Marco Polo was born in Italy in 1254. When he was 17, he traveled along the Silk Road with his father, who wanted to trade with the Chinese. Finally, they arrived in Beijing. They were guests at the Emperor s Palace. 1.. The Emperor was impressed by him and they became friends. He asked Marco to serve in his court (宫殿) and sent him to do many important jobs all over the country. 2. . He was impressed by Beijing and the Emperor’s Palace, especially the Summer Palace which was described as “The greatest palace that I’ve ever seen”. The walls were covered with gold and silver and the hall was so big that it could easily hold 6,000 people for dinner.

3. . Marco was surprised to see Chinese people using paper money in the markets. In Europe, people paid for goods (货物) with gold and silver. He could not understand how people paid for food and valuable things with paper! He was also puzzled by the black stones people used to burn to produce heat.

When you want to go shopping, decide how much money you can spend on new clothes. Think about the kind of clothes you really need. Then look for those clothes on sale.

If you do as the directions say on the label, you can keep your clothes looking their best. Many clothes today must be dry－cleaned. Dry－cleaning is expensive. When buying new clothes, check to see if they will need to be dry－cleaned. You will save money if you buy clothes that can be washed.

Today, an increasing number of people are always looking at their mobile phones with their heads down. These people are called the “Heads-down Tribe(低头族)”. Are you a heads-down tribe member? Heads-down tribe members now can be seen everywhere.

More and more traffic accidents are happening because drivers use mobile phones when they are driving. In order to make drivers pay more attention to driving, some new traffic rules have been made. For example, heads-down tribe members who use mobile phones while driving will be fined ¥200.

As we can see above, using mobile phones may cause accidents and even cost money. Besides, more and more interesting things happen to the “Heads-down Tribe”.

When he lifted his eyes from the phone, he was so scared that he ran away as quickly as possible.
