Long long ago, people couldn't write and they had no books. But they had stories. People learned the stories by heart and taught new ones to one another. Sometimes it was hard to remember them all.1.

The ancient Egyptians wrote their stories on something made from papyrus(纸莎草)plants.

People in other places learned to use papyrus from the Egyptians.2.. So parchment(羊皮纸)later took its place.

In ancient China books looked a little different. People there used ink to write on bamboo or silk. And then they invented paper. Paper was easier and cheaper to make than papyrus and parchment. 3.Papermaking later spread to the West, but there was a big problem with these early books. Every single one had to be copied and written by hand.

4.They carved(雕刻)a page of words into a piece of wood or stone. They could then print the page by spreading ink on the wood or stone and putting it against paper. Many years later, books became faster and easier to make when a German printer invented movable, metal letters. The letters could be used to print copy after copy, and the letters put together again and again to print different pages of words.

5. Once a luxury(奢侈品)only the rich could buy, they soon became a treasure everyone could enjoy.

A. But papyrus grew mainly in Egypt.

B. Finally books could be printed by the thousands.

C. Its surface was smoother and better for writing on, too.

D. Things grew a little easier when writing was invented.

E. The Chinese were the first to think of a way to speed things up a little.

B

The day was like any other day in his life. Tom walked past the shop on the street corner. He stopped to look at the front row of shoes, and he felt happy to see that the pair of shoes he wanted very much was still there. Looking down, he felt sorry for himself. He really wanted to have them for his birthday.

He sadly walked away and thought how to tell his mother about it. He knew she would give him anything he liked if she could. But he also knew very well she had little money. He decided not to go home at once, as he looked worried and his mother would notice it. So he went to the park and sat on the grass.
