There were many people living together in a one-block
complex. One of the wives complained to her husband,
"Look here! All of our neighbors' husbands call their wives
such sweet and romantic names.
(wow power leveling),
You never call me one like that."
So the husband said, "What do they call their wives?
I never heard anything!"
The wife said, "The one who lives on our right,
he calls his wife 'apple pie'. The one who lives next
to him calls his wife 'sweet cherry blossom'.
The one who lives to the left of us calls his wife 'rosemary'.
(It's a very fragrant kind of spice you put into your food.)
The one next to him, calls his wife 'my lovely pizza'.
The other one says, 'Oh my diamond, my glorious diamond'.
And you! You never call me anything so sweet
and romantic like that!"
(World of warcraft Power Leveling) ,
So the husband shook his head and said,
"I am sorry, but the one who lives on the right,
he is a baker. The one next to him is a gardener,
he plants Japanese cherries. The one who calls his
wow gold,
wife 'rosemary', grows herbs! And the other one calls his
wife 'diamond' because he is a jeweler. I cannot! I am
a shoe-repairer. I can't call you 'my broken shoe'. "
It was good that he wasn't a coffin-maker. Otherwise,
he called her, 'my solid coffin' to give her the
sweetest name that she desired

For any given task in Britain there are more men than are needed. Strong unions keep them there in

Fleet Street, home of some London’s biggest dailies, it is understood that when two unions quarrel

over three jobs, the argument is settled by giving each union two. Thru means 33 per cent over

manning, 33 per cent less productivity than could be obtained.
A reporter who has visited plants throughout Europe has an impression that the pace of work is much

slower here. Nobody tries tm hard. Tea breaks do matter and are frequent. It is hard to measure

intensity of work, but Britons give a distinct impression of going at their tasks in a more leisurely

way.wow power leveling,
But is all this so terrible? It certainly does not improve the gross national product or output per

worker. Those observant visitors, however, have noticed something else about Britain. It is a pleasant

place.
Street crowds in Stockholm. Paris and New York move quickly and silently heads down, all in a hurry.

London crowds tend to walk at an easy pace (except in the profitable, efficient City, the financial

district).

Every stranger is struck by the patient and orderly way in which Britons queue for a bus; if the

saleswoman is slow and out of stock she will likely say,‘oh dear, what a pity’; the rubbish

collectors stop to chat and call the housewives“Luv”. Crime rises here as in every city but there

still remains a gentle tone and temper that is unmatched in Berlin, Milan or Detroit.It short, what is

wrong with Britain may also be what is right. Having reached a tolerable standard, Britons appear to

be choosing leisure over goods.56. What happens when disputes over job opportunities arise among

British unions?A) Thirty-three per cent of the workers will be out of workB) More people will be

employed than necessaryC) More jobs will be created by the governmentD) The unions will try to

increase productivity.57.

What does the reporter who has visited plants throughout Europe think about Britain?A) Tea breaks do

not affect the intensity of work in BritainB) Britons do their work in an unhurried sort of wayC) The

pace of work in Continental Europe is much slower than in BritainD) Britons give the impression of

working intensively58.“The breaks do matter” ( Para.2 Line 2) indicates tha they are an important

aspect of the British way of lifeB) they are greatly enjoyed by British workersC) they can be used by

the workers as excuse to take time off from workD) they help the workers to be on good terms with each

other59. The word“this” (Para.3 Line.1) refers

Britons generally do not want to work too hard60. By“what is wrong with Britain may also be what is
