task of my education. 58/14/5
I should want to see the people whose kindness and gentleness and companionship have made my life worth living. 58/14/1 I shouted and sent him back to the Barts' front lawn, but I could feel a rising fear. 40/20/5
I speak,of course,of free men who have a choice,not condemned criminals whose sphere of activities is strictly delimited. 58/1/3 I staggered off the road into a clump of underbrush and dropped like a sack of bricks. 41/14/2 I stood in the cold rain near Oklahoma City, trying to thumb a ride home for the weekend. 56/1/1 I stood up and walked home. 41/7/1
I suppose that would depend upon what you mean. 35/3/4
I tell her about my trials at work and brag about the kids and Peggy.

I was no more than halfway up the block when I sensed that I had an audience. 41/10/1 I was still resting there ten minutes later when I heard children's voices. 41/15 I waved. Most likely, they were admiring my brisk pace. 41/10/3 I went a bit further every time. 41/8/2

I will not be cold and indifferent to my poor friends, and I will shoe concern for them, even if it is only a comforting word. 3/5/2
I wish to preach not the doctrine of ignoble ease but the doctrine of the strenuous life; the life of toil and effort; of labor and strife; to preach that highest form of success which comes not to the man who desires mere easy peace but to the man who does not shrink from danger, from hardship, of from bitter toil, and who out of these wins the splendid ultimate triumph. 23/1/2 I wouldn't mark up a painting or a statue.

If any one would make me the greatest king that ever lived, with palaces and gardens and fine dinners, and wines and coaches, and beautiful clothes, and hundreds of servants, on condition that I should not read books, I would not be a king; I would rather be a poor man in a garret with plenty of books than a king who did not love reading.\" 13/4/3 If asked to define it,however,we'd probably respond with something like \"Well,it's-uh-well,you know-electricity.\" 33/1/2

If China saves less-and if, as officials have announced, it pursues a more diversified policy of investing its reserves-who will finance the US trade deficit of more than US$2 billion a day? 52/8/2 If each of them learns to go all out for his team and not for himself on the sports field, he will later find it natural to work for the good of society and for the good of his country. 5/4/4 If he was interested in going to Clinton, he was certainly taking an odd way. 56/8/4
If I can get so much pleasure from mere touch, how much beauty must be revealed by sight. 58/10/2
If I were the president of a university I should establish a compulsory course in “How to Use Your Eyes”. 58/11/1

If someone maintains that two and two are five, or that Iceland is on the equator, you feel pity rather than anger, unless you know so little of arithmetic or geography that his opinion shakes your own contrary conviction. 37/3/4
If successful-and, so far, China has almost always surpassed even its own high expectations-these adjustments may impose enormous strains on a global economic system that is already unbalanced by the US’ huge fiscal and trade deficits. 52/8/1
If Tehran believes that a U.S. or Israeli air strike against one of its nuclear facilities is likely, it might well stage military maneuvers in the Persian Gulf to remind the world that it can obstruct the flow of 20 percent of the planet's oil supply at the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz. 49/10/2
If that were true, he asked provocatively, \"What place, then, for a creator?\" 51/8/5
If the Bush administration decides it cannot use the UN process to compel Iran to back down, it will probably look for other levers of political and economic coercion, including attempts to recruit a \"coalition of the willing\" that is prepared to temporarily cut energy and other commercial ties with Tehran. 49/14/1
If the hive were flown to New York between feedings,which time would the bees follow-Paris' or New York's? 47/2/5 If the latter cannot be sold as, say, heavy fuel oil, they accumulate until refinery storage facilities are full.

If the people and the newspaper seem mad, perverse, and wicked, remind yourself that you seem so to them. 37/4/5

If the same decision-making pattern is prevalent outside the United States, sales promotion should prove to be just as indispensable. 45/6/5 If the service is good, add another 10% to the bill, up to HK$100 in an especially nice restaurant. 38/4/3 If the service is superb, tack on an extra 1,000 or so. 38/5/4
If the two sides can't agree on who would be punishing whom by playing the oil card, the likelihood of diplomatic resolution may be even more remote than is commonly accepted. 49/3 If there is reason to believe that a bill is not real, there are other signs to us, though. 27/9/2

If we stand idly by, if we seek merely swollen, slothful ease, and ignoble peace, if we shrink from the hard contests where men must win at hazard of their lives and at the risk of all they hold dear, then the bolder and stronger peoples will pass us by and will win for themselves the domination of the world. 23/3/3 If we study day after day, there is nothing that cannot be achieved. 2/4/3
If we wrote down the names of all the things people have invented since the beginning of the world, we would have a very long list. 59/1/1

