Postcards always spoil my holidays. Last summer, I went toItaly. I visited museums and sat in public gardens. A friendly waiter taught me a few words of Italian. Then he lent me a book. I read a few lines, but I did not understand a word. Everyday I thought about postcards. My holidays passed quickly, but I did not send cards to my friends. On the last day I made a big decision. I got up early and bought thirty-seven cards. I spent the whole day in my room, but I did not write a single card!

【theexpertswerenowfullyconvincedthattheanimal

pumas are large, cat-like animals which are found in america. when reports came into london zoo that a wild puma had been spotted发现 forty-five miles south of london, they were not taken seriously. however, as the evidence（证据） began to accumulate（积累）， experts from the zoo felt obliged to investigate, for the descriptions given by people who claimed to have seen the puma were extraordinarily similar. the hunt for（搜寻） the puma began in a small village where a woman picking blackberries saw 'a large cat' only five yards away from her. it immediately ran away when she saw it, and experts confirmed（确认） that a puma will not attack（攻击） a human being人类 unless it is cornered(adj.被困得走投无路的). the search proved difficult, for the puma was often observed（看到） at one place in the morning and at another place twenty miles away in the evening. wherever it went, it left behind it a trail of dead deer and small animals like rabbits. paw prints were seen in a number of places and puma fur was found clinging to bushes. several people complained of（抱怨）'cat-like noises' at night and a businessman on a fishing trip saw the puma up a tree. the experts were now fully convinced that the animal was a puma, but where had it come from ? as no pumas had been reported missing from any zoo in the country, this one must have been in the possession of在某人手中（为......所有） a private collector and somehow managed to escape. the hunt went on for several weeks, but the puma was not caught. it is disturbing to think想起来真讨厌 that a dangerous wild animal is still at large in the quiet countryside. l2:our vicar is always raising money for one cause or another, but he has never managed to get enough money to have the church clock repaired. the big clock which used to strike the hours day and night was damaged many years ago and has been silent ever since. one night, however, our vicar woke up with a start: the clock was striking the hours! looking at his watch, he saw that it was one o'clock, but the bell struck thirteen times before it stopped. armed with a torch, the vicar went up into the clock tower to see what was going on. in the torchlight, he caught sight of a figure whom he immediately recognized as bill wilkins, our local grocer.'whatever are you doing up here bill ?' asked the vicar in surprise. ' i'm trying to repair the bell,' answered bill.' i've been coming up here night after night for weeks now. you see, i was hoping to give you a surprise.' 'you certainly did give me a surprise!' said the vicar.'you've probably woken up everyone in the village as well. still, i'm glad the bell is working again.' 'that's the trouble, vicar,' answered bill.'it's working all right, but i'm afraid that at one o'clock it will strike thirteen times and there's nothing i can do about it.' 'we'll get used to that bill,' said the vicar.'thirteen is not as good as one but it's better than nothing. now let's go downstairs and have 是这个么？

如何辨认彪马鞋的真假

下边的文章你也可参考一下A品，B品，厂货，正品，拼货，假货大解析希望有疑问的朋友明白一点：A,B品的概念和厂、正、拼、假货的概念是不同的，这是两种不同的分类但又有共同的地方。

不少说明将其交*说明让一些朋友混乱，原因后面会说的。

我说点我的看法，希望容易明白其中的始末。

一，A、B品-------- 从质量上分 （也只表示质量含义）A、B品的原始说法来源是质量的检测的分类，完全仅仅只是对质量上的划分。

A品的意思就是“授权工厂按严格工艺控制制作的通过了正规检测的鞋”，A品和正品唯一的差别就是＂A品是出售前的正品，A品一旦在正规销售渠道上市，就是正品了”。

国外这些鞋公司是没有自己的鞋厂的，他们*认证授权鞋厂产鞋，然后检测人员验证合格后发放到各销售通路去，A品就是这些。

质量检测不合格的会打上一个红色的B的标记，然后集中销毁。

所以B就是说的质量不过关。

真的所谓B品，正规检测时候一般有一个B的标志的（不过不排除特殊流出的）。

猫腻在于，在部分检测或者销毁的时候，内部工作人员将B品偷运出来地下流通到市面，其实就是将质量不合格的鞋弄出来卖。

还有一种情况就是，检测人员将部分质量过关的鞋（A品）也擅自打上B的标记或者混同着，这样便于偷运出来。

这种鞋其实没有质量问题。

注意：1，市场上JS们故意扩大混淆这个A,B的概念，动不动就喊什么非原厂的A品，更本就是混帐话！不是指定鞋厂产的还有资 格叫A品？？这个A的评级是谁评的？？2，利用上面说的B品的猫腻，故意神神秘秘把一些假鞋/残次鞋说是偷出来的B品，还说和A品一样质量。

