Tom’s Letter and the Answers
Tom worried about his height, so he wrote a letter to a magazine:
Dear editors(编辑)，
I’ve always been very short for my age. Most of the people around me are much taller than me. So I get a little discouraged(泄气的). It’s hard to go to a show and spend the whole time looking at some tall persons’ back. And if they have big hair or a high hat, that’ll be even worse. My father is short too. He tells me not to worry about it. But what do you think I should do?
Tom Thumb
The editors published (出版) Tom’s letter in their magazine, and two readers answered it:
Dear Tom,
Many famous people are short. Pablo Picasso, the famous artist, was one meter and sixty tall, and Elton John is only one meter and fifty-three, and Deng Xiaoping is less than one meter and sixty, and so on. But all of these people and many more have made a big contribution(贡献) to the world.

One day Mr. Brown saw a lady in the street with ten children. He was very surprised because all the children were wearing the same clothes – white caps, dark blue coats and black trousers.
“Are all those children yours?” he asked the mother.
“Yes, they are,” she answered.
“Do you always dress them in the same clothes?” asked Mr. Brown.
“Yes,” answered the mother. “When we had four children, we dressed them in the same clothes because we did not want to lose any of them. And now we have ten. We still dress them the same because we do not want to take other children home.”

Some students help their parents at home, but others don’t. Here are the results of the survey. Beth is a good girl. She helps her parents sweep the floor every day. She folds clothes every evening. She often makes dinner when she comes home from school. And she does the laundry four times a week. Doris is a little bit lazy. She sweeps the floor twice a week. Sometimes she folds clothes. She only makes dinner on weekends. She does the laundry three times a month. I don’t think Clark helps his parents with the housework. He hardly ever sweeps the floor. He never folds clothes or makes dinner. Maybe he does the laundry once a year. What a lazy boy!