Now we are engaged [Passive voice: \"are engaged.\" Consider using active.See \"Help\" key for more information.] in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. 17/6/1 Now you see how some suits of playing cards have more value or power than others. 11/5/1 Occasionally, however, there are inventions which change the way we live. 59/2/1
Occasionally, if I am very fortunate, I place my hand gently in a small tree and feel the happy quiver of a bird in full song. 58/9/7
Of course not. I'd no more scribble all over a first edition of \"Paradise Lost\" than I'd give my baby a set of crayons and an original Rembrandt! 46/7/2 Of course, I'd stop a few times along the route to rest. 41/8/4 Of course, public speaking is also different from conversation. 21/3/1 Of course, the blade has been made much shorter on the card. 11/3/4
Of course, to stay in school is not enough and they will learn something worth the time and effort. 43/5/2 Of course, were Iran to completely cut off its oil supply, it would badly damage its own economy. 49/6/1
Of course,it didn't make money all the time.For example,around 1975 the company paid a claim of £190,000. 35/7/5 Of course,we don't get it for nothing;we make payments to the companies. 35/1/4

One said there would certainly be water on the moon. Many felt there was a chance that the astronauts could bring back to earth some strange infection. 14/3/4 One thing is certain: a substantial reduction in Iran's energy output would have a significant impact on global oil prices. 49/4/1 One was of medium height, sturdily built and strong as an ox. 34/1/2 One way is to put that extra thinking time to work-on the subject. 57/10/2

People all over the world search for happiness in a loving relationship. 6/5/5
People have always sought knowledge, of course, but in Western Europe at that time, men like Galileo, Newton and Descartes began to search systematically for ways to understand and control their environment. 50/2/1 People in Gentryville saw him move a chicken house alone and they swore it weighed 600 pounds. 34/7/3 People in those cities work in meat-packing plants, flour mills, dairies and refineries. 22/5/5
People must have a reasonable income in order to save amounts that will make for wealth, which requires several auxiliary rules for achieving an income level that will allow for a minimum saving level. 43/3/2
People save partly because of weaknesses in government social-insurance programs; strengthening social security (pensions) and public health and education will simultaneously reduce social inequalities, increase citizens’ sense of well-being, and promote current consumption. 52/7/3
People used to think that when there was an earthquake, the ground opened, swallowed great numbers of people, and then closed, leaving no trace of those who perished. 24/9/2 People who prefer to eat at a table in the restaurant also receive their food in cardboard or plastic containers, and the knives, forks and spoons are plastic, too. 18/5/6 People who tend to focus on accuracy may find that they worry too much about making mistakes. 26/3/2

Persecution is used in theology, not in arithmetic, because in arithmetic there is knowledge, but in theology there is only opinion. 37/3/6 Personality Listening: You become so concerned with the way the speaker looks or how he talks that what he says fails to penetrate. 57/17/1
Petrochemicals are generally chemical compounds derived from petroleum either by direct manufacture or by indirect manufacture as by-products from the variety of processes that are used during the refining of petroleum. /6/1 Petrol has a low boiling point; if a little is poured into the hand, it soon vaporizes. 36/6/4 Petroleum Geology and Other Sciences 40/

Still, it is the man, more than the science, who dominates this book, with his triumph over a terrible affliction, his courage, his humor and his admirable lack of self-pity. 51/11/1 Still, one thing is clear: speaking a language well needs both fluency and accuracy. 26/5/2
Still, some bioethanol is already creeping into usage here, not as a separate fuel with a pump of its own, but as a blend that is mixed with petrol in a ratio of about 1 in 20, for use in ordinary cars. 53/13/2 Stop!\" I heard somebody yell. \"Drop your gun!\" 56/27

Such \"sun ship\" might travel at over one hundred kilometers an hour. 16/5/9
Such \"sun ship\" would have a large enough surface area to carry the enormous number of solar cells necessary to move any appreciable load. 16/5/8 Such a station is also able to play a unique role in interrogating earth satellites in orbit over both poles. 55/15/3
Such a system, now under development, will shunt data a thousand times faster than current \"high speed\" broadband Internet links. 20/8/2
Such a threat was recently made by Interior Minister Mostafa Pourmohammade and, it followed through, could interrupt the global supply chain and trigger a sharp and immediate spike in oil prices. 49/10/3 Such allegedly pro-growth policies would not only fail to deliver growth; they would threaten the entire vision of China’s future. 52/14/1 Such an attitude would emphasize sharply the values of life. 58/3/2
Such satellites-maintaining their steady sweeps as the earth revolves beneath them-cover all parts of the globe and hence are ideal for weather observation, communications and other tasks. 55/16/1 Such stories set us thinking, wondering what we should do under similar circumstances. 58/2/1 Suddenly I heard a siren behind us. 56/20/1 Suddenly we were in the clear open sky. 10/9/3

That is easier said than done, and we do not necessarily recommend that all people should lead a pure and joyless life. 43/2/2 That is foolish. Such a fear would keep us from mountains the rest of our lives. 24/10/3 That is why many after-shocks follow a major earthquake. 24/7/5
That is, to pursue a scientific outlook on development that makes economic and social development people-oriented, comprehensive, balanced and sustainable. 60/6/2 That marked book is usually the thought-through book.

