27、Sweden' s energy supply , for example , is presently coming from wood bark and pulp remains .

33、The house owner ,for example , knows that his property can be damaged by fire ; the ship-owner knows that his vessel may be lost at sea ; the breadwinner knows that he may die at an early age and leave his family the poorer .

34、st at sea . If these persons each put a small sum into a pool , there will be enough to meet the needsof the few who do suffer loss .

35、 " and those who administerthe pool ofcontributions as a insurers ".Not all risks lend themselves to being covered by insurance . Broadly speaking the ordinary risks of business and speculation cannot be covered . The risk that buyers will not buy goods at the prices offered is not of a ki

38、und reason for this . Over a large number of years many law cases have been brought to clear up the meanings of doubtful phrases in policies .

45、to welcome as new acquaintances （相识）.Our human friends sometimes may bore us , but the friends we make in books need never wearyus with their company . By turning the page we can dismiss without any fear of hurting their feelings . Whenhuman friends desert （抛弃）us , good books are always ready to giv

46、e us friendship , sympathy and encouragement .One of the most valuable gifts bestowed （授予）by books is experience .

47、l realities of everyday life or we long to visitsome far-offplace , a book will help us when nothing else can .

54、to Father Christmas written after his schoolteacher father had been knifed to death outside his school gate , must havetouched every heart .Lucien went on to say that without his father he couldn ' tsee the stars in the sky . When those whom we love depart from us , we cannot see the stars for a

55、 while .But Lucien , the stars are still there , and one day , when you are older and your tears have gone , you will see them again.
