　When I was lost in London, it had one of the thickest fog (雾) years. You could hardly see your hand in front of your face. Cars and buses ran very slowly with their lights on, and their horns (喇叭) made a terrible noise. When evening fell, it got even worse. All traffic (交通) came to a stop. Since I had an important meeting on the other side of town, I decided to walk.

　Minutes later I was lost. Then I heard a young woman's voice coming out of the fog. “ I think you are lost. Can I help you?” I couldn't see her clearly, but I was very glad to find another person out in the fog. I explained where I wanted to go and she said she knew very well how to get there.

　As I followed her through the dark streets, I wondered how she found her way without difficulty. “ I know this part of London quite well,”she answered.“ But in such a fog it's difficult to see anything,” I said.“With the fog or without the fog, it makes no difference (区别,不同)to me . You see.I'm blind, ” she answered.

　Our eating habits （习惯）are very important for good health and a strong body. There are times when most of us like eating sweets and ice-cream better than meat and rice. Sweets and ice-cream are not bad for us if we eat them at the end of a meal. If we eat them before a meal, they may take away our appetite(食)。It's important for us to eat our meal at regular （规律的）time each day. When we feel worried or excited, we may not want to eat. A long time ago, in England, some judges often decided whether a man was telling truth by giving him some dry bread. If the man could not swallow the bred, it meant that he wasn't telling the truth.
