32、 morning I was in Richmond, a suburb of London near where I lived. I was looking for a temporary job so that I could save up some money to go travelling.

37、s time in uniform, and I was left in no doubt. What can we infer from this sentence? A. The second policeman was wearing uniform while the first one was in the ordinary clothes. B.

43、ig mistake”?The author means that he should not have appeared so cool and unconcerned about the incident and should not have considered himself to be part of the sixties “youth counter-culture”. All these confirmed the polices suspicion that he was a thoroughly disreputable person.第44页Para.13in the

55、have been found guilty.1. What does “the obscure nature of the charge” refer to?
