Once there lived an old man in a town. He always forgot a lot of things. So his wife always had to say to him, "Don't forget this."

   One day he went on a long way alone. Before he left home, his wife said, "Now you have all these things. You need them on your way. Take care of your things on the way." He went to the station. He bought a ticket and got on the train with it.

   About an hour latter. The conductor began to see the tickets. She came to the old man and said, "Will you please show me your ticket?" The old man looked for his ticket in all his pockets but he could not find it. He was very worried." I can't find my ticket. I really bought a ticket before I got on the train," said the old man.

"I think you are right. I believe you bought a ticket. All right, you don't have to buy another ticket," said the conductor kindly. But the old man still looked worried and said sadly," You don't know why I'm worried. If I don't find my ticket. I can't remember my station. Where am I going?"

My name is Susan. I am outgoing. I like to have friends who are similar to me. Both my best friend Linda and I like travelling. We went to Italy with our families last summer holiday. We stayed there for two weeks. Next year, we want to go Paris.

My name is Mary. I like to have friends who are different from me. My best friend Betty is shorter and more outgoing than me. I am quiet and I like reading very much. Betty likes sports and she plays ping-pong very well.

I'm Petter. I like to have friends who like me. It can be very helpful. I'm a little quiet and my good friend Rick is quiet too. Sometimes I don't know what to do with my problems; but he can tell me what I should do, because he knows about me better than people who are different from me.

I'm Bill. I have both kinds of friends. I think it is important. That makes my life more interesting.

Different cultures have different ideas about why people catch colds. For example, in the United States, some people think that you can catch a cold if your feet get cold. So, mothers tell small children to wear warm boots in the winter. In other places, including parts of the Middle East, some people believe that strong winds cause colds. So, on trains and buses, people usually don't like to sit next to open windows. In parts of Europe, some people think that wearing wet clothes will give you a cold. They say that after you go swimming, you should quickly put on dry clothes. Today, scientists know that colds are caused by a virus（病毒）.
