　　Today people can use the phone to talk with others almost anywhere on the earth．But when you use the phone, you don't see the person you are talking with．This may change in the near future．

　　Today some people are using a kind of telephone called the picture phone．With it, two people who are talking can see each other．

　　Picture phones can be useful when you have something to show to the person you' re calling．They may have other uses in the future．One day you may be able to ring up a library and ask to see a book．Then you'll be able to read the book right over your picture phone．Or you may be able to go shopping through your picture phone．If you see something in the newspaper that you think you want to buy, you'll go to your phone and call the shop．People at the shop will show you the thing you're interested in right over the phone．You'll be able to shop all over town and never even leave your room!

　　“Oh,” the little boy replied, with his head down．He thought for a moment, looked up and said, “Daddy,could you lend me ＄10?” The father was furious, “If you asked for the money to buy a toy or some other rubbish, then go straight to your room and think about why you are being so selfish!”

　　Nearly all our food comes from the soil(土地)．Some of us eat meat, of course, but animals live on plants．If there were no plants, we would have no animals and no meat．So the soil is very necessary for life．The top of the ground is usually covered with grass or other plants．There may be dead leaves and dead plants on the grass．The waste matter(糞)from animals also falls on it．

　　All soil needs food．If we do not give it any, the plants will be weak．Farmers found that animals' waste is the best food for the soil, but chemical fertilizers(化肥)are also very useful．The same crop(莊稼)should not be grown in the same place every year, it's better to have a different crop．A change of crop and the use of a good fertilizer will keep the land good．
