31、 is a beach in Fort Bragg, California, which is known for the colourful sea glass. It was a dump （垃圾場）until the 1960s. Glass Beach saw large cleanup projects in the late 1990s and early 2000s, but the glass from bottles and other things remained, worn smooth over time.Glass Beach is one of Mendocino

39、hat in some of his classes, most of the students were missing most of their schoolwork. I asked him about this.There's really not much I can do about it. I give schoolwork, collect it, grade it and post the scores on line. Some kids just don't turn in their work. Other than giving them an F,
