There was a pilot and three people in a small plane. Suddenly there was something wrong with the plane when it was flying in the air. The smoke was everywhere in the plane. The pilot told the people there were only three parachutes(降落伞). They all became worried and started to make excuses. “I must go and mend the machine.” said the pilot, taking one of the parachutes. There was nothing he could do so he just jumped out. The next person said, “I must have a parachute. I am a very clever person, and I have to take part in an important sports game. I know I am going to win the game because I am going to be the cleverest person there.” He picked up a pack and jumped out. Two men were left(留了下来), an old businessman and a young mountain climber. By this time the plane was going down fast. The businessman said, “Young man, I am old but you’re still young.

All around the world, people drink tea. But tea doesn’t mean the same thing to everyone. In different countries people have different ideas about drinking tea. People in China like to drink tea with nothing in it, and they often have it with their friends or by themselves. They have two kinds of tea---green tea and black tea. They may drink tea at any time of the day anywhere. But they don’t often drink tea just before they go to bed, for tea makes them awake. In England, people like to drink tea with milk and sugar in it, and they often have it in the afternoon with their friends. In Japan, people also like drinking tea very much. It is very popular there. They drink tea every day. They have it in a way different from that in China. Some young Japanese girls are good at making tea. They can do it beautifully.
