Sometimes, people don"t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks "Do you agree?", the other person might think, "No, I disagree. I think you"re wrong..."But it isn"t very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say "I"m not sure." It"s a nicer way to say that you don"t agree with someone.
People don"t say exactly what they are thinking when they want to finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person says "I"ve to go now."Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse:"Someone"s at the door.""Something is burning on the stove."The excuses might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn"t want to talk any more, but it isn"t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn"t hurt the other person.
Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people don"t say exactly what they are thinking. It"s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it"s part of the game of language.

In some cities the rubbish is collected and taken outside of city to a dump. Often the city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole. The kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces and sent into the sewage system. The sewage system takes away the used water from toilets, bathtubs and other places.
To keep mice and flies away, some earth is used to cover the newly dumped rubbish. Later, grass may be planted on the rubbish-filled land. Finally , a house or a school may be built there, and then you’d never know that this had once been an old rubbish dump.
In other cities the rubbish is burnt in special places. The fire burns everything but the metal. Sometimes the metal can be used again in factories where things are made of metal. The food parts of rubbish are put in special piles where they slowly change into something called humus, which looks like black earth. It is rich with kinds of things that feed plants and help make them grow.

About 300 years ago, London started to get bigger. The city was very dirty and many people were poor. There were so many thieves who stole money in the streets that people had to stay in their homes as much as possible.
In 1750, Henry Fielding started to pay a group of people to stop thieves. They were like policemen and were called “Bow Street Runners” because they worked near Bow Street.
Fifty years later, there were 120 Bow Street Runners, but London had become very big and needed more policemen. So, in 1829, the first London Police Force was started with 3,000 officers. Most of the men worked on foot, but a few rode horses. There was no policewoman in London until 1920.
Today, London police are quite well paid and only a few police officers still ride horses.
Perhaps the London Police Force’s greatest achievement (成就) is to meet changing conditions and provide excellent police service (服务). The two main reasons for the Force’s development were the growth of population and the progress of science and technology.

Sometimes it is impossible to deliver（投递）all the mail that arrives at the post office. Perhaps there is an mailing address and there is no return address. The post office cannot just the mail, so it becomes “dead mail”. Dead mail is to one of the U.S. Post Service’s in Atlanta, New York, and San Francisco. Seventy-five million pieces of mail can be put in these offices in one year.
There the workers of the dead mail offices have ways to deal with all of these pieces of dead mail. First of all, they look for that can help them deliver the mail; they open packages, expecting that something will show where the package came from or is going to. Dead mail will also be listed on a so that people can call in and check to see if a missing thing is there on the screen.
