18、 as an outdoor feast became a best-seller. The growing Ad industry helped spread popular images of the tale. By the 1920s, Thanksgiving was the most talked-about holiday in U.S. classrooms. The parts that made the colonists (殖民者)look bad were left out.However, many classrooms are beginning to change

19、. And on a recent Saturday morning in Washington DC, about two dozen teachers went to the National Museum of the American Indian to learn a better way to teach the Thanksgiving story.

27、heres something cartoonish about the threat of a blizzard, in which natures anger assumes a fluffy （蓬松的）form and tries to kill you.

28、ventures, usually involving people trying, unwisely, to do something.Mr. Griffin, therefore known as Jimmy Six-Pack, understood this. The Snow Gods reserve special hatred fbr those who dont respect their ability to bring human activity to a standstill. The snow cares not for your deadlines or your h

29、appy hour plans. It wants only to fall on the ground and lie there. And it wants you to too.Needless to say, you should.

30、lo9s mighty blizzard of 1985, but I still recall the great drifts （雪堆）that climbed over houses, the spectacle of a world made surprisingly new. Its a vision that often comes back to my mind every now and then, as we face the terrible prospect that a climate changed by human appetites 一 the future wi

41、 risks opening the floodgates to junk science” 一something which, so far at least, has yet to occur.Preprints enable the informal scientific discussions once restricted to correspondence between individuals. They could also become an effective outlet for negative results-a vital aspect of the scienti
