It contained 50 pounds."I found this outside this gentleman's room."shesaid. "well"i said to the manager "there is still some honesty in this world." |

L 25Do English speak English Iarrived in London at last. Therailway station was big,black and dark.I didn't know the way to my hotel,so I asked a porter.I not only spoke English very carefully ,but very clearly as well.The porter however,could not understand me.So i repeated it several times and at last he understood. He answered me.but he spoke neither slowly nor clearly."I'm a foreigner."I said.Then he speak slowly,but i could not understand him.My teacher never sppke English like that.The porter and i looked at each other and smiled.Then he said something and i understood it. "you will soon learn English!"hesaid.I wonder ,in England each person speaks a different language.The English understand each other,but i don't t understand them! Do they speak English? |
| Iam an art student and i paint alot of pictures.Many people pretend that they understand modern art.They always tell you what a picture is "about".Of course,many pictures are not "about"anything.They are just pretty patterns.We like them in the same way that we like pretty curtain material.I think that young children oftern appreciate modern pictures than anyone else.They notice more.My sister is only seven,but he alwaystells me whether my pictures are good or not.She came into my room yesterday."what are you doing?"she asked."I'm hanging this picture on the wall."I answered."It's a new one,do you like it?"She looked at it critically for a moment."it's all right."she said"but is it upside down?"I looked at it again.she is right! it was! |

| The wayle is small river that cut across the park near my home.I like sitting by the wayle on fine afternoon.It was warm last sunday,so i went and sat on the river bank as usual.Some children were playing games on the bank and there were some people rowing on the river.Suddenly,one of the children kicked a ball very hard and it went towards a passing boat.Some people on the bank called out to the man in the boat,but he didn't hear them.The ball struck him so hard that he nearly fell into the water.I turned look at the children ,but they weren't in sight.They had all run away.The man laughed when he realized what had happened .He called out the children and threw the ball back to the bank. |
| Yesterday afternoon Frank Hawkins was telling me about his experiences as a young man.Before he retired,Frank was the head of a very large business company,but as a boy, he used to work in a small shop.It was his job to repair bicycles and at that time he used to work fourteen hours a day.He saved money for years and in 1958 he bought a small workshop of his own.In his twenties he used to make spair parts for aeroplane.At that time he had two helpers.In a few years the small workshop had become a large factory which employed seven hundred and twen-eight people.Frank smiled when he remembered his hard early years and the long road to success.He was still smiling when the door open and his wife came in.She wanted him to repair their grandson's bicycle! |

| People are not so honest as they once were.Thetemptation to steal is greater than ever before-- especially in large shop.A detective recently watched a well-dress woman who always went into the store on Monday mornings. One Monday,there were fewer people in the shop than usuall when the woman came in.So it was easier for the detective to watch her.The woman first bought a few small articles.After a little time,the woman chose one of the most expensive dresses in the shop and handed to an assistant who wrapped it up for her as quickly as possible.The woman simply took the parcle and walked out the shop without paying.When the woman arrested the detective found out that the shop assistantwas her daughter.She "gave " her mother a free dress once a week! |

33out of darkness Nearly a week past before the girl was able to explain what had happened to her.One afternoon the girl set out from the coast in a small boat and was caught in a storm.Towards evening,the boat struck a rock and the girl jumped into the sea.Then she swam to the shore after spending the whole night in the water.During that time she covered a diatanceof eight miles.Early next morning ,she saw a light ahead.She knew she was near the shore because the light was high up on the cliffs.On arriving at the shore,the girl struggled up the cliff towards the light she had seen.That was all she remembered.When she woke up a day later,she found herself in hospital. |
