　　Our village carpenter(木匠)，John Hill，came one day and made a dining table for my wife．He made it just the right size to fill the space between the two windows．When I got home that evening，John was drinking a cup of tea and writing out his bill for the job．

　　My wife said to me，quietly，“That’s his ninth cup of tea today．”But she said，in a loud voice，“It’s a beautiful table，dear，isn’t it？”

　　“I’ll decide about that when I see the bill，”I said．

　　John laughed and gave me his bill for the work．I read：

　　One dining table　　　　　　　　　　　　10 November 1989

　　Cost of wood　　　　　　　　　　　　　￡20.00

　　Paint　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　3.00

　　Work，8 hours(2￡an hour)　　　　　　16.00

　　Total(合計(jì))　　　　　　　　　　　　　￡49.00

　　When I was looking at the bill，John said，“It’s been a fine day，hasn’t it？Quite sunny．”

　　“Yes，”I said．“I’m glad it’s only the 10th of November．”

　　“Me，too，”said John．“You wait—it’ll be a lot colder by the end of the month．”

　　“Yes．Colder—and more expensive！Dining tables will be￡20 more expensive on November 30th，won’t they，John？”

　　John looked hard at me for half a minute．Was there a little smile in his two blue eyes？I gave his bill back to him．

　　“If it isn’t too much trouble，John，”I said，“Please add it up again．You can forget the date．”

　　I paid him ￡39.00 and he was happy to get it．

　　I was getting fat．I work in an office and go there by car．I have good food，but I don’t do enough exercise…that’s how I get fat．My wife and I decided I had to do something about it．I don’t have much time for exercise because life is very busy．There are not many sports which you can play at home either．Table tennis would be fine，but we don’t have room large enough．Then I heard of a book of exercises for people like me．There are 5 different exercises．This is what you have to do．

　　1)Stand with your legs 15 centimeters apart．Point your arms above your head．Bend down to touch the ground between your feet．Reach up again and so on．(2 minutes)

　　2)Lie on your back，flat on the ground with your arms at your sides，sit up．Lie down again and so on．(1 minute)

　　3)Lie on your front．Join your hands behind your back．Lift your legs and shoulders as far off the ground as possible．(1 minute)

　　4)Lie on your front．Lift your body off the ground so that your arms are straight．Only your hands and toes touch the ground．(1 minute)

　　5)Running on the spot．Lift your feet 10 centimeters off the ground．(5 minutes)

　　Each of the exercises is done as many times as possible．The exercises get more difficult stage by stage．For women they are different. If you don’t get much exercise，you’ll enjoy them．

　　Popular music in America is what every student likes．Students carry small radios with earphones and listen to music before class，after class，and at lunch．Students with cars buy large speakers(揚(yáng)聲器)and play the music loudly as they drive on the street．

　　Adult(成年的)drivers listen to music on the car radio as they drive to work．They also listen to the news about sports，the weather and the life of American people．Most of the radio programs are music．

　　Pop or popular music singers make a lot of money．They make a CD or tape which radio stations use in many places．Once a popular singer is heard all over the country，young people buy his or her tape．Some of the money from these tapes comes to the singer．Wherever the singer goes，all the young people want to meet him or her．Now the singer has become a national star．

　　There are other kinds of music that are important to Americans．One is called folk(民間)music．It tells stories about the common life of Americans．Another is called western or country music．This was started by cowboys who would sing at night to the cows they were watching．Today，any music about country life and the love between a country boy and his girl is called western or country music．

　　Last week Fred had to go to New York．It was his first time there，and he didn't know his way around the city．He had a meeting at 10 o'clock，and he wanted to be on time．The meeting was in the Peterson Building on 34th Street，but Fred didn't know where that was．Seeing two men standing on a corner，he asked them．

　　“Excuse me，”he said，“but can you tell me how to get to the Peterson Building on 34th Street？”

　　“Sure，”answered one of them．“You can get there in five minutes．Go to the next corner and turn left．Walk three blocks(街區(qū))and there you are．”

　　But the other man said，“There's a better way．Go on the bus here at the corner．It stops right near the Peters Building．”

　　“Not Peters，”Fred told him，“Peterson．”

　　Then the first man said，“On，that's on East 34th Street，not West 34th．It's quite a distance(距離)from here．You will have to take the subway(地鐵)．”

　　But the second man told Fred，“No，don't go by subway．Take the cross town bus．It goes to the Peterkin Building．”

　　“Peterson．Not Peterkin，”Fred looked at his watch．It was almost ten o'clock．“Thanks a lot，”he said．“I think I'll take a taxi．”

　　When he got into the taxi，he saw the two men arguing(爭(zhēng)論)and pointing in different directions(方向)．Next time he wanted to know how to get to a place，he'd better ask a policeman！

　　This was one of my favorite games when I was a little girl．My sisters and I used to play it for hours at a time．

　　We had twenty-six small square pieces of cardboard．

　　On each of these we had printed an English letter．Before we started to play we decided what the game would be about．For example，we chose to play flowers．One of us would then mix up the cards and turn over one of them．If the letter on the card happened to be P we would try to think，as quickly as possible，of a flower which began with P，such as pansy or pink．The one who first gave the name of the flower received that card．This was done with each of the twenty-six cards．At the end the person who had the most cards won the game．

　　A few minutes later he heard the bell ring again．Mr Li jumped out of bed very quickly and rushed to the door．He opened it，but again he found no one there．He shut(關(guān)上)the door and tried not to feel too angry．Then he noticed a piece of paper on the floor inside the door．He picked it up．There were some words on it：“It is now after midnight，so it is April 1st．April fool to you！”
