    Many birds come in. Some are eating, and others are dancing.

    One day, when the children(play) games around the tree, John came and told them that he was going to carry it into the woodshed.

    "I want to cut it into firewood," answered John.

    "Oh, don't!" cried the children. "Our beautiful tree! Let us(have) it a little longer!"

    "What will you do with it?" asked John.

    "We(put) it in the yard and make a Christmas tree for the birds," replied the children.

    So John carried the fir tree into the yard. There it(stand) in the white snow, spreading out its beautiful green branches.

    "Now" cried Effie, "let us make some baskets(fill) corns. Then we will tie them to the tree for the birds. "

    What happened next? As you can see at the beginning of the story, the birds are living happily. With the birds and the tree, the children are also very happy. It is hard to tell which are happier, the birds or the children. I believe the tree is the happiest of all.

    Next time you hold a book in your hands, stop and think. Like most other things in the modern world, it is the result of thousands of years of human invention.

    First, came the invention of writing,(probable) about 5500 year ago. With writing, people did not have to remember everything in their heads. They could communicate with people that they never (see) and share their knowledge with future generations.

    Later, the Greeks were well-done for their literature( 文学 ) and science, but their “books” looked very different the books of today. They were called scrolls(卷轴).

    They were different to use and took a lot of space in a library. About 2,000 years ago, books with lots of pages (invent).

    For more than a thousand years, the pages of books were made from animal skin. That changed in thirteenth century, when Europeans learned about a very (use) Chinese invention: paper.

    But the biggest change for books in Europe came in 1439, when Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press. Before that, books in Europe were copied by hand, so they were very expensive. Many more people could afford the books were produced on a printing press.

    These days it is difficult (imagine) a world without books. But human invention does not stop. Every year, more (story) are bought as e-books and read on a screen.

    Will anyone turn the pages of a traditional book in the future,will books, like scrolls soon disappear?
