I shouldn’t let it bother me. It really doesn’t matter anyway. But it does bother me ! All those people are preparing to (21) a new century, a new millennium (千年) as well. And it just isn’t (22) !
Most of us schedule our lives by the Gregorian (23) . Our years are measured from the (24) of Christ. The first year of the first century is 1, or 1 A.D. The last year of that century is the year 100. Simple Yes! A century is 100 (25) long. A millennium is 1,000 years long, which is (26) ten centuries.
Since the last year of the first century is the year 100, the first year of the (27) century is 101. Follow that pattern, century by century and you’ll get my (28) . The year 2000 is the last year of the twentieth century. After all, (29) thousand means twenty hundreds. Twenty hundred years means twenty centuries. The year 2000 is the (30) , the final, the one that’s still here, year of the twentieth century!!!!
I know, I’m getting too (31) . But it isn’t fair, While most people will really be enjoying this coming (32) celebration, those of us in the know will be yawning. Everyone else will be (33) for the new millennium and we’ll be saying, "It’s not until next year."
I don’t agree with the (34) , "Ignorance is bliss." But in this case, perhaps it’s (35) .

The beginning of American
literature ? ?American has always been a land of beginnings. After Europeans " discovered" America in the fifteenth century, the mysterious New World became for many people a genuine hope of a new life, an escape from poverty and persecution, a chance to start again. We can say that, as a nation, America begins with that hope. When, however, does American literature begin? ? ?American literature begins with American experiences. Long before the first colonists arrived, before Christopher Columbus, before the Northmen who found America about year 1,000, Native Americans lived here. Each tribe’s literature was tightly woven into the fabric of daily life and reflected the unmistakably (不会弄错的) American experience of lining with the land. Another kind of experience, one filled with fear and excitement, found its expression in the reports that Columbus and other explorers sent home in Spain, French and English. In addition, the journals of the people who lived and died in the New England wilderness (荒野) tell unforgettable tales of hard end sometimes heartbreaking experiences of those early years. ? ?Experience, then, is the key to early American literature. The New World provided a great variety of experiences, and experiences demanded a wide variety of expressions by an even wider variety of early American writers. These writers included John Smith, who spent only two- and-a-half year. on the American continent. They included Jonathan Edwards and William Byrd, who thought of themselves as British subjects, never suspecting a revolution that would create a United States of America with a literature of its own. American Indians, explorers, Puritan ministers, frontier wives, plantation owners — they are all the creators of the first American literature. |
A:Before the American natives lived there. B:When Columbus and other explorers gent reports back home. C:When the Northmen found America in about year 1,000. D:Long before the year 1,000.
