Canadian Geese are large blue and white birds. When autumn comes, they have to fly south where the weather is warmer. The winters are so cold in Canada that the birds will die if they stay there.

Last spring, Bill Lishman found sixteen young Canadian Geese on his farm. They had lost their parents. Bill thought, "These young birds won't know what to do in the autumn." He had a small plane and he decided to teach the birds to follow him. All through the summer, he went on short trips in his plane and the young geese flew after him.

When the cold weather arrived in the autumn, Bill flew to Virginia in the United States, 600 miles south of his home in Canada. The geese followed him all the way. Bill left the geese in Virginia and he returned home.

This spring, Bill was waiting for the birds to come back. They didn't arrive, so Bill flew to Virginia to get them. He looked for them for two weeks, but he couldn't find them. When he arrived back home, he found the geese waiting for him. They had found their way home without him!

（2）、Where did Bill find sixteen young geese last spring?

（3）、Is it 600 kilometers from Bill's home to Virginia?

（4）、How long did it take Bill to look for the geese in Virginia?

    Fred, a young man of twenty-five, was a clever boy. He worked in a factory after he finished high school six years ago. At first, he spent much time in studying all the machines(机械) in the factory and learned to repair them. His boss(老板) Mr. Dick liked the clever young man and paid him more than any other worker.
    Another four years later, the young man got into the habit of drinking and was often drunk. He couldn't go to work on time and didn't work so hard as before. Sometimes he slept when he was at work. It made Mr. Dick angry and Mr. Dick told him not to drink, and he agreed but soon forgot it. His friend Henry often helped him and tried to stop him from drinking, but he failed.
    And one afternoon, something was wrong with an expensive machine. The work had to stop. Fred was found in a bar(酒吧) but he was drunk. He broke the machine when repairing it. Henry had to take him home.
  The next morning, as soon as he got up, the telephone rang and Henry said, "Two pieces of news for you, Fred. One piece is good and the other is bad."
   "Tell me the good one first, please," said Fred. "You'll be given double(双倍) pay next month." "Oh, great!" called out Fred. "What is the bad news?" "Mr. Dick told me to take your place."

Once there were two mice. They were friends. One mouse lived in the country; the other mouse lived in the city. After many years the Country mouse saw the City mouse; he said, "Do come and see me at my house in the country." So the City mouse went. The City mouse said, "This food is not good, and your house is not good. Why do you live in a hole in the field? You should come and live in the city. You would live in a nice house made of stone. You would have nice food to eat. You must come and see me at my house in the city."

The Country mouse went to the house of the City mouse. It was a very good house. Nice food was set ready for them to eat. But just as they began to eat they heard a great noise. The City mouse cried, " Run! Run! The cat is coming!" They ran away quickly and hid.

After some time they came out. When they came out, the Country mouse said, "I do not like living in the city. I like living in my hole in the field. For it is nicer to be poor and happy, than to be rich and afraid."

Marco Polo was born in Italy in 1254. When he was 17, he travelled across Europe and Asia with his father, who wanted to do trade with the Chinese. Finally they arrived in Beijing. They were guests at the Emperor^ Palace. Although Marco Polo was young, he was very clever and could speak some foreign languages. The Emperor was impressed by him. He asked Marco Polo to serve in his court (宫廷) and sent him to do many important tasks across the country.

Marco Polo was amazed by the beautiful China. He was impressed by Beijing and the Emperor's Palace, especially the Summer Palace which he described as "The greatest palace that ever was..." The walls were covered with gold and silver and the hall was so large that it could easily seat 6,000 people for dinner.

There were inventions and developments in China which were not used in Europe at that time. He was puzzled (困惑的) by the black stones people used to bum to produce heat. The black stones were coal, but Marco Polo had never seen coal before!

In 1295, after 17 years of service to the Emperor, Marco Polo returned to Italy. He was then a very wealthy man. A writer wrote down the stories that Marco Polo told him in a book called The Travels of Marco Polo.

Although people enjoyed reading the book, many of them thought that Marco Polo's stories about China were too fantastic to be true. But Marco Polo always stood by his tales. Just before he died in 1324, Marco Polo was asked the question, "Were they all true?" And this was his answer, "I have only told half of what I saw!"
