Many people today like reading stories about UFO. Many people in different countries are studying the UFO.

There are some different sayings for UFO. Among those sayings, the most popular one for UFO is that UFOs are strange flying objects and they carry strange creatures to the earth from other stars. We can call them aliens.

UFO scientists and many people believed this saying. Some people said that they saw a few UFOs landing on the earth. They seemed to be objects rather like big plates. Some people said that they saw some strange visitors coming out of the UFOs.

Some people make mistakes when they say they have seen UFOs high in the sky. Perhaps they see a weather balloon or an uncommon plane or the light they see in the sky comes from the ground. Sometimes they see the light from the moon.

But these are a lot of others we can’t understand. It may take many years to find a clear answer and then the people will give UFO another name.

a woman was collecting money for a church charity. The money she collected was going to be given to poor children who had no parents to take care of them. She went from apartment to apartment and from house to house. She knocked on doors and asked for money. She always said the same thing. Good morning, I’m collecting for a church charity. Please give generously. We need $5,000. Then she held out a collecting box. Most people put a few coins in the box.

An artist lived in one of the apartments. He opened the door. “Good morning.” she said. “I’m collecting for a church charity. Please give generously. We need $5,000.” The artist thought for a moment, then he said, “I’m sorry, but I don’t have any money. However, I’ll give you a painting. It’s worth $ 400.” The woman thanked the artist and took the painting away.

A week later she called on him again. “I’m sorry to trouble you again,” she said, “but we still need more money. I need another $ 100. Can you help?” “Of course,” the artist said. “I’ll increase the value of my painting to $ 500.”

almost every family in America or England buys at least one copy of a newspaper each day. Some people buy as many as two or three different papers.

(1)         Newspapers supply us with news about events in our hometown, in our country, and in other parts of the world. Today we can read about important things that took place in foreign countries on the same day they happened, even in countries far away. (2)         In those times, news was often passed from one person to another and was never entirely true. Newspapers today supply us with more than just what happened in our country or in other countries. (3)          

if we want to find out what films are being shown, or what plays or concerts we can go to, we can look them up in newspapers.

In many countries people put notices in newspapers if they are trying to get a job, hunting for a house that they can rent, or even looking for a person who is lost.

(4)         For example, some made – up news harms people, especially famous people. So when we read the news, we should use our heads and shouldn’t believe all that in them.

Newspapers are not for the blind, for they have no sound. (5)          .
