阅读理解。     Bill was fourteen years old. He had a part-time job which made him get up at five. He was a newspaper
boy. Though it was hard work, he enjoyed it a lot.
     Each morning, Bill left his house at five fifteen to go to the corner. The newspapers had been sent to the
corner by a truck at midnight. He always rode a bike to carry them.
     In winter it was still dark when he got up, but during the rest of the year it was bright. Bill had to send
the newspapers to the houses of people in all kinds of weather. He tried to put each paper in the box where
it would be kept safe from wind and rain or snow. His customers are in different places. Since many of them
worked during the day, Bill had to get the money at night. Sometimes Bill"s customers gave him some more
money for his good work. When Bill was ill, his elder brother had to send the newspapers. Once, Bill"s father
had to help him.
     Bill had 70 customers, but he hoped to get more soon. Some day, if he got many more customers, perhaps

     Young people and older people don"t always agree with each other. They sometimes have different ideas
about living, working and having fun. But in one special program in New York, adults and teenagers live
together in peace.
     Each summer 200 teenagers and 50 adults live together for eight weeks as members of a special work
group. Everyone works for several hours each day. The purpose of this program is not just to keep busy. It
is also to find meaning and enjoyment in work. Some teenagers work on the farms near the village. Some
learn to make furniture and to build houses. The adults teach them these skills.

learn photography and painting. Others sit around and talk or sing. Each teenager chooses his own way to
spend his free time.
     When people live together, rules are always necessary. In this program the teenagers and the adults make
the rules together. If someone breaks a rule, the whole group will discuss the problem. They ask, "Why did it
happen? What should we do about it?"

     My granddaughter, 10, was very happy the day before yesterday because her mother and the mother
of one of her classmates took them to a park and a Pizza Hut (比萨饼屋) to celebrate Children"s Day. For
a whole day, the two girls played heartily - no homework, no extra-curricular (课外) skills training. The
happy life lasted only for one day. Yesterday, everything returned to normal: doing homework till late at
night and going over lessons learned at last weekend"s English and "Olympic mathematics" (数学奥赛) 
courses.

     I live in a very over populated beach area in the Los Angeles, and I love the beautiful sights. But because
of many people, lots of things are easy to be out of order, and sometimes it"s also easy to become angry.
Today was a day I wish I did not get out of bed. I mean that if I did not have to wake up and deal with all
the things that I have to deal with every day, it would have been wonderful.

girl in nice clothes pulled in (汽车停靠) and was stuck (被困住) in such a way that unless I moved for her,
she wouldn"t be able to get out. So I backed up (倒车) and waved her into my place in the front of the line.
     I was surprised that this young girl did not say thanks. I was a little unhappy about it because I thought
that I had done something nice for a change. After the girl received her food and drove away, I pulled into
the ordering spot, not mad but hungry, and the employee said, "Hi, that girl just paid for your food."
     That food was the most satisfying nourishment (营养品) my body had ever taken! If just by chance you
are that person who bought my food, I should say "Thank you!"
