My name is Trump. Working as a living statue（ 雕塑） or a street statue, I can make money and watch the world at the same time. You must be strong because it's not easy to stay still（静止的）for hours and hours. I usually work for two places, two hours a place, then I go and find a new place.

In the photo, I'm working in the street. I get dressed as a gentleman. I'm sitting on a bench（ 长椅）. There's a small box beside the bench.

People usually watch me for a few minutes and then put some money in  the box. But some people don't give me money. They touch me or talk to me. I ignore（不理睬） them, but sometimes I want to laugh.

I work not only in the street, also in restaurants and cafe. I sit at a table like a customer or stand like a waiter. I work for birthday parties, too.

My job is interesting because I often look different. But I don't always want to be a street statue. Instead, I dream to be an actor someday.

A new study shows a typical（ 典型的） family in the U. K is a father, mother, and two children. They live in a house, not an apartment（公寓）. Both parents work outside the home. They spend about ￡76 on groceries（杂货店）each week, and they have a pet. Almost 63% of sons and 55% of daughters aged 20-24 still live at home with their parents.

A typical British family wakes up at 6: 57.They eat breakfast together only two times a week. The parents drive to  work. They each have a car. They get home from work at 5: 15 and have dinner   at 5: 54. Because of their busy lives, they eat dinner together at home only three times a week. They go out to eat two times a month. On Mondays, they usually eat spaghetti bolognese（肉酱面）. On Fridays, they bring home fish and chips from a chip shop. After dinner, they watch TV for a total of （总共）nine hours each week. They go to bed at 10: 39.

The family exercises 2. 5 times a week, and does housework for 4. 5 hours. The mother  does most of the housework. They wash 5.3 loads（堆）of clothes a week.

About 70% of British families feel they are norma（l  正常的）. Yet, is a typical British family

happy? In short, yes. And over 80% say they are "happy or very happy." However, they usually argue two times a week!

Long long ago, there was a clever monkey. He lived in an apple tree on a beautiful island.

One day, a crocodile（鳄鱼）swam to the island. "I'm hungry," he said.So the monkey threw（扔）a red apple to the crocodile. The crocodile munched （ 咀 嚼 ） and munched. The next day, the crocodile came back.

"Please, may I have two apples?" he asked. He ate one and gave one to his wife.

The crocodile went to see the monkey every day to listen to his stories and eat his apples.

He wanted to be clever just like the monkey. The crocodile's wife had a thought（主意）. "Why don't you eat his heart（心）? Then you can be clever, just like him!"

The next day, the crocodile said to the monkey, "Come to my house！ We'll have lunch together to thank you for the apples."

But when the monkey arrived, the crocodile said, "Monkey! I want to eat your heart so I  can be as clever as you!"

The clever monkey thought quickly and said, "My heart isn't here. It's in my apple tree." They went back to the island. "Wait here and I will get my heart," the monkey said.

The monkey quickly climbed the tree and sat at the top. "Oh, crocodile. You are too greedy（贪婪的）. Of course you can't have my heart. And now you can't have my apples either!" The clever monkey laughed and laughed！
