<div><span> Nancy got a job as a secretary in a big company. She was going to work in the Sales Department. Monday was the first day she came to work. She was very excited and she arrived early at the office. She pushed the door open and was surprised to find a large bunch of fresh flowers on her desk. "Oh, how lovely! Somebody sent me flowers the very first day!" She thought happily. "But who could it be?" The day passed quickly and Nancy did everything well. And every Monday morning she came to her office, she would see a new bunch of flowers there. She still didn't know who sent these flowers. One Tuesday afternoon, she was asked to hand in a plan to the general manager's office. Her eyes suddenly fell on these words on a piece of paper: "Keep the secretaries in high spirits; Send a bunch of fresh flowers to each secretary's desk on Monday morning." </span></div>
<div align="left"><span> Once there was a king. He liked to write stories. He thought his stories were good, so he liked to show them to people. As people were afraid to criticize the king’s stories, they all said that his stories were very good. </span></div><div align="left"><span> One day, the king showed some of his best stories to a famous writer. He wanted the writer to say good of these stories. But the writer said his stories were so bad that he should throw them into the fire. The king got very angry with him and sent him to prison(</span><span>监狱</span><span>). </span></div><div align="left"><span> After some time the king felt sorry for the writer and set him free. When the writer returned from prison, the king ordered him to come to his palace. Again he showed him some of his new stories and asked what he thought of them. After reading them, the writer at once turned to the soldier and said,</span><span>“</span><span>Take me back to prison, please.</span><span>”</span><span> </span></div>
<div><span> Today anyone will accept money in exchange for goods and services. People use money to buy food, furniture, books, bicycles and hundreds of other things we need or want. When they work, they usually get paid in money.</span></div><div><span> Lots of the money today is made of paper. But people used to use all kinds of things as money. One of the first kinds of money was shells. Shells were not the only things used as money.</span></div><div><span> In China, cloth and knives were used. In the Philippine Islands, rice was used as money for a long time. Some Africans once used elephant tusks, monkey tails, and salt as money.</span></div><div><span> The first metal coins were made in China. They were round and had a square hole in the center. Different countries have used different metals and designs for their money. Later, countries began to make coins of gold and silver.</span></div><div><span> But even gold and silver were inconvenient if you had to buy something expensive. Again the Chinese thought of a way to improve money. They began to use paper money. The first paper money looked more like a note from one person to another than the paper money used today.</span></div><div><span> Money has had an interesting history, from the days of shell money until today.</span></div>
<div><span> There are some things about myself that I really like. First of all, I always make an effort to do my best. I never give up halfway without trying my best. For example, I have practiced the piano for more than twelve years. And now I am learning English every day. </span></div><div><span> Secondly, I’m good at making people laugh. I feel happy when people smile at the thing I do. I make friends with anyone easily and now I have a lot of friends. </span></div><div><span> Of course, I also have my weak points. I sometimes feel that I’m a bit selfish or careless. I want to overcome these faults and I believe this will make a man of me and people will love me better. </span></div>
<div><span> Women are terrible shoppers. They spend a lot of time shopping and they only buy a few things. My wife is one of them. Sometimes she shops all day and she doesn't buy anything. She tries on clothes all day and then doesn't bring anything home. This seems mad. </span></div><div><span> She’s too fussy. She only likes a few colors, Her favorite colors are blue, green and yellow. She doesn't like red and pink. They are too bright and they don't suit her. And brown and gray aren't bright enough. Oh, she's fussy. </span></div><div><span> This week, my wife bought herself a fur coat, and a ready-made suit dress, that is to say, a coat and a skirt. She wants to find a silk blouse to match them. She'd like to buy a hat, too. In this way, she says, she will be in the very latest fashion. It seems that the suit she bought three weeks ago is already out of date. </span></div>
