hijack it. A person who hijacks a plane usually says he will blow up the plane if he does not get money.
Sometimes hijackers do not want money, however. They want other things. They some -times want their
friends let out of jail or to go to another country.
The first hijacking happened on 16 June 1948 on a plane traveling from Macau to Hong Kong. Some
men with guns told the pilot they wanted, money. The pilot fought them, but the h
ijackers shot him. The plane crashed into the sea, and nearly everyone in it died. Only one man lived. His name was Wong-yu
Man. When the police brought the plane out of the sea, they looked at it very carefully and found bullet
holes in the walls of the plane. They k
new then that there had been a hijack. A policeman sat near Wong-yu Man's bed in the hospital. Before long Wong-yu started to talk in his
sleep. "Where are my men?" he said. "Ar
e they all right
? Did they get the money?" The policeman wrote everything down. He knew Wong-yu's words meant something. He thought Wong-yu was one of the
hijackers. He was right. When Wong-yu came out of hospital, he went to jail for a long time.

“ Cool ” is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings.
“ Cool ” can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything.
When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say, “It’s cool . ” You may think, “He’s so cool，”when you see your favourite footballer.
We all maximize（扩大）the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words such as “ new ”or “ surprising ”. Here’s an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall （瀑布）they had visited. On one student’s paper was just the one sentence, “It’s so cool. ” Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.
But the story also shows a scarcity（缺乏）of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility （可信性）.

One day in Overtown, Florida, 3.7 million dollars fell from the sky! It happened when a truck turned over.There was money everywhere! One man said, “The streets were like gold.” Some people took off their shirts and filled them with money.
Police officers went from door to door in the neighborhood. They asked people to return the money. After six hours, the total returned: zero.
No one in Overtown was surprised. Many people in this town are poor. They need the money to buy food for their children. They think that God sent the money to them.

We spent a few days in Paris last week. We visit the famous city quite regularly. After all, it only takes three hours from London to Pairs. It’s always a pleasure visiting places we really like, exploring areas we’ve never been.
The only unlucky thing this time was the weather. As soon as we got there the temperature reached almost 35 degrees C (which lasted until we left). It was so hot that Matthew just couldn’t stand it — for him, it wasn’t the most enjoyable trip. I felt sorry for him because every time we go there he has to put up with (忍受) my endless shopping spree (狂欢) …
Because of the heat, we ended up just having lots of ice-cream and drinks most of the time, although we managed to pay a few visits to the new Herme shop on rue de Vaugirard at least. It’s not as busy as the shop on rue Bonaparte so you can choose whatever you like without worrying about a queue behind you! I really enjoyed his bread this time as well as the cakes. And I must say that his Croissant aux Amandes and Bostock were simply the best I’ve ever had.