That Saturday afternoon in the village of New Salem, in Sangamon Country, Illinois in the year 1831, every man, and boy in town was at the circle that formed to watch the unknown Lincoln wrestle. 34/3/1 That seems slow to us today, but 200 years ago it was a remarkable speed. 59/6/4
Thousands of people watched the event, and most realized immediately how important it was. 59/7/1 That touched off the fireworks. 34/5/5
That was a giant wall. It had to be so big that no horseman could jump over it or ride around it. 32/7/2 That was a mistake. 41/9/2
That was about fifteen minutes before he picked me up. 56/31/4 That was Judith, who killed an enemy general. 11/8/3 That was the way I wanted to go. 56/13/2
That wasn't the first thing he'd said that didn't make full sense to me. 56/19/1

The debate about which is more important-fluency or accuracy-in the English language has lasted for a long time. 26/5/1 The definition also fails to do justice to the significance of industrial purchases. 31/2/5 The Delight of Books 13/
The Department of Energy inherited about forty regional and field offices, university programs, and laboratories from the predecessor agencies. 29/8/1 The Department of Energy thus kept intact the network of national laboratories as a valuable national resource. 29/8/6 The Department was officially activated on October 1, 1977. 29/1/5
The Department, despite its diverse origins, was structured to allow for the continuity of programs and functions from predecessor organizations while blending their expertise into new management teams. 29/4/1
The Department's first Secretary contended that, historically, the problem with new departments had been that they pulled together existing agencies under the same roof without integrating the activities of those agencies. 29/2/2 The Department's second administration, the Energy Information Administration, consolidated the Federal Government's many diverse energy data systems. 29/7/1 The depthmen will measure cosmic ray penetration of the sea, radioactivity, and the age of the water in the abyss. 48/12/1 The design of thin lines is so complicated that it's almost impossible to match them. 27/10/3 The Diamond design is one that you probably know already. 11/4/2 The diamonds and Club designs also have interesting stories. 11/4/1
The diffusion of knowledge is the dominant trend of our time and goes well beyond the purely scientific. 50/5/1
The distinct cultural tradition of the Chinese nation that developed in the long course of history has exerted a strong influence on contemporary China, just as it did on ancient China. 60/8/2 The drill may just miss the oil although it is near; on the other hand, it may strike oil at a fairly high level. 36/5/2 The earth revealed a slab of black rock which was actually a huge deposit of almost pure graphite. 42/10/2 The earth's crust is formed of many different layers of rocks. 24/6/4 The Earth's Learning Curve 50/

China recognizes, too, that what separates less developed from more developed countries is not only a gap in resources, but also a gap in knowledge. 52/6/1

The high sounds are produced when the air is prevented by the holes from going through,while the low sounds are produced by allowing more of the air to pass.All this is what produces the differences between high and low sounds. 15/9/2 The House and Senate held subcommittee hearings, but the proposal received no further attention during 1973. 28/2/2 The idea of a reward for services like this is quite an old one. 35/4/6

