阅读理解。      Several years ago, a television reporter was talking to three of the most important people in America. One was a very rich banker, another owned one of the largest companies in the world, and the third
owned many buildings in the center of New York.
     The reporter was talking to them about being important.
     "How do we know if someone is really important?"the reporter asked the banker.
     The banker thought for a few moments and then said,"I think anybody who is invited to the White
House to meet the President of the United States is really important. "

President important. "

     Miss Evans taught physics in a London school. Last month she was explaining to her class about
sound, and she decided to test them to see how successful she had been in her work. She said to them,
Now, I have a sister in Washington. If I was calling her on the telephone, and at the same time you were
20 meters away and listened to me from the other side of the street, who could hear what I said earlier,
my sister or you? And why?
    The cleverest boy at once answered, "Your sister, Miss Evans, because electricity (电) travels faster
than sound waves(波)." That"s very good, Miss Evans answered, but then one of the girls put up her hand, and Miss Evans said, Yes, Betty?

it"s only six o"clock in Washington."
