An old man was in a bank. He was arguing    1 how much money he had in the bank.   2 he was arguing, a young man came into the bank and said to the old man, "I've just come from your son. He gave me a letter and this piece of silver for you."

    He then gave the silver to the old man. Because the old man had weak eyes-he asked the banker to read him his son's letter.

    The banker read," I have  3  you a piece of silver that weighs 4 kilos."

    The old man was very 4 and asked the banker to give him some dollars for his silver. But when the banker weighed the silver, he  5 that it weighed 5 kilos.

    "The old man will never know," he thought. So he only gave him dollars for 4 kilos of silver.

  Later the banker examined the silver  6  and discovered that it was not silver. It was tin(锡).   7 he ran after the old man and shouted, "You have  8  me. You gave me tin,   9  silver."

  The old man then asked the banker to weigh the piece of tin. It weighed 5 kilos.

  "I am not robbing you, "said the old man. "You are trying to rob me! The piece of silver I gave you 10 weighed 4 kilos!"

Three students talk about the most interesting museums they have ever been to.

Ken: The most interesting museum I've ever been to is the American Computer Museum. They have i{#blank#}1{#/blank#} about different computers and who invented them. The old computers were much b{#blank#}2{#/blank#} than modern computers. It's unbelievable that technology has p{#blank#}3{#/blank#} in such a rapid way! I've also learned that there was a special computer. It could play chess even better than h{#blank#}4{#/blank#}. I wonder how much more computers will be able to do in the future.

Amy: I've recently been to a very u{#blank#}5{#/blank#} museum in India, the International Museum of Toilets. I just couldn't b{#blank#}6{#/blank#} my eyes when I saw so many different kinds of toilets there. The museum teaches people about the h{#blank#}7{#/blank#} and development of toilets. It also encourages governments and s{#blank#}8{#/blank#} groups to think about ways to improve toilets in the future.

Linlin: Last year I went to the Hangzhou National Tea Museum. It's a relaxing and peaceful place near a lake. The tea art performances show how to make a p{#blank#}9{#/blank#} cup of tea with beautiful tea sets. Watching the tea preparation is just as enjoyable as drinking the tea itself. I've finally realized why my grandpa loves drinking tea and c{#blank#}10{#/blank#} tea sets.
