In the Warring States Period， Lin Xiangru， chief min-ister of the State of Zhao， was sent as an envoy to the State of Qin to ask the ruler of Qin to return a fine piece of jade to Zhao.
But the ruler of Qin was rude and unreasonable. Lin was angry， and his hair stood up so stiffly
on his head that it lifted up his hat.
后来人们用“怒发冲冠”这个成语形容人愤怒到了极点。
This idiom came to be used to mean being extremely angry.作者: Jackywu 时间: 2012-11-20 09:54
成人学英语，最大的问题就是不稳定。一但家中有事，加班，应酬等等，学习就被开销掉了。
成人要学好英语，最主要的就是付出，你的时间和你的坚持。
成人学英语的误区，总想找名师，超前消费，有些英语0基础的人还要找外教。
成人学英语， 不可能三两天就学成，也不是三两个月就能见成绩，坚守得住。
但现实世界，没几个人能做到这些。

Hercules, once journeying along a narrow roadway, came across a strange-looking animal that reared its head and threatened him. Nothing daunted, the hero gave him a few lusty blows with his club, and thought to have gone on his way. The monster, however, much to the astonishment of Hercules, was now three times as big as it was before, and of a still more threatening aspect. He thereupon redoubled his blows and laid about him fast and furiously; but the harder and quicker the strokes of the club, the bigger and more frightful grew the monster, and now completely filled up the road. Pallas then appeared upon the scene. "Stop, Hercules," said she. "Cease your blows. The monster's name is Strife. Let it alone, and it will soon become as little as it was at first."

A FATHER had one son and one daughter, the former remarkable for his good looks, the latter for her extraordinary ugliness. While they were playing one day as children, they happened by chance to look together into a mirror that was placed on their mother's chair. The boy congratulated himself on his good looks; the girl grew angry, and could not bear the self-praises of her Brother, interpreting all he said (and how could she do otherwise?) into reflection on herself. She ran off to her father. to be avenged on her Brother, and spitefully accused him of having, as a boy, made use of that which belonged only to girls. The father embraced them both, and bestowing his kisses and affection impartially on each, said, "I wish you both would look into the mirror every day: you, my son, that you may not spoil your beauty by evil conduct; and you, my daughter, that you may make up for your lack of beauty by your virtues."
