四级练习2011.12.15

Nothing is satisfactory to everybody.But during the administration of President Ford he offered one on national television.(1)_______________________.The words were not new, but they spread across the country.Mr. Ford called on Americans “to bite the bullet” and make personal sacrifices. This, he said, would help to halt inflation.He urged them to eat less, uses less gasoline, to spend less and save more.He appealed to them to do whatever was necessary to fight inflation,no matter how unpleasant.(2)_______________________.But what does biting the bullet have to do with all this?It is a reasonable question. This is the explanation.As we all know, people in great pain sometimes tighter their fists,or clench their teeth, or bite down hard on a finger.It seems to ease the pain. (3)_______________________.And it is said that during emergency operations,soldiers would bite a bullet to ease their suffering.This old phrase came back to life in the 1960s.Former president Nixcon used it in 1968.He asked congress to bite the bullet and approve of his proposal for a taxi increase.
