Tom walked into a shop. It had a sign outside: “Second-hand (旧的）clothes bought and sold.” He was carrying an old pair of trousers and asked the owner of the shop, “How much will you give me for these?” The man looked at them and then said,“Two dollars. ”

  “What?!” said Tom. “I thought they were worth at least five dollars.”

  “No,” said the man “They aren't worth a cent more than two dollars.”

  “Well,” said Toni, taking two dollars out of his pocket. “Here's your money. These trousers were hanging outside your shop. The list price (标价）of them was six dollars and a half. But I thought that was too much money, so I wanted to find out how much they were really worth.”

    Then he walked out of the shop with the pair of trousers and disappeared before the shop owner could think of anything to say.

    Sandwiches are delicious, but do you know how the first sandwich came? An English earl(伯爵)called John Montagu made it three hundred years ago. Montagu was interested in card games. He would play these games with his friends for a long time. He found it too boring to stop his games for meals.

    One day, in the middle of a game, Montagu was served a meal of sliced meat with bread. At that time, Montagu was playing the game that needed its players to cover one card over another. As Montagu looked at both the game and his food, an idea came to his mind.

    He took a piece of bread, put a piece of meat on it and covered that with another piece of bread. Then Montagu could play cards with one hand and eat his meal with another.

    Montagu's friends called the new meal sandwich because Montagu's full title was “the Earl of Sandwich”.
