39 his opinion is usually as 40 as that of men three or four times his 41 .
Most schools in England take 42 seriously—much more seriously than nearly all the schools in other countries, 43 lessons are all important and games are left for one’s own arrangements（安排）. In England, it is believed that 44 is not only a matter of filling a boy’s mind with facts in the 45 ; it also means character training; and one of the 46 ways of training character is by means of games, 47 team games, where the boy has to learn to 48 with others for his team, instead of working just for himself alone.

Every fast-food employee knows that the drive-through window is the worst position．The window sticks with constant ice; the roar of engines hurts your ; your words are lost in the howling wind．
On a afternoon, everything changed．Every once in a while, the sub-zero temperatures seal（密封） a windows shut．Drivers don’t exactly enjoy having to stand outside in the cold, their orders into a speaker box, when they expect to drive through on their heated leather seats．In such cases, most customers tend to show their annoyance to the employees．

Five vehicles passed, then ten, then twenty．No one refused to pay．Customers stood at my window a fist-full of change to buy drinks for a complete stranger．Cars drove off, honking（鸣笛） and their thanks．
