     Early one morning, an old woman was carrying a big basket of potatoes on her head to the market. She hoped to1them to the people from town.

     The mountain road was narrow and the old woman was walking 2, because she did not want to have 3and lose her potatoes.

     Suddenly she 4 a loud bell, and a bicycle came round the corner.

     It passed her and went very fast 5the hill. The old woman had to jump to one side of the 6 so quickly that the basket of potatoes nearly fell into the valley.

     She looked up and saw that a young boy was on the bicycle. He was 7 on without even 8 round to see whether the old woman was all right. The old woman began to shout,“Come back, young man! You dropped something!”

     When he heard this, the boy stopped the bicycle so suddenly that he nearly fell off .

     Then he turned and began to 9the bicycle back up to the hill.“What is it?”he asked,“What did I drop?”“Little boy,”the old noman answered, “you dropped your 10.”

Jim went to school to study history, but when he finished his first year, he didn't pass the exam and the teacher said to him, “You have to leave school.”

When the boy's father heard this news, he was much worried. He came to the school to see the teacher. He found the teacher in the office and asked the teacher to let Jim go on with his studies the next year.

“He is a good boy. He always does well in history,” said Jim's father, “and if you let him pass the exam this time, he will do better next year and pass the exam.”

 “No, no, that's impossible!” answered the teacher, “Last month I asked him when Napoleon（拿破仑）died and he didn't know.”

“Please sir, give him another chance.” said Jim's father, “You know we don't have any newspapers in our house, so nobody in our family knew that Mr. Napoleon was ill.”

    When we travel from one country to another, we find people have quite different feelings about food. People often feel what they eat is normal, and what other people eat is strange or silly. In most part of Asia, for example, people like rice and meat. In England, people eat potatoes every day. In the Middle East, bread is the main part of every meal. Eating, like so many things we do, becomes a habit which is difficult to change. Americans like to drink a lot of orange juice and coffee. The English drink tea four or five times every day. Australians drink a great deal of beer, and the French drink wine every day.

The sort of meat people like to eat is also different from one country to another. Horse meat is thought to be delicious in France. In Hong Kong, some people enjoy eating snakes. New Zealanders eat sheep, but they never eat goat meat. The Japanese don't like to eat sheep meat because of its smell, but they enjoy eating uncooked fish.

    People everywhere enjoy eating what they have always eaten, and there is very little we can do to change our eating habits.

    Billy lived on a quiet street in a big city. His mother sometimes took him to the park, but when she was busy, he played in the street alone.

    One evening, Billy's father gave him a beautiful new ball, and the next morning Billy went out into the street to play the ball.

    He played by himself for a few minutes, and then a big dog came along. The dog wanted to play the ball, too.

    Billy picked the ball up and held it above his head. He did not want the big dog to take it and ran away, but the dog jumped up and knocked him over.

    Billy's mother came out of the house and ran to him at once, “Did he bite (咬）you?” she asked.

    “No, he didn't bite me,” Billy answered, “but he tasted me.”
