2、u have a telephone in your own house, you will admit that it tends to ring when you are asleep, or in the middle of a meal or a conversation, or when you are just going out, or when you are taking your bath.

Let me put it another way: there are two things for which the English seem to show particular talent; one is mechanical invention, the other is literature. M

7、y own business happens to be with the use of words but I see I must now stop using them. For I have just been handed a slip of paper to say that somebody is waiting to speak to me on the telephone.

13、nd 1% the upper class.Interestingly, a surgeon earning $ 500，000 a year and a bus driver earning $ 50，000 a year both regard themselves as the middle class!Power refers to the amount of control a person has over other people.Obviously, people in positions of great power(such as governors) exercise(行

14、使) big power, but people who take orders from others have less power.Power and class do not always go hand in hand, however.For example, the governor of a state has great power, but he or she may not belong to a corresponding(相應(yīng)的) economic class.Generally, however, there is a relationship between po
