2、socializing anyway.Jim and Emily are involved in school activities,but they too spend most of their time at home./此段要背The other requirement is energy-a lot of it.The way to make self-sufficiency work on a small scaleis to resist the temptation to buy a tractor and other expensive laborsaving devices

3、. Instead, you do the work yourself .The only machinery we own (not counting the lawn mower) is a little three-horsepower rotary cultivator and a 16-inch chain saw. / 此段要背我想，不是所有热爱乡村的人都会乐意过我们这种生活的。这种生活需要一些特殊的素质。其一是耐得住寂寞。由于我们如此忙碌，手头又紧，我们很少请客。在作物生长季节，根本就没工夫参加社交活动。吉米和埃米莉虽然参加学校的各种活动，但他俩大多数时间也呆在家里。另一项要求是

Who i

12、s going to make the psychic payment for the transformation of America from the Land of the Free to the Land of the Lock?广告指出，没错，确是保险公司理赔失窃物品，但谁来赔偿互不信任、担心害怕这种新氛围对我们的生活方式所造成的影响呢？谁来对美国从自由之国到锁之国这一蜕变做出精神赔偿呢？8 For that is what has happened.
