　　Mr. Green owned a few shops and was busy with his work．Once his wife had a fall and broke her leg．She was sent to the hospital and needed someone to look after her．They had several servants, but none of them could do the job．One of his friends brought a girl to Mr. Green．She looked beautiful and strong．Mr. Green liked her at once, and wanted to hire (fll^) her．

　　When the girl went out of the room, the friend said, "I hear she's a little foolish．You'd better ask her some questions．If she answers them well, you can hire her．"

　　Mr. Green agreed and called the girl in again．He asked, "What would you be a servant for?"

　　"My mother is often ill, " the girl said, crying, "I have to stop studying and find work．I want to get some money to buy some medicine for her．"

　　"Where's your father, then?"

　　"He died last year．" answered the girl．

　　"Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, " said Mr. Green, "And how did he die?"

　　"He went to London on business and had a high fever．The doctor couldn't save him and he died in the capital．"

　　"How many times had your father been to London?"

　　"Three times．"

　　Mr. Green was happy．He thought that the girl was not foolish at all, but he wanted to have a last try．So he asked, "Which of the three times did your father die in London?"

　　The girl thought for a while and said, "I'm sorry I don't know．When he died there, I was at school．"

　　Chocolate lovers know that eating chocolate can give them a feeling of happiness．Now it is known too that eating chocolate may also make people cleverer．

　　Dr．Bryan Raudenbush recently made a study to see if eating chocolate can make people cleverer．The U．S．scientist knew that chocolate had several stimulants (興奮劑)．But he was not sure how these stimulants did their job and thus made people clever．

　　To find out, Dr．Raudenbush gave the first group of people 85g of milk chocolate to eat and the second group ate no chocolate at all．After 15 minutes, he tested their memory, and he also tried to see if they were able to deal with problems right．

　　The first group had higher scores．They were able to remember more words and pictures than the second group, and they could solve (解決) problems much faster．Dr．Raudenbush then decided that the stimulants in chocolate could make people do things faster and better．And he suggested that if people wanted to do a better job, eating chocolate from time to time may be of help．

　　Of course eating chocolate can't make sure that you can study well without hard work．You'll still need to study hard to get good results．

　　Never try to do your homework when you are hungry．If you decide to do your homework right after school, you' d better get something to eat before getting to work．Always do your homework before you get too tired．Don't wait until very late in the evening, or your work will seem much harder than it really is．

　　If you have more than one hour's work, give yourself a break after an hour．On the other hand, don't rest too much or you can't get anything done．You should be able to work about half an hour at a time without stopping．

　　Don't wait to do your homework until the last minute．If you do like this, you will have it on your mind and you won't enjoy your free time so much．Finishing your everyday homework in time will be enough to follow what is going on in school and this will give you chance to do well in your exams．

　　Do your homework at the same time every evening．This will help you make it a habit．It will make it easier to do and it will make your free time more enjoyable．

　　Colors can be seen everywhere．We see them in the sky and in the sea．There are colors in rocks and in all plants and animals．Everything we see has colors．We see the colorful world．How can we see colors? We see colors when light hits our eyes．Dogs and many other animals can't see colors．But bees can．This helps them find flowers to fly to．

　　We sometimes use the means of colors to express our feelings．People may say that they see red when they are angry．Or you may say you feel blue．This means you are sad．We also use colors to tell us things．Red is the color of stopping signs．Green means that you can go．

　　Animals come in all kinds of colors．Many of these are very pretty．An animal's color may say "Here I am．" or "Watch out"．Or it may help the animal to hide．Some animals can make their colors similar to their surroundings (周圍的事物)．Then they can't be seen easily．

　　Some people can't tell one color from another．They can see yellow and blue．But they can't tell red from green．We say these people are color blind．

　　Happiness is for everyone．You don't need to care about the rich．Though they have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools, they may often feel lonely．

　　In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it．When you are in trouble at school, your teachers will help you; when you do something wrong, people around you feel unhappy; when you succeed in something, your friends will say congratulations to you．All these are your happiness．If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you．

　　Happiness is not the same as money．It is a feeling of your heart．Although you are poor, you can also say you are very happy．Money is not everything．You have something else that money can't buy．When you meet with difficulties, you can loudly say you are very happy because you have more chances to challenge yourself．So you can not always say you are poor and you have bad luck．If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person．

　The fisherman smiled and answered, "Oh, my frying pan is small．

　　Every day, it is easy to see advertisements in English all around us．Look at your own bags and clothes, and at the bags and clothes of your classmates．How many different advertisements can you see which use English words?

　　Often bags and clothes show the name of the company that made them．This is a popular form．A special picture or symbol called a logo(標識語)is sometimes used．Logos appear on many different products(產品)．They are popular because when you see a logo, it is hard to forget that product or company．

　　It is common to see advertisements on TV and hear them on the radio．Most advertisements are very short．Sometimes the advertisers use a short sentence which is easy for people to say and remember．Nike, for example, has a simple English sentence which is used all around the world：“Just do it．”Advertisements often use funny situations as well．It is simple to remember it．

　　All advertisements are designed(設計)to make people buy a product．An advertisement for a soft drink, for example, might show a group of young people who are having fun．The young people are al1 drinking the soft drink．Advertisers are saying to you, “Why don’t you buy this drink and be like these people?You can be young and modern”