3，由于A品是没有自己明显标记的，所以也有人将偷出来问题鞋或者拼的鞋说是A品。

4，无论是A品还是B品，只要不是正规销售渠道出来的都是非法的，都不是正品！！哪怕质量和正品一样！！二，厂鞋，正品------------ 从来源上分本来没有厂鞋这个概念，这个说法是早期灵通人士传出来的。

凡是“从指定授权鞋厂里经过非正式渠道流出来的鞋都叫厂鞋”，这里面就包括A品和B品。

包括偷出来的A品；偷出来的B品；偷出来的名义是B品但实际是A品；偷出来的残次品。

请记住，只有真正授权原厂的产品才是厂鞋，市面上一些JS喊的什么所谓“分厂”出来的厂鞋完全就是骗人！正品，正品是最严格的完成品，只有在正规代理和渠道才可能买到，当然价格也是正式的价格，所以有点贵。

正品的意思就是“通过正规渠道，用正规价格出售的A品”。

辨别正品：除了打折的价格，正品的价格都是公司指定的全国统一价格；除了正规渠道和正式代理出售（包括一些小店二传手），其他的都不是正品。

正品一定是带原装鞋盒，有保修单据，一定有正规的质量检测标志。

可以看出，正品的概念远不单只是指质量，还包括价格，销售，品牌等多方面的含义。

所以现在常有人喊什么原厂流出的正品，要么就是故意混淆偷运品和正品的概念，要么就是完全说梦话，尤其可恨的是居然还有喊非原厂产的正品骗钱的。

三，拼鞋假鞋------------- 从生产上分拼鞋就是假鞋的一种！！不要妄想什么所谓的原厂材料就可以做*子立牌坊了。

拼鞋是利用指定鞋厂里生产多余的材料，偷出来的材料，不合格的材料（材料也有选用检测的），从厂里废品垃圾里捡来的破烂等等，然后躲在某个角落自己用低下的工具拼出来的鞋子。

在这里请注意，部分拼鞋做的很象真的，所以很多人将其冒充厂鞋。

注意：1，有常识的人都知道鞋子是一个完整的工艺过程，用了点所谓的原厂材料（比如什么气垫啊）就喊质量好根本就是用502粘起来的航空母舰，骗自己也骗别人。

而且可以肯定的说，所谓拼鞋也只是用了点点部分的原材料，而且各部件还不是配套的（比如42的鞋底配41的鞋面）。

（当然也有强人能全套偷零件出来而且还能细致分工我也没话说了），为什么看鞋标容易分出拼鞋，道理就在这里。

2，拼鞋仍然是假鞋，现在好象一喊什么原厂材料就身价高一些，大家看了上面的就知道这东西是什么货色。

非法偷的材料，非正式拼装，非正规销售途径，低劣的质量1.这双鞋子透气性不好，这是材料造成的。

2.你没有定期保养，建议你让它晒晒太阳。

3.什么鞋子不臭呢？又是在现在这种天气，你说对吧！ ^_^ 至于你说的鉴别真伪，建议你先闻闻鞋子，有没有臭橡胶味，然后看看鞋型正不正，再看看车缝线齐不齐，粗细还一致，应该差不多了，假鞋就是假鞋，不会做的跟真的一样。

（新概念英语）A puma will not attack a human being unless it feels ...

C at an angle 倾斜地；成一个角度D under cover 隐藏着；秘密地明显不符合题意的。

A 和 B 都表示困境，但是区别在于若人陷入困境、落入陷阱可以用AB说动物陷入困境，就比较通人性了，一般在动画片或者拟人化中出现，一般都是用落入陷阱，比较符合动物的身份。
