He always made a list, but he always forgot to

42、 put one or more things on the list. This used to anger him, but now he just accepted it. Youre not as sharp as you used to be, he told himself.It was Friday-shopping day. He went to the $99 Store. Sometimes they had a lot of fresh produce, sometimes they didnt. He got lucky. There were fresh packag

43、ed broccoli, carrots, onions, and squash. Also, packages of peaches, plums, and apples. He easily had enough produce to last all week, if it didnt go bad first. The fruit and vegetables alone filled up four plastic bags. Four other bags contained other items that were on Neils list.He drove to Alber

44、tsons, which sold milk by the gallon (加仑) and at cheaper prices than the $99 Store. Interestingly, the price of milk had got higher in the last month. He used to buy 2 gallons of nonfat milk for $3.59. Now he was paying $4.69. Yet, the news media reports a 2-cent increase in gasoline (汽油) prices. Th

He managed, as usual, to put all 10 plastic bags into his hands and take them upstairs.“What a heavy shopping it is,” he thought.

49、 about anything and stays calm in a stressful situation.If two people are very similar, you might say they are like two peas in a pod. There are several expressions about beans. If someone is very energetic, you might say she is full of beans. If you say something does not amount to a hill of beans,

50、 you mean it is of little importance. I might say you dont know beans about a subject if you do not know anything at all about it. But if you spill the beans, you tell something that was supposed to be a secret.Potatoes are a popular food in many areas. But something is considered small potatoes if

51、it is not important. You probably would not want to hold a hot potato in your empty hands. This also means a problem or an issue that no one wants to deal with. Someone might call you a couch potato if you sit and watch television all day and get little or no physical exercise.Finally, let us talk a

52、bout lemons. Lemons have a sour taste if you eat them plain. But lemons make a nice drink when you mix their juice with sugar and water.
