Smith had to drive across the Sahara. It was a journey across hundreds of miles of an empty and dry area. After he had been driving for a few hours, there was a sandstorm came. Then his car left the road and broke down.

Smith began walking across the hot sand under the sun. He hoped he would soon reach the road again.

Soon, his tongue (舌頭) was thick with thirst. He needed water, but everywhere he looked there was nothing except sand.

Smith kept walking. Then, about an hour later, a man riding a camel came into sight. Smith waved to him. The man on the camel rode up to him and stopped.

“Please,” Smith said, “I am dying of thirst. Let me have some of your water.”

The man slowly shook his head. “You can’t have any water,” he said, “but I’ll sell you a beautiful tie.”

“I don’t want a tie.” Smith shouted at him furiously. “I need water.”

But the man turned away quickly and rode off.

Smith continued walking. Two hours later, he met another man riding a camel. This time he asked if he could buy some water, but the man refused, saying, “No, but I’ll sell you a tie.”

Angrily, Smith turned away from him and continued walking.

Three hours later, by which time he was near death, Smith saw a large hotel in the distance. It stood alone in the middle of the desert, surrounded by palm trees. Smith managed to reach the main entrance. He was about to enter the hotel when the doorman stopped him.

“Hey!” he said. “This is a first-class hotel. You can’t come in here without a tie.”

Clothes Donation (捐贈(zèng)) Box

Have you ever put your old clothes into the donation box in your neighborhood? If not, you can do it right now because the clothes donation is becoming popular in Hefei.

“From time to time, my mother clears out the clothes which I no longer wear. You know, we teenagers are growing fast. I think it’s a good way to help others.” Lin Tao, a junior student says.

“I often pick out some of my clothes which are out of style after going shopping. Then I’ll put them into the donation box.” Miss Li, a pretty young lady says.

“That seems like a good idea. Some clothes in the box are quite new. People can either wear them or use them to make things such as handbags and pencil cases.” Mrs. Wang, an old woman says, “Sometimes I also look through the box for some nice clothes.”

However, there are some problems along with clothes donation. Recently, a reporter from Focus on the City has made a survey. Here are the results:

◆The box is full of clothes in a short time. There is no more room for people to give away clothes.

◆Some people sell the clothes in the donation box for making money instead of wearing them.

◆Some communities set the box in unsuitable (不合適的) places. So there are few clothes in it.

◆Many clothes are too old.

“What’s worse,” one of the workers in a community added, “We quite often see people throw rubbish into the box when they pass by. We’ve tried to stop them several times but failed. It has been the most serious problems since we set the box.”

In order to make the donation box work in an efficient (有效的) way, our government is taking action. Clothes donation will be better-organized and it’ll be more convenient for people in need to take the clothes away.