The network, which will cover the United States and reach into Canada and Mexico, is beginning to track the interaction of the two great crustal plates that respectively carry the Pacific Ocean and the continent. 20/6/1 The new administration would combine the energy research and development activities of the Atomic Energy Commission and the Department of the Interior. 28/2/7
The new Department of Energy did not simply organize existing agencies and offices under new leadership but reshaped many programs and functions to fit the national energy policy of the Carter Administration. 29/3/1
The new Energy Policy Office established on June 29, 1973, under the leadership of Governor John A. Love of Colorado, with DiBona remaining at the White House as Love's deputy, was responsible for formulating and coordinating energy policies at the presidential level. 28/2/5
The next day came an envelope with the royal seal. 25/4/3
The next day Carter named Schlesinger as the first Secretary of Energy. 29/1/4
The next instant, the whole parade was tearing back down Willow Road. And I was bringing up the rear. 41/24/6
The next largest group of Americans trace their ancestry to Africa, black people now constitute over 11 percent of the population. 39/7/3 The next time he spoke we were going toward Chickasha. 56/18/1
The next time you do a card trick-remember this. You’re playing with history. 11/1/1
The next time you use English, try to work on those problems you have identified. 26/7/5
The ocean is the place where we should be putting our efforts in order to provide for future generations.'' 48/1/2
The only way I know of dealing with this general human conceit is to remind ourselves that man is a brief episode in the life of a small planet in a little comer of the universe, and that for aught we know, other parts of the cosmos may contain beings as superior to ourselves as we are to jelly-fish. 37/6/9
The ordinary school cannot give much practical training in living, because most of the students’ time is spent in classes, studying lessons. So what the students do in their spare time is of great importance. 5/4/3
The other man towered over him, six feet and four inches tall and slender, his long arms dangling from his shoulders. 34/1/5
The overall effect of these modifications is the production of materials that either afford good-grade aromatic cokes comparatively easily or the formation of products bearing functional groups that may be employed as a nonfuel material. /9/6
The pact arranging this is even being viewed as a model applicable to the moon and other celestial bodies. 55/1/3 The panorama of color and action fill the world is taken for granted. 58/10/4
The paper in a dollar bill may not be worth a full dollar. Well, you might ask, how is it worth anything? 27/6/3 The pattern of thin lines is made by a very special machine. 27/10/2
The petrochemical industry has grown with the petroleum industry and is considered by some to be a mature industry. /3/1
The petroleum era was ushered in by the 1859 finding at Titusville, Pennsylvania, but the flourishing of chemicals from petroleum has been only since the early twentieth century. /1/1 The playing cards we use today are much like those used for hundreds of years. 11/1/2 The poor guy didn't have a \"Help\" key to push. 17/10/2
The popularity of sales promotion has grown steadily both in the United States and overseas. 45/6/1 The population is shifting ever westward. 39/9/3
The porter brings your bags to your room and helpfully explains how to access CNN. 38/1/2
The problem facing most inventors was finding a good source of electricity to make the telegraph work. 59/14/3 The problem is that many students find that if they try to speak fast, they make more mistakes. 26/2/1 The process is called combustion or oxidation,and the heat itself is a form of energy. 33/13/3
The processing of petroleum hydrocarbon to yield materials that are, essentially, the building blocks of other chemicals industries, is now very extensive. /5 The professor would try to show his pupils how they could add joy to their lives by really seeing what passes unnoticed before them. 58/11/2 The Province of Alberta 22/
The province was named after Princess Louis Caroline Alberta, a daughter of Queen Victoria of England. It became a province of Canada in 1905. 22/2/3 The people of Alberta originally came from many different countries. 22/3/1
The provincial capital Edmonton, with a population of about 1,016,000, is the second largest city in the province. 22/5/1 The question is inherently insoluble, but self-esteem conceals this from most people. 37/6/5 The raids of the savage horsemen were sudden-and they were terrible. 32/6/4
The rain was coming down good and strong now and he was trying to see over the steering wheel. 56/18/2
The reason why a great conductor makes notations on his musical scores-marks them up again and again each time he returns to study them-is the reason why you should mark your books. 46/8/5 The recent discovery of an eel larva many times the size of the common one may furnish a basis for stories of sea serpents. 48/13/1 The recognition of global inequalities is more marked today than ever before, and this learning is forcing action. 50/7/3
The reduced crude may then be processed by vacuum or steam distillation to separate the high-boiling lubricating oil fractions without the danger of decomposition, which occurs at high (>350℃, 660℉) temperatures. 44/8/1 The Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation will come into operation in 2008. 53/16/1
The rest falls to the invertebrates: pulsing jelly fish, darting shrimp, fixed colonies5 of coral polyps, and crawlers and diggers of the floor. 48/7/3 The rise of these machines drove the Industrial Revolution, and created a whole new system of life. 50/2/6 The rocks in which oil is found are of marine origin too. 36/2/9
The roof of your home is probably made waterproof by an oil product,bitumen. 16/1/3 The route was getting a little too roundabout for me. 56/10/1 The rules for acquiring substantial wealth are few, simple. 43/1/3
the Russians are reported to be carrying in live herring to be dumped overboard in an attempt at sea \"farming.\" 55/11/4
The same is true to still a larger degree of such animals as frogs and fishes,although in the frog we can at least see an eardrum. 15/4/2 The same lethargy, I am afraid, characterizes the use of our faculties and senses. 58/6/1 The same product is used for the road surface outside your home. 16/1/4
The samples of soil from various depths are examined for traces of oil. 36/5/4
The scientific revolution, followed by the Enlightenment, marked a fundamental shift. 50/2/2 The sea is the realm of inner space. It is our last frontier. 48/19/
The second auxiliary rule for becoming rich is to pick your education carefully. 43/6/1
