  It was a market day (集市日) . A man stood behind his table and was selling nuts. He had many bags of nuts. Suddenly the man remembered something. “Today I must go to town. But who will sell these nuts for me?”

  “Peter, ” he turned to a boy and said, “will you help me sell these nuts?”“Yes, I' m glad to, ” answered the boy. “But for the first hour I want to get one nut. ”

  “Only one? This isn't much!”

  “And for the second hour the double of it, that is two nuts. ”

  “Just two? This isn't much, either. And for the third hour?”

  “Again the double, four nuts. And for every further hour you have to pay me twice the nuts for the preceding (在前的) hour. ”

  “This isn't much! ” said the man. “I will be back in five hours. Or maybe I' ll have to stay in town a bit longer. Now sit here with my nuts! ”

  The man went away. Five hours passed and still the man wasn't back. Soon it was getting dark. The boy didn't leave. He sat at the market for exactly 24 hours.

  The next morning the man came back. He said to Peter, “Give me your pocket! I' ll give you the nuts! ”“Into my pocket?” the boy laughed and then said, “The pocket is too small. You must give me a cartload (一车所载的量) of nuts . All these bags belong to (属于) me now. ” “What?”shouted the man. “You must be mad (疯的) . ”  But the boy was right. Do you know why?

                                                                       Tom:
     I have a friend who is from the UK. He smokes a lot every day. He'll be 40 this year and 4 years ago
 his doctor told him he wouldn't make it to 50. That's about when his daughter will graduate from high
 school. I hope he can give up smoking by that.
                                                                        Mary:
     Choosing to be a smoker isn't really a personal decision. Most smokers start smoking before they are
 18 years old, and most become addicted (上瘾的) after just a few cigarettes. I think we should stop
 factories from producing cigarettes.
                                                                        Lucy:
     I'm 17 now. I don't think I will smoke in the future. Sometimes I also try to stop my father from smoking.
  Smoking is very harmful to our health and can drive people to death. Let's do something right now in our
 own families.
                                                                        Peter:
     Smoking causes millions of young deaths and affects (影响) everyone's heath. It's high time to stop this,
 but I'm afraid smokers won't like to stop, even though they know it's harmful.
