26、iety and its consumer products. The so called Americanization of France has its critics.

Occasionally, they have reacted against the trend with considerable violence.In sp

29、ite of the critics, however, countless Frenchmen are committed to keeping France in the forefront of the modern economic world. They find that the present life brings more rewards, conveniences, and pleasures than that of the past. They believe that a modern, industrial France is preferable to the o

34、 French Way of LifeB. Criticism of the New Life StyleC. The Americanization of FranceD.

There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is illegible(难以辨认)”. It may have been a sharp cri

38、ticism of the pupils technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted to read the essay, which contained some beautiful expressions of the childs deep feelings.