The second has a great many books-a few of them read through, most Of them dipped into, but all of them as clean and shiny as the day they were bought. (This person would probably like to make books his own, but is restrained by a false respect for their physical appearance.) 46/6/3 The serial numbers are a third giveaway. 27/9/4
The shift in emphasis from the use of macrofossils to microfossils for zonation, caused by oil exploration, has already been noted. 40/6/2 The simple arithmetic looks compelling. 53/5/1
The South African State Oil Company(SOEKOR) is under a statutory obligation imposed by its government to put to the test every claim to an oil-finding method, be it a dowsing or some sophisticated scientific technique. 40/8/3 The South Pole would be the check point on each circuit, snatching the data from space, processing them in computers within seconds and relaying them to the rest of the world. 55/16/2 The space between was then filled with earth and paved with bricks. 32/9/5
The sparsely settled, far-northern state of Alaska is the largest of America's 50 states (in many countries they would be called provinces). 39/2/1 The speaker is the person who initiates a speech transaction. 21/5/2
The speech communication process as a whole includes seven elements-speaker, message, channel, listener, feedback, interference, and situation. 21/5/1
The starting materials for the petrochemical industry are obtained from crude petroleum in one of two general ways. /8/1
The statement that oil originated in the sea is confirmed by a glance at a map showing the chief oilfield of the world; very few of them are far distant from the oceans of today. 36/2/7 The states were warring with each other, the rulers fighting for power. 32/3/2 The stones and bricks became the sides of the Wall. 32/9/4
The story of the Great Wall is the story of Emperor Chin Shih-huang, who thought of it. 32/2/1 The story of these stamps began on May 14,1918,the day after they were placed on sale. 8/2/1 The Strenuous Life 23/
The success of such a coalition strategy would depend on the number of countries willing to join. 49/14/2
The sunlit pastures are at the top, where the water is saturated with tiny drifting vegetables, phytoplankton, and equally minute animals, zooplankton. 48/4/2 The surface itself ranges from heat of 230℉ to cold of minus 290℉,depending upon where the sun is. 14/7/4 The swift, bright fish of this world have a great beauty. 25/13/1
The techniques employed, to be effective, should be consistent with local preference. 45/9/2 The techniques of sales promotion are varied and numerous. 45/2/1
The thing to do, I decided, was to stop as soon as I came to a good place for a rest. 41/5/3
The third auxiliary rule for becoming rich is to marry someone with an equal or higher education, and then stay married. 43/7/1
The third has a few books or many every one of them dogeared and dilapidated, shaken and loosened by continual use, marked and scribbled in from front to back. (This man owns books.) 46/6/4 The third largest city is Lethbridge, having a population of about 67,000 persons. 22/5/4
The three major goals of speaking-to inform, to persuade, to entertain-are also the three major goals of everyday conversation. 21/2/2 The tides on the nearby island were found to be exactly four hours later than the Cape Cod tides. 47/8/4
The timid man, the lazy man, the man who distrusts his country, the overcivilized man, who has lost the great fighting, masterful virtues, the ignorant man and the man of dull mind, whose soul is incapable of feeling the mighty lift that thrills \"stem men with empires in their brains\"-all these, of course, shrink from seeing the nation undertake its new duties; shrink from seeing us build a navy and army adequate to our needs; shrink from seeing us do our share of the world's work by bringing order out of chaos in the great, fair tropic islands from which the valor of our soldiers and sailors has driven the Spanish flag. 23/2/1 The top of the Wall became a roadway for horses (wide enough for two of today's automobiles). 32/9/6 The trade often uses the term indiscriminately. 45/1/2
The traffic light at the next corner turned red, but he whipped right at the corner without slowing. 56/20/3 The training is invaluable for every type of communication. 21/1/5
The tremor may even be so light that only the most delicate machine will record it. 24/7/2
The trend of the evidence has been consistent and indicates that there is a serious health risk. 19/2/2
The trouble was that the reward was not always given to everyone,nor was it given to those who deserved it most. 35/4/7 The twentieth century looms before us big with the fate of many nations. 23/3/2
The type use by the United States government cannot be purchased anywhere else. 27/9/5
The U.S. believes that sanctions on Iran's energy exports might force Tehran to renounce its uranium-enrichment ambitions. 49/2/1 The U.S. isn't bluffing either. 49/8/1
The U.S. will continue over the next several months to try to push sanctions through the Security Council. 49/13/1 The United States established an observatory there in 1957 for the I.G.Y. and has maintained it ever since. 55/14/3
The US, generally acknowledged to be a step ahead of Britain on biofuel, has an estimated 600 stations that offer E85. 53/14/4 The use of coins and money grew just as civilization advanced. 27/5/1 The use of sales promotion is not limited to consumer products. 45/5/1
The vast expanse of the United States of America stretches from the heavily industrialized, metropolitan Atlantic seaboard across the rich flat farms of the central plains, over the Rocky Mountains to the fertile west coast, then halfway across the Pacific to the balmy island-state of Hawaii. 39/1/1 The Versatile Lead Pencil 42/
The Wall began at the Gulf of Chihli. 32/9/1
The Wall stood, made only of hard-packed clay. 32/11/7
The Wall we see today is not wholly that of Emperor Chin. 32/16/1 The War of 1812 halted imports of pencils. 42/15/2
The whole country breaks out with little red hearts. Love-struck people give cards, flowers and candy to their sweethearts. 6/1/3 The word \"pencil\" is from Latin.The first pencils were fine or stiff brushes of hair. 42/2/3 The word \"spade\" comes from the Italian word which means “sword”. 11/3/2 The word, friend, covers a wide range of meanings. 3/1/1
The world peace is, in turn, enhanced by China’s development. 60/12/7 The world waits to see what we will do. What is the world? 12/5/4
The world watches in awe, and hope, as the lives of 1.3 billion people continue to be transformed. 52/15/5 The world watches. The world listens. 12/5/3
The world will little note nor long remember [An adjective \"long\" is usually not followed by a verb \"remember.\" You may need to use an adverbial form of \"long\" or a comma before \"remember. \"] what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. 17/7/3
The world's deepest land shaft accessible to men is the Champion Reef gold mine in India, which is only 9,811 feet deep. 48/11/3

