A)
If foxes, like women, had a vote, I think they would vote unanimously for the keeping up of fox-hunting because I have known a fox that was absolutely devoted to fox-hunting and after we had hunted him many years I regret to say that we killed him.
B)
The argument that supports the view that a hunter is not an animal-killer but he is a devoted lover of the nature around him is hard to accept as it is the natural habitat that he is destroying.
C)
It may be that hunters keep the number of harmful animals like foxes under constant control so that they will not give much harm to farms and crops.

C)
It is simply because you are not as good a mother as I am. D)
When they started biting people, I bit them back and they stopped; my son, when about five, threw his dinner on the floor and I tipped a plate of custard over him; he hasn’t thrown any food about since.

The Six Million Dollar Man (on Thames television) has acquired a steady girlfriend, called Bionic Woman. Since either of them, in a careless moment, would be capable of pushing over a building with one hand, the question arises of how they manage their love life. Although a fairly steady follower of Six’s adventures, I long ago forgot which bits of him have been replaced with high-performance hardware. The eyes and legs for certain, and at least one arm. It would be rude to speculate whether the more intimate sections of his bodily fabric are similarly crammed with transistors and solenoids. The same inhibition applies to discussing some of the attributes of Bionic Woman. but even granting that the two lovers remain organic in those areas, they would still surely be capable of doing each other fearful damage in spasms of rapture. Six can carve a doorway through a brick wall with his index finger. Imagine what he could do with a single misplaced caress. He could break every circuit in her body. They’d be lying their in a heap of wires and a puddle of hydraulic fluid. (The Observer’da Clive James’in yazısı)

Six may well not be as strong as Bionic Woman. E)
