KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON

Kevin continues sleeping. The people on the train continue
reading. Another common expression which means almost the
same as carry on is go on. The alarm clock goes on ringing.
The man with the mobile phone goes on talking.
When I was 1) thinking about what to say in this podcast, I
2) did a Google search for carry on and found an interesting
story. In 3) 1939, at the outbreak of the Second World War, the
British government 4) printed millions of posters to send simple
propaganda messages to the people. The posters 5) appeared
on billboards and in shop windows and railway stations and
places like that. They tried to 6) encourage and cheer people in
the face of bombing raids, food rationing and other hardships.
However, one of the posters was never used. It was the poster
which would tell people what to do if the Germany army
actually invaded Britain. At the end of the war, the government
7) destroyed all the copies.
Well, not quite all, because in the year 2000 a secondhand book seller found a copy in a box of old books which he
had 8) bought. The poster said simply, Keep calm and carry
on. In other words, do not panic, carry on as normal go to
work, look after your families, and so on. This was the very
British message that our government wanted to send to the
people if our country was invaded.
Since it was rediscovered, the poster has 9) become very
popular. You can buy copies on line, and mugs and t-shirts with
the slogan Keep calm and carry on. Perhaps people feel that
this simple slogan means as much today as it did 70 years ago.
We have so many problems today economic crisis, 10)
environmental problems and wars in many parts of the world.
What can we do? Keep calm and carry on!
