of the sporting world. Replacing the term "opponent" with' "associate" could be an ideal way to start.
The dictionary meaning of the term "associate "is "colleague"; "friend"; "companion". Reflect a moment! You may soon see and possibly feel the difference in your reaction to the term "associate" rather than "opponent."
Which of the following statements best expresses the author's view？
A．Aggressive behavior. in sports can have serious consequences.
B．The words people use can influence their behavior.
C．Unpleasant words in sports are often used by foreign athletes.
D．Unfair judgments by referees will lead to violence on the sports field.
