（A）

A friends grandfather came to America from Britain. He went into a cafeteria in Manhattan to get something to eat. He sat down at an empty table and waited for someone to take his order. Of course nobody did. At last, a woman with a plate full of food sat down in front of him and told him how a cafeteria worked. “Start out at the end,” she said. “Just go along the line and pick out what you want. At the other end theyll tell you how much you have to pay.”

“I soon learned thats how everything works in America,” the grandfather told a friend. “Life is like a cafeteria here. You can get anything you want only if you like to pay the money. You can even get success, but youll never get that if you wait for someone to bring it to you. You have to get up and get it yourself.”

（B）

London has a population of about 7,000,000. From about 1,800 until World War Ⅱ, London was the biggest city in the world, but now there are many cities which are much bigger.

London is famous for many things. Tourists come from all over the world to visit its famous buildings and hear the famous clock, Big Ben.

Like many big cities, London has problems with traffic and pollution. Over 1,000,000 people a day use the London underground, but there are still too many cars on the streets. The air isnt clean, but it is cleaner than it was 100 years ago.

For me, the best things about London are the parks. There are five in the city centre. But my childrens favorite place is Hamleys, the biggest toy shop in the world!
