Good morning, boys and girls．My name is Frank Johnson．Now let me tell you something about our museum．To you maybe it's just four white walls and a ceiling（天花板），but to us it's a treasure．Here you'll see some of the best British physicists（物理学家）．For example，you'll see Newton，who was born in 1642．He went to study at college in 1661．During the years 1665—1666，he made his most important discoveries．It is said that Newton got Iris idea when an apple fell on his head!

Nearly 600 years ago in Beijing，some workers made an excellent bell（钟，铃）．It was 6.75 metres high，3.3 metres in diameter（直径）and 46.5 tons（吨）in weight．Its loud and clear sound could be heard 50 kilometres away at night when everything was quiet．Even now it would be very difficult to make such a wonderful bell．

But then there was a problem：how could they move it to the temple? The big bell was made in their factory：The temple was on the other side of the city．They had to move it through the streets across the city．At that time they had no machine to lift it or move it for such a long way．

Finally they had an idea：they dug（挖）a small river from their factory to the temple．Then they poured water into it．In winter the water in the small river froze to make an “ice road”．They tied thick wood to the bottom of the bell，pulled the bell to the ice and skated it along on top of the ice to the temple．

This wonderful bell，named the Yong Le Bell，is the largest one in China．Now it is stored in the Great Bell Temple in the west of Beijing．

Philip is a polite boy．At least his friends think so．

For example，one day on his way home，he ran into a woman who was crossing the road．“Oh，I'm sorry，” Philip's face turned red．“Please excuse me too，”said the woman．“I wasn’t watching for you．” Then they said good-bye to each other and went on their way．

Soon Philip forgot it．He was singing happily as he was walking．When he got home，his father opened the door for him as usual and helped him put down his school bag．When Philip turned，he nearly ran into his mother．She was standing behind him in order to pass him a cup of water．

“Move out of the way!” Philip said impatiently．Then he drank the water．His mother walked away．Philip didn't see the tears in her eyes．

Sometimes we act just like Philip．（    ）
