The Best Salesman in the World
Salesman(售货员)manager(经理)Sell (出售) sold (sell的过去式)bought( buy的过去式) prove (证明)
Harry wants to be a great salesman, so he goes to a building and speaks to the manager. “I’m the best salesman in the world,” he says, “Give me a job as a salesman.”
“You must prove you’re the best,” the manager says. The manager takes a box of candy out of his desk. “Last week, I bought 1,000 boxes of this candy. If you can sell them all before the end of the week, you can have the job.”
“That’s very easy,” Harry says.
He takes the box of candy and leaves the office. Every day and all day he goes from shop to shop, trying to sell boxes of the candy, but he can’t sell one. The candy is so bad that he can’t even give it away.
At the end of the week he goes back to the manager. “I’m sorry, sir,” he says, “I am wrong about myself. I’m not the best salesman in the world, but I know who is.” “Oh, who?” the manager asks.
“The person who sold you 1,000 boxes of this candy.”

check(检查) factory(工厂) print(印刷)
In our country every school has a library. I’m sure you have read many books. You borrow them from the school library and keep them for some days. Maybe you borrow books from other libraries, or you get books from your parents of friends as a present. If you like reading and want to learn more, you may often go to bookshops and but some yourself.
Do you know how people make a book? Different people must check it several times before it comes out. After finishing reading a book, the book passes through the hands of many other people. Everyone in the factory has to work very carefully because there must not be any mistake in it. Many people are busy working on it. They print it on good paper and put the pieces together before it goes to the bookshop.
We all like reading. Let’s take good care of books.

Many people like to watch TV. Watching TV is one of the most important activities(活动) of the day. TV brings the outside closer to people’s home. Some people say the world is smaller than before because of TV.
What’s going on in the other countries? How do people live in places far away? Is there a good sports game somewhere? What’s life in the deepest part of the sea?
If you want to answer these and other kinds of questions, just turn on the TV. Turn it on and watch. You can see a lot and learn a lot. Of course, people can also learn through reading or listening to the radio. But with TV they can learn better and more easily. Why? Because they can hear and watch, too.
