One day Tom borrowed a pot（罐） from his neighbour, Ali. The next day he brought it back with another little pot inside.
“That’s not mine,” said Ali.
“Yes, it is.” said Tom, “While your pot was staying with me, it had a baby.”
Some time later, Tom asked Ali to lend him a pot again. Ali said yes, hoping that he would once again get two pots in return. However, days passed and Tom still did not give the pot back. Finally Ali was angry and went to ask for it.
“I am sorry,” said Tom, “I can’t give it back to you because it died.”
“Died!” cried Ali, “How can a pot die?”
“Well,” said Tom, “you believed me when I told you that your pot had a baby.”

Have you ever seen snow? Many people in the world have not. Some countries never have snow; some have only a little on the tops of very high mountains. In the north of England, there is quite a lot of snow every winter, but in the south of England, there is usually little.
When a student from a warm country comes to England in autumn for the first time, he feels cold at first. There are often dark clouds, grey sky and cold rain in England in autumn, and most students from warm countries do not like this.
But snow is different. Though it is cold, it is also beautiful. Perhaps, after several dark mornings, the student wakes up one day, and there is a lot of light in his room. He thinks “Is it so late?” and jumps out of bed. But no, it is not very late. He looks out of the window and there is the snow on the ground and on the houses and everywhere. The light of his room comes from clean, beautiful snow.
