     In almost every big university in the United States, football is a favorite sport. American football is
  different. Players sometimes kick (踢) the ball that is oval (not round), but they also throw the ball with
 their hands and run with it. They try to take it to the other end of the field. They have four chances to
 move the ball ten yards (长度单位,码). They can carry it or they can throw it. If they move the ball ten
 yards, they can try to move it another ten yards. If they move it to the end of the field, they receive six
 points (点,分). It is difficult to move the ball. Eleven men on the other team try to stop the man with the
 ball. If he does not move the ball ten yards, his team kicks the ball to the other team.
     Each university wants its own team to win. Many, many people come to watch. They all shout for their
 favorite team. Young men and women come on the field to help the people shout more. They dance and
 jump while they shout.
     Each team plays ten or eleven games each season. The season begins in September and ends in
 November. If a team is very good, it may play another game after the season ends. The best teams play
  again on January1, the first day of the New Year. Many people go to see these games and many others watch them on TV.

       Pearl and June were good friends and spent most of their time together. They were both very old and they worried about their health. Most of the time they talked about nothing else. They worried about their
food. Was it clean? Would it give them pains in the stomach? They worried about the weather. Was it too cold and wet? Would it give them pains in their bones? They worried about pollution in the air. Would it
give them pains in their chests(胸) and throats(咽喉)? They worried about being hurt in a car accident,
killed in an airplane crash(坠落), getting sick, and so on. All they could think about was being ill or hurt.
One day they went on a train journey together. "We'll need some food," Pearl said.
       "We'll buy some bananas," June said. "They are good to eat and always clean." And so they bought
two bananas to eat on the train. It was not long before they were hungry. Pearl took out the bananas and
gave one to June. Then she peeled(剥开) the skin of her banana and took a large bite of it. At that moment the train went into a tunnel(隧道). Everything went black. "Don't eat your banana," Pearl shouted at June. "Mine has made me go blind(瞎的)!"

     When we talk about the ways of traveling, different people may have different ideas. Some think
that trains are the best but others think ships, or cars or planes are better. I think each of them has
advantages and disadvantages.
     Traveling by train is slower than by air, but it is more comfortable. There are comfortable seats
and dining-cars. You can talk to people and enjoy the beautiful sceneries through the windows. The
train to some people is just like a big moving party.
     Some people prefer to travel by sea. Ships are not so fast as trains or planes, but traveling by sea
is a very pleasant way to spend a holiday. You can go to parties and movies on the ship, and enjoy
the blue sky and water. You may think you are the king of the world when you are on the board.
     Some people like to travel by car. You needn't be in a hurry to arrive on time as you travel by
train, ship or air. You can travel as far as you like and shop wherever you with. That is to say, you
enjoy more freedom of choices while traveling by car than by any other means.
     Other people like to travel by air. Although it may cost more than the other ways, it can save
much time, and it is more convenient to travel by air if you go abroad. That is why traveling by air
is popular for business people and students who study abroad.
