About big cities

  New York, London, Paris and other big cities are wonderful places to live in. There are many nice things to see and to do. You can go to different kinds of museums, plays and films. You can also go shopping to buy things from all over the world.

  But there are serious problems in big cities, too. The cost of living is high, and there are too many people in some places. Every year many people move to the cities because there are more chances to find jobs, to study at good schools and to receive good medical care. But sometimes these people can not find jobs or good places to live in. Also, too many people in a small space make it hard to keep the cities safe and clean.

  Some people enjoy staying in big cities, others do not. Before people move to a big city, they should think about the problems of staying there.

阅读理解。
      George was very stingy (吝啬的). He hated spending money. 
      Whenever he had to buy something, he always argued about the price and tried to bargain (讨价还价),
even for the cheapest things.
      If he wanted to buy a bottle of coke, for example, and the shopkeeper asked for $2, George would say,
"Make it $1.90 and I'll buy it."
      Sometimes the shopkeeper agreed to reduce (降低) their prices a little. "What's ten cents?" they asked
themselves."If it makes this man happy, then it won't hurt me very much."
      In this way George saved a few cents here and a few cents there, and by the end of the year, he had
saved several hundred dollars.
      One day he had a very bad toothache and had to go to the dentist. The dentist looked at the tooth and
said, "This tooth will have to come out. It's too damaged (损坏的) to save."
      "How much do you charge (要价) to take out a tooth?" George asked. 
      "Forty dollars." the dentist said. "Forty dollars!" George thought this was much too expensive.
      "How long will it take you to pull out the tooth?" he asked.
      "About two minutes," the dentist said.
      George could not believe what he was hearing. "Forty dollars for two minutes' work!" he shouted.
"That's robbery (抢劫)."
      The dentist smiled. "You're right," she said. "Thank you for telling me. I'll pull your tooth out very slowly.
What if I take half an hour?"

  parents. Make a safety check before going to sleep.
     ●Look through the keyhole when you hear the doorbell. If there are strangers, ask "Who's that?" with
