A Miss Green;

 Good morning,everybody!Today,for our writing class,we are glad to have Mr Henry Stone with us,a wellknown writer in this country. He is going to share with us his writing experiences. Now,Henry,please tell us how you find so many interesting things for your stories?

 Mr Stone:

Okay.  I watch people a lot.  I do that when I travel.  I've been to many countries such asBritain,ItalyandSweden,so I spend a lot of time at airports. While waiting for my flights,I watch people passing by and start my imagination. For example,the other day when I was waiting for my flight toGreece,I saw a couple.  They were buying magazines at that moment. They were not wearing business clothes but the man was carrying a suitcase. Every few seconds the woman looked around.  I wondered if someone was following them. Perhaps they were running away and .... You know,this reminded me of a story in the newspaper that day. A bank clerk stole one million pounds a week ago and disappeared with his wife. There was a picture of them in the paper.  The couple really looked like the thieves.  Maybe I should stop them. Just then,I saw them say goodbye to each other,and the woman walked away. Well,sometimes I make mistakes like that. But I find things like that very useful for my writing.