Their eyes and ears take in all sights and sound hazily, without concentration, and with little appreciation. 58/6/5
Their problem was to bind the black powder together again so it would be hard enough to serve as a writing instrument. 42/12/2 Their television programs have been shown in many countries. 31/4/8 Then a huge collie came bounding out of a driveway. 41/22/3 Then came the voice of our nose gunner. 10/10/4
Then during the late fall and winter as the clock \"ticks\
Then from the Amazon and the Congo, from Pacific Island and West Indian reefs, scientists began to send home hundreds of strange, beautiful fish. 25/9/2 Then he points to the phone and says: “If there’s anything else you need, just call. Then he sent the sounds of bells a little farther. 59/21/2
Then he told his friends of his discovery,and they,too,looked in the city's post offices-also in vain. 8/4/2 Then I learned the awful truth. 41/10/4
Then in 1793, an American named Robert Fulton became interested in an idea which would mean the end of sailing ships. 59/4/2 Then in 1806, he returned to the United States and began to build the Clermont. 59/5/2 Then it's time for you to relax and let me return the favor,\" I said. 9/6/7 Then my breath choked off. 56/25/9
Then the computer printed out a critique. Hereit is: 17/4/2 Then the study can begin. 48/16/4
Then the unbelievable: the enemy jet leveled off. It flashed below us and was gone. 10/22 Then the workers built up the sides of the Wall even higher. 32/9/7 Then there is Iran's trump card. 49/10/1
Then we passed through Tuttle, and still he kept heading west. 56/9/4 Then we went back to the business of getting home. 10/24/1
Then, just as the shade was within reach, a small voice said, \"Hey, mister, we'll race you!\" 41/13/4
Then, upsetting the universal belief that nothing, not even light, can escape from a black hole, he used the quantum theory to demonstrate that these miniholes (and larger ones too) emit radiation. 51/4/2 Theories that petroleum is not formed by the transformation of organic matter in sediments have already been noted and are examined in more detail. 40/7/2
There are a number of small islands between this line and the Antarctic continent, but the waters here are known to mariners as \"the screaming Sixties\" because there is so little obstruction to the world-circling winds. 55/6/2 There are about 30,000 known species of marine life, and marine biologists discover more than 100 new ones each year. 48/7/4
There are about nine ways of listening that net us nothing but trouble, according to Dr. Ralph Nichols of the University of Minnesota. 57/6/1 There are also drive-in fast food restaurants, where the customer does not even have to leave his or her car. 18/5/4
There are also indications that these materials and other similar derivatives of the asphaltenes, especially those containing such functions as carboxylic or hydroxyl, readily exchange cations and could well compete with synthetic zeolites. /10/3
There are billions of people, locked outside global markets, whose lives are still accurately described by Hobbes's cruel phrase. But even here, there is change. 50/7/2 There are excellent wines produced in California which are praised by European connoisseurs, but some Americans prefer stronger stuff. 18/3/1 There are four different Kings, and each one stands for a real person. 11/5/4 There are four main areas of the world where deposits of oil appear. 36/7/1
There are losers in every race, but let not the worries over who is winning and losing the knowledge race obscure the more powerful underlying dynamic: knowledge is liberating. 50/8/2 There are many novelty pencils. 42/6/1
There are many similarities between public speaking and daily conversation. 21/2/1 There are other possible economic values. 55/11/1
There are probably huge quantities of crude oil beneath the surface. 36/3/5 There are some good reasons for this. 27/8/3
There are those, of course, who would adopt the epicurean motto of “Eat, drink, and be merry,” but most people would be chastened by the certainty of impending death. 58/3/4 There are three kinds of book owners. 46/6/1
There are two ways in which you can own a book. 46/4/1
There developed more than 100 beautiful kinds with such names as Falling Flowers, Seven Stars, Eight Melon Seeds, Piled-up-Gold, As Europeans began to go the Far East in numbers during the 17th century, it happened that they too grew to like the little carp. 25/8/3
There have also been many cases of famous performers or athletes who have insured themselves against accidents. 35/8/4
There have been supermarkets in the USA since the 1930s, and they have now spread through a large part of the world. 18/7/4 There he planned to show it to a collector,Colonel E.H.R.Green,as well as to stamp dealers. 8/5/3 There is a lot of luck in drilling for oil. 36/5/1 There is a pencil for every purpose. 42/4/1 There is abundant evidence on both sides. 37/6/3
There is also an interest in sea horses, puffers, clown fish and other salty types with shapes more strange and colors brighter than even the showiest of fresh-water fish. 25/11/3 There is also nicotine, which is a powerful poison, and black tar. 19/5/3
There is an old English saying,\"Necessity is the mother of invention,\" which means that when you are faced with a need you will discover some way of fulfilling it. 16/5/1
