Tom and Bob came to London for their holidays. They came to a big hotel and lived in a room on the fortieth floor. One day they went to a park and came back to the hotel very late.
"I'm sorry," said the waiter of the hotel. "Our lift (电梯) doesn't work." Tom said, "We will have to walk up to our room. "
They began to walk to their room. They were very tired, so they told stories and sang songs to each other on their way to the room. When they came to the thirty ninth floor, Bob said, "Tom, I'll tell you a sad story. I left(留) our key in our room. "

Mr Smith is a fisherman. He lives in a village. Thirty years ago, his village was small. There were some old houses. At that time, there was not much food. There were no TVs or computers, either. But there was a lake in front of Mr Smith's house. Mr Smith usually went fishing with his father there. That had a lot of fun. Now, the village is big. There are many new and tall buildings. There are some supermarkets near his house, too. He often goes shopping there. Some people in his village like going to work by car, but Mr Smith always walks to work. He thinks that's interesting.
