Nick had a book in his hand and tears in his eyes. "What worries you, Nick?" asked Mrs. White. 

"Our teacher asked us to recite the p  Little Jim. I don't think I can do it well." said Nick. 

"Why not?" asked Mrs. White. 

"My classmates said that I can't. And I myself also think so," said Nick  a sad voice, "The poem is so long and difficult for me."

"Dear son," said Mrs. White, "look at that snail(蜗牛) on the wall.  slow it is! watch it. You will see it get to the highest part at last. So just try a few lines each day, and you may recite it in the end."

"Well, then let me try  best to recite it, Mom." said Nick. 

And he tried it. 

At last, the day came. To everyone' surprise, Nick did not m  a word when reciting the poem to the class. And the teacher said Nick did best. 

"And now tell us how you could recite the poem so well." said the teacher. 

"I saw a snail climb up the wall little by little. It  stop. At last, it arrived at the highest part. So I also recited the poem little by little, and did not give up." said Nick. 

"Well done, Nick!" said the teacher. "Now boys and girls, let us give a good c  to Nick and the snail on the wall." The classroom rang with a great cheer.

    Have you ever ridden a Ferris wheel lately? Can you imagine the flying feeling as you are pulled up to the top and then moved down to the bottom quickly again?

    Today a Ferris wheel is usually 40 to 60 feet tall. That seems very high when you are on the top looking down. But the first Ferris wheel was 264 feet high- taller than a twenty-story building! Can you imagine the view from the top of that?

    The first Ferris wheel was built for the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago. The people who planned the fair were looking for an attraction that would bring people to Chicago. George Ferris handed a drawing of a giant wheel that people could ride on. At first everyone laughed at his strange idea. But Mr Ferris did not give up, and finally the idea was accepted. The ride opened in June of 1893.

    Today's Ferris wheels have 12 to 16 seats, which each carry 2 or 3 people. But that first one had 36 enclosed cars, each holding 60 passengers. When filled, it carried 2,160 people. During that summer in Chicago, about 1.5 million people rode the Ferris wheel.

After the fair, the ride was moved to a nearby amusement park built especially to show off the wheel. In 1904, it was moved again一to St. Louis for the Louisiana Purchase Exposition. After the fair there, the wheel stood unused. In 1906, it was finally sold to a company for scrap metal(废金属).

    Luckily a Chicago bridge builder, W.E. Sullivan, figured out how to make a smaller Ferris wheel that could easily be taken apart and put together. In 1906, he started the company that still makes many of the Ferris wheels used today.

    But, whenever you ride one, remember that it all began with George Ferris's strange idea!