There is an oriental story of two men: one was a king, who every night dreamt he was a beggar; the other was a beggar, who every night dreamt he was a prince and lived in a palace. 13/2/1 There is even a special electric pencil used for tests checked by electronic machines. 42/5/3
There is more money being spent on vaccines and cures for diseases in Africa and Asia today than ever before in history. Foreign-aid programs face constant scrutiny and analysis. 50/7/4 There is no life, and there is no water. 14/5/2
There is no question that Antarctica plays an important role in the weather that affects the destinies of those living south of the equator; some believe its effects are felt in the north as well. 55/13/2 There is no reason for us to be enemies. 12/7/1
There is one suggestion that the wheeled traffic and the footsteps of crowds walking the streets in major cities could generate energy. 16/5/3
There is only one way to prevent this : open discussion of economic policies in order to expose fallacies and provide scope for creative solutions to the many challenges facing China today. 52/14/2
There was a second clock inside the crab,for the tides also occur 50 minutes later from day to day.Moreover,even when the crabs were taken from the beach and put back in the dark,they continued their tidal rhythm. 47/8/2 There was,of course,no way could the two colonies have checked take-off time with each other. 47/9/7 There were all the children, standing on their front lawns staring at me. 41/10/2 There were several routes. 56/9/3
There,dealer Eugene Klein arranged to buy the sheet for $15,000,and finally did buy it. 8/7/2
There,too.They emerged from their hive exactly 24 hours later for their accustomed feeding. 47/4/2 Therefore ,how we listen is extremely important. 57/2/1 Therefore in order to be successful we need devotion. 2/3/4
Therefore it requires sustained and unremitting efforts to transform the country and make life better for its people. 60/5/3 Therefore,he might attempt to insure himself against that possibility. 35/8/7
These are among the most important skills you will need for public speaking. 21/2/7
These are the men who fear the strenuous life, who fear the only national life which is really worth leading.
These are the principles upon which alone a new world recognizing the brotherhood of man and the fatherhood of God can be established. 7/16
These are the principles,however formulated,for which all good men and women throughout the world, irrespective of race or creed,education,social position,or occupation,are standing,and for which many of them are suffering and dying. 7/15
These clocks are sometimes set by the number of hours of light or darkness in a day,by the rhythm of the tides or by the seasons. 47/5/2 These companies were some of the first to accept payment for insurance. 35/6/2
These data are shared globally through an unprecedented cooperation among 58 nations called the Global Earth Observation System of Systems. 20/7/2
These examples are not isolated cases, and it has been argued that oil may better be found by random drilling than by the appliance of scientific principles. 40/8/4
These finds are important only as indications that further exploration would be worthwhile, and such a systematic effort has begun under SCAR (the Special Committee on Antarctic Research). 55/10/5 These fuels give off heat when they burn. 33/13/2
These ideas are now known to be incorrect, and no doubt we are still wrong about many other things, also. 14/3/5 These included eight operations offices and various production and weapons facilities. 29/8/4 These men made themselves famous for their courage and bravery, but they were not kings. 11/11/4
These names come from the fact that the source of energy the nucleus,or core,of the atom,Nuclear fuels much as plutonium and uranium give off heat energy when fission(the splitting of atoms in these fuels) occurs. 33/14/2 These problems can be solved. But knowledge is not the same thing as wisdom. 50/9/2 These stories proved to be false. 8/6/3
These technological developments have brought humanity to the brink of \"great opportunities,\" said American Geophysical Union president John Orcutt at a meeting of the group last week in San Francisco. 20/3/1 These varied from the ten regional regulatory offices of the Federal Energy Administration to the Bureau of Mines research laboratories at Bartlesville, Morgantown, Pittsburgh, and Laramie. 29/8/2 They actually led to the development of cities. 59/2/4
They also note that it will be difficult to create a network of \"gas\" stations selling bioethanol, since many of Britain's current gas stations are owned by petrochemical giants that have little interest in supplying a product that challenges their own hegemony. 53/10/1
They also spend more than a million dollars a year for fish, tanks, planes(应为plants), sand, shells, food and gadgets for heating and cleaning aquariums. 25/6/3 They are establishing systems to monitor our entire planet continuously, from the outer fringes of the atmosphere to the deepest seabed. 20/1/2 They are linking communications systems to shunt these data to whomever can work them into useful knowledge. 20/2/1 They are sedimentary rocks, rocks which were laid down by the action of water on the bed of the ocean. 36/2/10 They are the principles in which my father believed and by which he governed his life. 7/1/2 They are the principles on which my wile and I have tried to bring up our family. 7/1/1 They are the principles, many of them, which I learned at my mother's knee. 7/1/3
