17、talian countryside, I have encountered a greater variety of strange insects than I even thought existed. I have also become more of an observer.A spider built a web outside my office window. My policy these days tends to be one of live and let live. So I just let it be. Every so often, when I took a
18、 break from working, I would go to the window and there he would be; perfectly still, waiting in exactly the same place.

19、g at all. But he stayed there anyhow, perfectly still-waiting. I wondered if he was getting quite hungry by now. One day, I went to the window and the web was still there but the spider was gone.

22、me situations, do things the exact same way weve always done them, but expect or hope for a different result! We dont even have the intelligence of a spider.

23、job, the same relationship, the same social group that you either hate or thats doing you no good at all? Unlike this little spider, many people dont know when to quit or when to move on in life to a fresh challenge. However, if we are failing to get the results we want in life, there is no point ha
24、nging around in our comfort zone, fearing the unknown. This spider did not get caught in his own web. Dont get caught in yours! 56.

29、ic ruling ended racial segregation(隔离) by allowing black children to go to the same schools as white children.The court said that the US Constitution guaranteed “equal protection of the laws”, and this meant equal treatment for backs and whims. This overturned a 19th century ruling that permitted “s
30、eparate but equal” racial segregation.Thanks to the Brown ruling, from the late 1950s segregation was ended on a much wider scale. Buses, beaches, jobs, housing, votingblack people had equal rights to white people in most areas of society. The ruling also helped improved rights for women and the dis
