Phone books have white,blue and yellow pages. The white pages list people with phones by last name. The blue pages contain numbers of city services,government services and public schools. Business and professional services are listed in a special directory-the Yellow pages.
The area covered by one area code may be small or large. For example,New York City has one code area,but so does the whole state of Oregon. There is an area code of the map of the US and Canada in the front of the white pages.
Pay phones have numbers in the US. This means you can call a friend at a phone booth (电话亭). Or if you are making a long distance call and run out of money,give the number on your phone to the person you're talking to. Then hang up the receiver and they can call you back.
If you make a long distance call and get a wrong number,call the operator and explain what happened.This means that you can make the call again to the right number without having to pay more money;or you can have the phone company mail you a credit coupon that has the same value as the phone call.
Some companies advertise a service called WATS. You can dial a special number without a long distance charge. These are called “toll-free numbers” and the area code for all of them is 800. WATS means Wide Area Telephone Service.

查看习题详情和答案>>My grandfather lived only half a mile away from where I grew up in New York. Every day, he would walk down to our house and bring my dad newspapers. Along with the papers he would bring a small bag of treats (美食) for my two brothers and me.
Western New York had terrible winter weather: rain, sleet (雨夹雪), or even 3 feet of snow. Even when he was 81, he still walked the half mile every single day. As a child, I looked forward to the daily treats, but now I’m older and I realize he braved the rough weather each day just to see us smile; I now value that more than anything else.
My grandfather touched many lives. A woman who had been in hospital for five years told me her story. She said my grandfather would visit her twice a week at her home: to read to her, play bridge, or just chat. It lasted for years without stop. She had few visitors. Even a hitch-hiker who my grandfather had picked up for free told me of my grandfather’s influence on his life. My grandfather took the traveler to his home. After learning that the man was homeless, my grandfather gave him a place to stay. The man told me that no one had ever been so nice to him. He later found a job in a supermarket.
I was touched, but not surprised to know all of the touching stories from which I understood my grandfather’s selflessness. I have since tried to learn from him to help others. Although he died years ago, we still respect him.
