19、n was still a dream of the distant future. Indeed, they could have landed on 90 percent of the earth as recently as two or three hundred years ago, and we could never have heard of it.

20、 be interpreted as visits from outer space. A stimulating writer, Charles Fort, has made a collection of UFO sighting in his book!

26、fied. Thats why we were defeated nine out of ten games. Our spirits, however, had never dampened, for we were a cheerful team. None would strive to get into the spotlight when we were gaining the upper hand; nor would we blame each other when we were losing. Thus a cordial relationship between membe

27、rs prevailed in our team. Most recommendable of all was our morale which never lowered. Our sportsmanship also remained good. We persisted in carrying on to the last when suffering great loss. We knew we had done our best, showing no regret at failure. To the rest of the students our team was a good

28、 one though it lost the game. They kept encouraging us and none of them was disappointed.Recently I have avoided watching games, not even at a TV live coverage, still less to the match in person.

30、tion. It seemed to me that wins and losses were relative and transient. What mattered was the ever-higher level achieved through contest.

43、 to a different species. On the surface, the comments made by men about womens abilities seem light-heartiness does not conceal the real contempt (轻视) that men feel for women.

44、ar fewer accidents than men. They are too careful and responsible to drive like menaces. But this is a minor quibble (双关语). Women have succeeded in any job you care to name.
