  Alan Chang was a handsome young man with good manners(举止).

  One morning he was walking along a street on his way to an appointment(约会). He did not want to be early or late. He had forgotten to bring his watch so he went up to a man who was waiting for a taxi.

  “Excuse me, sir,” he said, very politely, “but could you tell me the time?” The man, who was very well-dressed and looked quite rich, said nothing. He did not even look at Alan. Alan spoke to him again. “Excuse me, sir,” he said, “but could you please tell me what time it is?”

  This time the man looked at him, but he did not speak and looked quickly away. Alan thought to himself: Well, he's not deaf. He must be just rude(无礼). “Why won't you tell me the time, sir?” he said again.

  The man turned towards him and said, “Try to understand me. I am standing here waiting for a taxi. You come up to me and ask me for the time. If I tell it to you, you will thank me. I will say, ‘That's all right.’ You may then say, ‘It's a beautiful day.’ To which I may say, ‘Yes, I like these sunny winter days.’ Before we know what is happening we have a friendly talk. You are a polite young man and so when my taxi comes, I offer you a ride. You accept.

  “We talk. I like you. You like me. I ask you to my house. You meet my daughter. She is a very nice girl. You are a good-looking man. You like each other. Soon you fall in love. You want to marry(结婚). And I do not want my daughter to marry a man who is too poor to buy a watch. Now do you understand my problem?”

  Last Sunday the elephant keeper at London Zoo, Jim Robson, was killed by one of the elephants he loved. This was terrible, and it could be a big problem for the future of London Zoo-and maybe for all of Britain's city zoos.

  London Zoo said that it would move its three elephants to a wild animal park outside London. Its director general (总经理), Michael Dixon, said, “We are sorry that the elephants are leaving; there have been elephants at London Zoo since 1931.”

  One British newspaper said that though many small animals were very interesting, most people wanted to see big animals-and most of all elephants.

  London Zoo is not only losing its elephants. The tigers will also leave soon and most of the bears have already gone. Outside the elephant house at London Zoo, a woman called Mary said she hoped the zoo could keep big animals. “This is the only way the young people can see animals without traveling to other countries,” she said.

  Zoos are not very good places for animals, but they can help to keep them well, Children can also learn a lot about the animals when they visit zoos.

  Another visitor, a man called Alan, was very angry. “If we send them back to the wild they will die. If you take away big animals, people will stop visiting London Zoo. It can survive (继续生存) at the moment, but it won't survive in the future.”

  However, Mary Rosevear, director of the Federation (联合会) of zoos, believes that city zoos can survive without keeping large animals.
