It was very difficult to get tickets for her show, because everybody wanted to see it. So she decided to give the painter two of the best seats. She hoped that this would make him work better for her. He took the tickets without saying anything, and she heard no more about them until the end of the month, when she got the painter’s bill (账单). At the bottom of it were these words: “ Four hours watching Miss Hall sing and dance : 3 pounds,” with this note: “ After 5 p.m., I get 15 shillings (先令) an hour instead of 10 shillings.” 29.

And he was even well-known for his proverbs(谚语). Some of them are still used today, like this one: “ Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.” And another one is “ A penny saved is a penny earned”, which means that money should not be wasted. Americans like to use proverbs, which have deep meanings. Here is an interesting collection of proverbs that Americans use. Some people say “Absence makes the heart grow fonder.” This means you love someone even more when he or she is far away. Another proverb says “ Love is blind.” In other words, when you are in love with someone, you may refuse to see anything bad about that person. Some people only want to like someone who is very good-looking. You might tell them that “ Beauty is only skin deep.” Yuor girl friend may be lovely to look at, but she may also have some bad qualities(品质). Or maybe your boyfriend is a wonderful person, but not good-looking. So what a person looks like is not really important. In the end, we must say, “All good things must come to an end.” Make another collection of proverbs if you like. Anyway, “Actions speak louder than words.” 33.

They also have a job to do. They tell owners of new amusement parks where the old roller coasters are.

What can we do to form good reading habits? * Read in short periods. 10 minutes in the way to and from school, 10 minutes waiting for friends, and 15 minutes before going to sleep. That totals 45 minutes per day, about five hours per week. * Make your own reading list. Your list can be the best-selling books on famous websites like The New York Times or Dangdang.com, or the books your teacher recommends(推荐)。 * Talk about your reading with your family or friends. 56.
