Two friends are sitting in the pub watching the eleven o'clock news. A report comes on about a man threaten to jump from the 20th floor of a downtown building. One friend turns the other and says， \"I'll bet (打賭) you ten dollars the guy don't jump.\" \"It's a bet，\" (賭就賭) agrees his friend. A few minutes late， the man on the building jumps， the loser hands his friend a $10 bill. \"I can't take your moneys，\" his friend admits. \"I saw him jump in earlier on the six o'clock news. ' \"Me too， but I don't think he'd do it again!\"

A lady once wrote a long story and sent to a famous editor.

In a few weeks the story was returned to her. The lady got angrily. She wrote to the editor. \"Dear sir， yesterday you sent back the story of mine. How do you know why the story is no good? You did not read it. After I sent it to you， I pasted (粘) together page 18， 19 or 20. This was a test to see whether you would truly read the story.When it came back yesterday， the pages still pasted together.

Is this the way where you read all the stories that are sent to you?\" The editor wrote back， \"Dear madam， at breakfast when I open an egg， I don't have to eat all the egg in order to discover that it is bad.\"

Dear Mr. Anderson，

I'm not sure whether you can remember me， and we met in Bethany last year. It was at your daughter wedding. You and me had a pleasant talk and I told you a little about my job as reporter for New York Times. At that time， I do like to stay in New York， but now I'd like to get a job back in my native town.My problem is that have been away now for such a longer time that I have not any job contact (關(guān)系) in Bethany. That's why I'm writing for you. I would be very thanks if you could help or advise me.

Sincerely，

Patrick Neal

Now satellites are helped to forecast (預(yù)報) the weather. They are in the space and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take photos for the atmosphere because weather formed there. They send their photos to the weather station. But scientists can see the weather of any part of the world.

Today nearly five hundreds weather stations in sixty countries accept satellite photos. Scientists compare the new ones from the earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have been changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change too.

They call New York \"the Big Apple\". Maybe it is not exactly like an apple， but it's certainly very big.

There are too many people， that's the problem.

The streets are always full of cars or trucks， and you can never find out a place to park.

If you have enough money， you can take taxi. New York cabs (出租車) are yellow. They all look the same.

If you won't want to take a taxi， you can go by bus or you can take subway (地鐵)， that is quick

and cheap， but parts of it is old and dirty.

People are afraid in the New York subway. On any day of the weeks， there are nearly 40 crimes (犯罪). There are also many people in the subway who are drinking or sick or very poor. For a long time， the subway has been a sad and dangerous place. But now it is changing.

New York is working hard to make its subway clean and safe.
