3、hocked by this state of affairs.People didn't think of the underwater garbage because it was out of sight.

10、 heard：“Will my baby be able to learn my language？”Be honest，do you know all the words of your mother tongue？The answer is：“No.” New words，and new ways of using old words，appear every day.Twenty years ago，who would have been able to understand a sentence like this：“Click here to download your digit

11、al book？” Nobody.You never stop learning new vocabulary and you never know how long you will need it. Sometimes，you have the word on the tip of your tongue...and it sticks there！But you do know this phenomenon(現象)and don't think that it is because of a bad memory.You should not give this phenomenon

12、 more importance in the language you are learning than in your mother tongue.

19、 a small fine(罰款)．How much would you have to pay if the book is returned 65 years late?

However，the school said that it would not ask Wayne to pay

20、 the fine，though that would be about $475. The book was borrowed out of the library of the high school in 1949，and disappeared until it was found in Maine，US by Wayne.Wayne found the book in his father's basement(地下室)and then offered to send it back to the school.“I feel very sorry about that，”Wayn
