16、merican Revolution.It affected everyone,rich and pooralike.Some businessmen felt that the Act would surely ruin their businesses.Of all the voices raised in protest to the Stamp Act,none had greater effect than thatof a young lawyer from Virginia-Patrick Henry.Henry had only recently been electedto

17、the Virginia Assembly.Yet when the Stamp Act came up for discussion,he opposed italmost single-handedly.He also expressed,for the first time,certain ideas that were heldby many Americans of the time but that never before had been stated so openly.“Is lifeso dear or peace so sweet,as to be bought at

24、ies about divorce,death,drugs,air pollution,political extremism andviolence.Relying on the magic of the illustrator,all kinds of books are being published.Before they know to read,babies can play with books made of cloth or books madeto take in the bath.Later on,they are given picture books that may

25、 be cubical(立方形的)ortriangular,outsized or very small.They also like work-books which come with water coloursand paintbrushes,and comic books(漫画册)filled with details where they have to spot a figurehidden among thousands of others.Not that the traditional childrens books are being neglected.There are

26、 still storybookswhere the pages pop up(跳起)when they are opened,to make a forest or a castle.Among thelatest ideas are interactive stories where readers choose the plot(情节)or ending they want,and books on CD,which are very popular in rich industrialized countries.The public has enthusiastically gree

33、y when we or those close to usbecome seriously ill.At such times we keenly appreciate the ancient truth that health is ourmost precious asset,one for which we might readily give up such rewards as power,wealth,or fame(荣誉).Because ill health is universal problem,affecting both the individual and soci
