Emily Mason and George Peters have lived next door to each other as long as they can remember. When they were little children, they used to play together. They were good friends, 75 they sometimes fought over toys or argued about what games they would play. As they grew older, they played together less.
Emily preferred to be with girls and George preferred to play with boys. When they were about fifteen years old, they almost stopped speaking to each other, not because they had disagreed with each other about anything, but because they belonged to different groups. Emily had begun to study French, and she 76 French so much that she began to write short plays in French. In addition, she liked television programmes, and she was interested in watching football games very much.

Emily was surprised to see him, but she asked him to come in, and they watched the rest of the game together. At some time during the afternoon, George looked at Emily, and he noticed that she had become a very pretty young lady. Emily and George are good friends again. They still have 80 ideas about things sometimes, but they agree with each other that football is the world's best game. Mrs. Mason doesn't seem to disapprove of her daughter's interest in football as much as used to.

At the airport stands a DCIO aeroplane. From time to time people are taken c 81 onto the plane because they are blind. They are not passengers and the plane is not going anywhere. These people are going to have an operation to restore(回复) their sight.
The aeroplane is a flying eye hospital that belongs to a medical charity called ORBIS. This organization was established by an American eye doctor called David Paton in 1982. Dr. Paton wanted to treat people who were blind in poor countries. He r 82 that it would not be cheap to set up hospitals in every poor country. So he decided to create a hospital which could go to the places where blind people were most in need of eye doctors.
ORBIS has carded out almost 300 medical programmes in over 70 countries and restored the sight of 20000 people. ORBIS has a 83 trained many local doctors and nurses in the skills needed to give blind people back their sight.
The ORBIS team consists of five doctors and six nurses drawn from a group of 600 volunteer eye experts in 30 countries. For each programme the ORBIS team flies to an area where blindness is a main p 84 . The team stays in the area for three weeks operating on patients and training local doctors.
The flying eye hospital has a large operating room, a laser treatment room and an audio-visual centre. As the eye experts perform their operations in the operating room, the local doctors can watch the surgery and learn t 85 the two-way audio-visual system (双向声像系统).
ORBIS is not connected with any country. The United Nationhas praised ORBIS as a model organization that goes beyond political, religious and cultural differences. ORBIS is e 85 to run, however. It receives money from private donations and other charities to meet its 80 million US dollars every year. ORBIS is a great s 87 . It continues to fight against the tragedy of blindness wherever it is found throughout the world.

Then a supermarket opened across the street. The supermarket was ten times the size of Tom's shop.
The manager of the supermarket wanted to take Tom's customers away from him. He found out what Tom's prices were and then made his prices lower than Tom's.
People quickly stopped buying things from Tom's shop. They bought everything from the supermarket instead. Soon Tom's business was very bad and he was angry.

The price of steak in the supermarket was $5.00 a pound. Tom put a sign in his window, "Steak--S4.50 a pound."
The next day the price of steak in the supermarket was $4.25 a pound. Tom changed the sign in his window. "Steak--S4.00 a pound."
An hour later, the sign in the supermarket said, "Steak--S3.75 a pound." Ten minutes later the sign in Tom's window said, "Steak--S3.5 a pound."
Five minutes later the sign in the supermarket said, "Steak--S2.5 a pound." Twenty seconds later the sign in Tom's window said, "Steak--S1.00 a pound."
The manager of the supermarket ran across the road into Tom's shop. "This price cutting must be stopped," he said, "Steak is costing me $4.00 a pound. I'm selling it at $2.50 a pound. I'm losing money every minute!"
'I’ll stop cutting all my prices," Tom said, "If you stop cutting all yours."
The supermarket manager agreed, and the two men shook hands. Tom smiled. He had not lost any money on the steak. He did not sell steak.