They are wrong. For instance, you are getting a story for your school paper on assembly speaker. 57/15/2
They believe in that cloistered life which saps the hardy virtues in a nation, as it saps them in the individual; or else they are wedded to that base spirit of gain and greed which recognizes in commercialism the be-all and end-all of national life, instead of realizing that, though an indispensable element, it is after all but one of the many elements that go to make up true national greatness. 23/2/2 They call him Cuddles! 41/23/3
They can't wait to hear about our evening.\" 9/5/4
They chose a small member of carp family, Carassius auratus, better known as the goldfish. 25/8/1 They come with French fries and crisp green salad. 18/4/4
They consider the increase in respiratory diseases and various forms of cancer may possibly be explained by other factors in the complex human environment --atmospheric pollution, increased nervous stress, chemical substances in processed food, or chemical pesticides that are now being used by farmers in vast quantifies to destroy insects and small animals. 19/4/2
They contain the history of our race, the discoveries we have made, the accumulated knowledge and experience of ages; 13/1/2
They do this by being well informed about their subjects by being honest in what they say, by using sound evidence, and by employing valid reasoning. 21/6/3 They even are beginning to track the grinding of rock upon rock that generates earthquakes. 20/1/3
They first stop at a board where the menu is displayed, give an order through a microphone and then drive another twenty yards, where a girl hands them the meal, ready cooked and packed. 18/5/5 They forget that it is possible for a man to acquire that idea, to possess the beauty, which a great book contains, without staking his claim by pasting his bookplate inside the cover. 46/5/2 They give us valuable practice in helping the eyes,brain and muscles to work together. 5/3/2 They had hit the railroad yards at Linz along the Danube River. 10/1/4
They had three children in the early stages of their marriage, and later, as he became increasingly incapacitated, she devoted herself to catering to his every need. 51/7/3
They have been able to do this because of their energies and exertions, of course, but also because they cleverly and perhaps luckily adopted certain ideas about development that had worked in the West-reasonably free markets, open trade, a focus on science and technology, among them. 50/4/3
They have seen them, touched them, and played with them. 30/3/3
They have such massive branding and distribution that no one's going to buy my stuff.\" 53/12/2 They laid stone squares and bricks in the trenches to a height of 20 feet. 32/9/3 They lived in glory as lord of his court. 32/4/5
They lowered nets, dredges, bathythermographs, still cameras, water bottles, coring pipes, and current meters. 48/17/2
They may also make still and motion pictures of the trench, take water and sedimental temperatures, and perhaps sight no one knows what living creatures in that perpetual night. 48/12/2 They may be present in the virgin petroleum and as such, are isolated by physical methods, such as distillation or solvent extraction. /8/2 They must have caught him,\" one voice said. 41/16
they picture for us the marvels and beauties of nature, help us in our difficulties, comfort us in sorrow and in suffering, change hours of weariness into moments of delight, store our minds with ideas, fill them with good and happy thoughts, and lift us out of and above ourselves. 13/1/3
They point the way to usefulness and happiness in life, to courage and peace in death. 7/2
They result from chemical processes that change the molecular nature of selected portions of crude petroleum; in other words, they are the products of refining or they are refined products. 44/1/4 They say the human and wheeled traffic in a busy city center could provide enough energy to light the streets of an entire town or power the heating system for a hospital or school. 16/5/5 They should not be treated only as amusements. 5/2/3
They showed by their lives that they recognized the law of work, the law of strife; they toiled to win a competence for themselves and those dependent upon them; but they recognized that there were yet other and even loftier duties-duties to the nation and duties to the race. 23/2/6 They sold it for writing purposes. 42/11/3
They strove for harmony between man and nature, among people and between man’s body and soul, and yearned for an ideal society where “everyone loves everyone else, everyone is equal and the whole world is one community.” 60/11/3 They subscribe to such magazines as The Aquarium, and join clubs. 25/6/2
They think that the oil under the surface of the earth originated in the distant past, and was formed from living things in the sea. 36/2/3 They tried it again and realized that they had discovered how to send human sounds over a wire. 59/17/1 They want to make sure that they don't have to pay all the repair bills themselves. 35/9/5 They were afraid they, too, would be made to work. 32/10/6
They were covered with huge deposits of mud; and by processes of chemistry, pressure and temperature were changed through long ages into what we know as oil. 36/2/5 They were scoured clear of soil ages ago, but one may sometimes find moss or lichens growing, though virtually no flowering plants. 55/9/2 They were the little bundles of tin that confused enemy radar. 10/2/2 They were wrong. 59/4/7
