    The marathon is the longest race at the Olympics．You have to be a very strong runner to win the marathon．The marathon is 42.195 km long．Why is it 42.195 km and not 43? The 1908 Olympics was in London．The King of England wanted his children to watch the marathon so the race started at the gate of his palace．From there to the finish line was 42.195 km．One of the best marathon runners was Abebe Bikila．He was from Ethiopia．He won the gold medal in the marathon at the 1960 0lympics．He rail the whole race without shoes on!

    A rich (富有的) man and a poor (穷的) musician (音乐家) lived in the same house. The rich man lived upstairs (楼上)and the poor musician lived downstairs (楼下). The musician liked to sing. But the rich man didn't like to sing, and he liked to sleep.

    One day, the rich man said to him, I'll give you a bag of money every day if (假如) you stop singing.

    “Fine,” said the musician. So he stopped singing and became a rich man, too. But he wasn't happy, because he wanted to sing again.

    At last (最后), the poor musician said to the rich man, “Here's your money.

    Get it back. I don't want your money, and I want to sing every day.” He started to sing again and he was happy again.
