A Solemn Moment (庄严时刻)
It is usual at international soccer matches to play the national anthems of the competing teams.
The players line up (列队) in the center of the field and the anthems of their countries are played through loudspeakers.
It is a kind of good manners given to visitors from other countries.
A few years ago, Greece was playing R. O. Korea in an important international soccer game.
As is often the case with international sports events, the game was not played in either team's home country.
It was played in a third, “neutral (中立的)” country.
As the two teams walked onto the pitch, music was played to the crowd over the loudspeakers.
The R. O. Korean players immediately stood to attention (立正).
They all thought it was the Greek national anthem.
The Greek players knew it was not their national anthem, but they stood to attention too.
They thought it was the Korean national anthem.
The spectators (观众) were surprised by the behavior of the teams and wondered what was happening.
Then, as all the players stood to attention, a voice came over the loudspeakers.
Only then did the spectators and the players know that the music was an advertisement for a new brand toothpaste (牙膏牌子).

查看习题详情和答案>>“The Lord of the Rings”, one of the best-sellers in the new millennium（千年）, was made up of three parts--“The Fellowship of the Ring”,“Two Towers”, and“The Return of the King”. Millions upon millions of people have read it in over 25 different languages, but fewer know about the author and the history of the composition of the creative masterwork.
John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was born in South Africa in 1892. His parents died when he was a child. Living in England with his aunt, Tolkien and his cousins made up play languages, a hobby that led to Tolkien's becoming skilled in Welsh, Greek, Gothic, Old Norse and Anglo-Saxon.
After graduating from Oxford, Tolkien served in World War I. In 1917, while recovering from trench fever, he began composing the mythology for The Rings. As a professor of Anglo-Saxon in 1930s at Oxford, Tolkien was part of an informal discussion group called the Inklings, which included several writers. The group was soon listening to chapters of Tolkien's imaginative work “The Hobbit”.
Hobbit was a name Tolkien created for a local people that could best Be described as half-sized members of the English rural（乡村的）class. Hobbits live in hillside holes. One of them, Bilbo Baggins, looks for treasures with a group of dwarves（侏儒）. On the way, he meets the twisted, pitiful creature Gollum, from whom he sees a golden ring that makes the holder invisible.
One of Tolkien's students persuaded her employer, publisher Allen & Unwin, to look at a draft（草稿）. The chairman of the firm, Stanley Unwin, thought that the best judge for a children's book would be his ten-year-old son. The boy earned a shilling for reporting back that the adventure was exciting, and“The Hobbit”was published in 1937.
It sold so well that Unwin asked for a continuation. Over a dozen years later, in 1954, Tolkien produced“The Lord of the Rings”, a series of books so creative that they hold readers--new and old--after their publication.
