（一）
It’s interesting that the arrival of snow has a different effect on people in different countries.For some countries it is an important happening to celebrate each year,while for others it is a catastrophe or even a wonder.
There are countries between these two extremes that normally expect snow some time over the winter months,but never receive snow regularly or in the same quantities every year.Britain is one such country,for which the arrival of snow quite simply causes problems.Within hours of the first snowfall,however light,roads are locked,trains and buses stop in the middle of traffic.Normal communications are affected as well,telephone calls become difficult and the post immediately takes more time than usual.Almost within hours,there are also certain shortages —bread,vegetables and other things—not because all these things can no longer be produced or sent to shops,but mainly because people are frightened,and go out to store up these commodities (goods),“Just for fear that something bad should happen”．
Why then does snow have this effect?After all the Swiss,Austrians and Canadians don’t have such problems.It is simply because there is not enough planning and preparation.We need money to buy equipment to deal with snow and ice.To keep the roads clear,for example,requires snow­ploughs and machines to spread salt.The reason why a country like Britain does not buy snowploughs is that they are only used for a few days in any one year,and the money could be more useful in other things such as hospitals,education or helping the old.


另外两篇放不下了,待会儿发连接,三篇60分,快的话再加分

在不同的国家,大学的降临对人们有不同的影响,这很有趣.对于一些国家,这件事儿的发生对于庆祝每年都很重要,然而,对于其他一些国家,这就是灾难或者很大的惊愕咯.
有另外一些国家是处于这两种极端之间的,他们一般在一些时候在冬天里期盼大雪,但是从来都不回定时的没下雪或者下的学都同往年一样多.英国就是这样一个下雪仅仅会引起问题的国家.在下雪最初的几个小时内,无论多小的雪,路都会被堵塞,火车公车站都会原地停运.日常的通讯也会被影响,打电话很困难,邮政所需要的时间比以往都要长.即使在几个小时之内,都会有（物资）短缺：面包,蔬菜等其他东西.不是因为这些东西再不会被生产了或者会被送到商店了,主要的原因是人们被吓到了,大家都出去囤货了.“只是担心一些可怕的事情发生而已”.
为什么雪会有这样的影响?然而,瑞士,奥地利和加拿大人并没有这样的问题.这只是因为没有足够的计划和准备.我们需要钱买东西来对付大雪和冰霜的降临.比如,保持道路的清洁需要雪犁等其他工具来撒盐.像英国等这样的国家为什么不买雪犁的原因是因为一年中只有几天他们需要这些东西,钱应该被更好的用到比如医院,教育或者养老上.(这些应该没有什么错误了,同学,我们下课了,大下午的,有点热,我想休息咯,你另外两篇什么时候发啊?恐怕我等不了了,对不住啊)
