He taught Tom how to sing, dance, act and tell jokes. When he felt Tom was ready to perform on stage, he made
3、up ads. To stir up great interest, he said that Tom was eleven years old and had come from England.During the show, Tom fought battles pretendedly with tall people.

5、 love, and they married.The ceremony and reception were the talk of the town. They were attended by many rich and famous people and by about 2000 guests.

10、nical death occurs when the vital organs, such as the heart or lungs, have ceased to function, but have not suffered permanent damage. The organism can still be revived(复活). Biological death occurs when changes in the organism lead to the “breaking up” of vital cells and tissues. Death is then uncha
11、ngeable and final.Scientists have been seeking a way to prolong the period of clinical death so that the organism can remain alive before biological death occurs. The best method developed so far involves cooling of the organism, combined with narcotic sleep. By slowing down the bodys metabolism(新陈代
12、谢), cooling delays the processes leading to biological death.To illustrate how this works, scientists performed an experiment on a six-year-old female monkey called Keta. The scientist put Keta to sleep with a narcotic. Then they surrounded her body with ice-bags and began checking her body temperat

14、s point the scientists pumped blood into an artery in the direction of the heart and started artificial breathing. After two minutes Ketas heart became active once more.

20、ng birds with complaining about the noise. Here are some examples of rudeness.Some people prefer to do almost everything over the Internet.
