10、Great Britain became the worlds leader. Language itself became submitted to rules during this period. This need to fix the English language is best illustrated (描述) in the making of The Dictionary of the English Language by Samuel Johnson. Guides to the English language had been in existence before

11、Johnson began his project in 1746. These, however, were often little more than lists of hard words. When definitions of common words were supplied, they were often unhelpful.

24、inks its important to keep a sense of yourself. She says: “Im very much an individual person, away from Marilyn. I think you could lose yourself very easily being someone else all the time and lose your own identity”.I asked Jerry if he thinks impersonating Daniel Radcliffe professionally could go t

25、o his head. I worried that all the adulation(恭维) might change him and make him leave me behind. “No way,”he said. “We do everything together.”What about you?
