<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><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> One day an ant was drinking at a small stream and fell in. She made desperate(</span><span>拼命的</span><span>) efforts to reach the side, but made no progress at all. The poor ant almost exhausted</span><span>（精疲力竭的）</span><span>was still bravely doing her best when a dove saw her. Moved with pity, the bird threw her a blade(</span><span>叶片</span><span>) of grass, which supported her like a raft, and thus the ant reached the bank again. While she was resting and drying herself in the grass, she heard a man come near. He was walking along barefooted with a gun in his hand. As soon as he saw the dove, he wished to kill it. He would certainly have done so, but the ant bit him in the foot just as he raised his gun to fire. He stopped to see what had bit him, and the dove immediately flew away. It was an animal much weaker and smaller than herself that had saved her life.</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> 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>
