Mr Denys Stocks, an old policeman, has just been given a prize for 12 years' research into ancient Egyptian industrial methods. People often wondered how the Egyptians were able to cut such hard stone and how they produced such fine jewellery. Mr Stocks has shown that the Egyptians used saws (锯) and drills (钻). The saws and drills were made of copper (铜), which is very soft. But the Egyptains turned them into very powerful tools. First, an Egyptian made a cut in the stone with a soft saw. Then the Egyptian put some sand into the cut. The hard sand got into the teeth of the saw and did the cutting. In this way, a worker could cut one of the hardest rocks. The sand he used turned into a very fine powder. The powder was then used by jewellers to cut valuable stones to make good jewellery.

Mr.Clinton and his 3-year-old son Tony are basketball fans. Last October 10th was Tony’s birthday,
so Mr.Clinton decided to drive him to New York, for the first game of the World Series. They had no
ticket but hoped to buy a pair from scalpers.
It was a two hours’ ride. After they arrived, they walked in the street for two hours, carrying a sign
(牌子) that read, “ We need two tickets.” There were many scalpers around, but the cheapest ticket
was $200. They were about to leave when suddenly a man stopped them. He took out two tickets and
handed them to Mr. Clinton.
“How much do you want?”
“Just a present,” said the man. “Enjoy the game.”
Mr. Clinton wouldn’t accept, so the man explained, “I’m Jackson. Hans is my boss. He and his wife
haven’t missed a World Series in 18 years. But he is ill and can’t watch the game this time. So he told
me to give the two tickets to people who I thought would actually enjoy the game. A lot of people
looked as if they might just take the tickets and sell them. Then I saw you and I followed you for a while.
You seemed very disappointed. You made me think of my dad and me when I was a child. I dreamed
of going to a World Series game with my father. But my dream never came true.”
How do you suppose this made Mr. Clinton and his son feel? Here is what Mr. Clinton said: “This is
the most wonderful thing that ever happened to us. My boy and I must have turned to each other over
30 times and said, ‘I can’t believe this.’ We still never forget Jackson and Hans.”
A. people who buy tickets at a reasonable price
B. people who sell tickets at a reasonable price
C. people who buy tickets at a high price
D. people who sell tickets at a high price
