    It was late afternoon in a hot summer. John was sitting with his mother on the front stairs of their house. At the time of the day, it was much cooler outside. They really enjoyed it. The sun was setting over the mountains and the sky was orange. Lots of birds were flying home. John and his mother were talking happily.

After a while' John saw a man on the road walking towards their home. His mother was a little surprised. It was unusual for people to be walking along the main road' especially at that time of the day.

The man walked to the front gate. He was tall' thin and well—dressed. He looked a little tired from his walking. The man said he was a doctor from the hospital in the city. He was on his way to town to see a patient （病人） but his car broke down. He asked if they might call a mechanic （汽车修理工）in town to come and help him start his car.

John's mother said that there was no telephone around and the mechanic was not at work now. It would be difficult to get help for the doctor. Just then, John said that he would ride his bike into town to ask a mechanic to come over. They asked the doctor to wait at their house.

John's mother made the tired doctor a cup of tea. In no time, John returned in a white car with the mechanic. In the end, they had the doctor's car started. Then the man was able to see his patient and get back to the hospital in the city later that night.

    A long time ago, there lived a very wise King. He was so wise that he knew the ways of almost everything.

    One day, a tiny bee lost her way, and flew into the King's beautiful palace. The little bee begged the King, "Please, let me live' and I will offer you help some other day. "

    The King was amused（被逗乐的）to think a tiny bee could one day help a powerful king like him. He let the bee go and said, "Go, be on your way' for I need nothing more from you today. "

    Many days later, a queen was coming to visit from a far—away land.

    "I hear you are wise," the queen said to the king, "Would you be willing to put your intelligence to a test?"

    The King agreed and the queen did her best with puzzles, quizzes, and difficult questions. But the king solved all the problems perfectly.

    On the last day of her visit' the queen came up with another plan. She ordered the workers to produce ninety—ninefake flowers, but looking so real and natural. When finished' even the queen could not tell they were fake. She was sure the King would make the same mistake. And from the King's garden' she took just one real flower and cleverly hid it among all the others.

    The queen then challenged the king, "My workers created many beautiful flowers. Ninety—nine are fake' but one is real somewhere. Can you find that one?"

    The King accepted the challenge again. He smelled the flowers' but they were all so sweet, and all so beautiful. Now which one could the real flower be? The King became a bit nervous. Suddenly, he heard a buzzing sound. Something was there flying around. It was the tiny little bee he saved many days before. "I am here to repay the kindness you gave me' Sir. "

    The little bee quickly flew over the flowers and stopped on the real one. The King picked the flower and handed it to the queen.

    Finally, the queen had to give up and told everyone the king was truly the wisest man in the world.

New York is a very large city. How do so many people move on their way to work or school? In New York you can travel by subway, by bus, taxi and car.

The subway runs on the railroad lines under the city. Traveling by subway is the fastest way to get around the city. The second way to travel around the city is by bus. It is a slower way to travel. This is because the traffic is very heavy.

You can also travel around the city by taxi. This is very expensive, but the taxi will take you to the very place you want to. If the traffic is heavy, the taxi will be slow, too.

During the mornings and afternoons' there is the "rush hour". This is the time when the traffic is very heavy with people going to and from work. The last way to get around New York is using your own private car. It is inconvenient because you will perhaps be driving during the "rush hour". The best time to travel around the city is from 9 am to 4 pm. Because it isn't the "rush hour"（忙时）.
