After he was put on disability for a bad back, he bought a small farm in the country, just enough to grow food for the family. He planted vegetabl
11、es, fruit trees and even kept bees for honey.And every week he cleaned Old Man McColgins chicken house in exchange for manure(肥料).The smell really burned the inside of your nose. When we complained about the terrible smell, Dad said the stronger the manure, the healthier the crops, and he was right.
12、 For example, just one of his cantaloupes filled the entire house with its sweet smell, and the taste was even sweeter.As the vegetables started coming in, Dad threw himself into cooking. One day, armed with a basket of vegetables, he announced he was going to make stew(炖菜).Dad pulled out a pressure
13、 cooker and filled it up with cabbages, eggplants, potatoes, corns, onions and carrots. For about half an hour, the pressure built and the vegetables cooked. Finally, Dad turned off the stove, the pot began to cool and the pressure 3relief valve(阀门) sprayed out a cloud of steam. If we thought Dads p
14、ile of chicken manure was bad, this was 10 times worse. When Dad took off the lid, the smell nearly knocked us out.Dad carried the pot out and we opened doors and windows to air out the house. Just how bad was it? The neighbors came out of their houses to see if we had a gas leak!Determined, Dad fil
15、led our plates with steaming stew and passed them around. It didnt look that bad, and after the first wave had shut down my ability to smell, it didnt offend the nose so much, either.

18、experienced cook. C. He is a troublesome father. D. He suffers a lot from his disabilityBIt used to be a matter of fact when Peter Pan-a character from James Matthew Barries 1911 book-said: “All children, except one, grow up.” But this “fact” doesnt seem to apply to todays world anymore.According to
19、 the NPD Group, a US market research company, sales of toys to adults in the UK increased by more than 20 percent in 2016, three times the pace of the childrens toy market itself. These toys varied from puzzles and Lego building sets to vehicle models and action figures. And more than half of the sa

21、vation of these grown-ups is to escape the stress of todays fast-paced world. They are driven toward the more immediate pleasures brought by toys than those brought by, say, getting a promotion, which is far less easy to achieve.“It reminds me of the playful side of life,” Rob Wilmer, a 25-year-old
22、PhD 4student in the UK, told The Telegraph when talking about his love for Lego, which he said brings him both comfort and pleasure.Despite this, some social scientists see the trend as disturbing. To Frank Furendi, a professor at the University of Kent in the UK, the fact that so many adults are se
23、eking “the excitement of youth” is the evidence that “adulthood has got nothing attractive about it anymore”, he told The New York Times. “Thats actually quite sad.”But scientists are probably just worrying too much. According to Canadian comic book artist Todd McFarlane, collecting toys could simpl
24、y be a way for people to express their individuality. “Its just pop culture stuff. Its stuff that says, I like a little of this and I like a little of that,” he told ABC News. “Its no big deal.”So now that over 100 years have passed since Peter Pan, perhaps its time to introduce a new “fact”, as sta

29、al media data.The House of Commons Science and Technology Committees report, released last week, has blamed firms for making people sign up to long incomprehensible legal contracts(合同) and calls for an international standard or Kitemark (认证标记) to identify sites 5that have clear terms and conditions.

Instead, he says, firms should provide a plain-English version of their terms. The simplified version would be checked by a third party and awarde
31、d a Kitemark if it is an accurate reflection of the original.It is not yet clear who would administer(监管) the scheme(计划), but the UK government is looking at introducing it on a voluntary basis. “We need to think through how we make that work in practice,” says Miller.Would we pay any more attention
32、 to a Kitemark? “I think if you went and did the survey, people would like to think they would,” says Nigel Shadbolt at the University of Southampton, UK, who studies open data. “We do know people worry a lot about the inappropriate use of their information, but what would happen in practice is anot

If properly administered, a Kitemark on terms and conditions
