Mark Twain, as you know, was famous in his day as a public speaker. In his public speeches he always liked to tell funny (可笑的) stories. He also liked to listen to funny stories and to play jokes on his friends. One day one of his friends lost his wallet and asked Mark Twain to pay his train fare(费用)for him.
“But I don't have enough money to pay both your fare and mine.”Mark Twain said. The friend did not know what to do.
“We can do this.” said Mark Twain, “We can get on the train and when the conductor comes to check the tickets, you can hide under my seat. ”

A Letter From Mar(火星)Dear Earthmen,
I have enjoyed my stay on your interesting planet. I think I understand the life on earth now and I would like to give my impressions(印象).
First of all you live in boxes. Every morning you leave your big boxes and get into smaller boxes on wheels(轮子). All these small boxes run around and around, and finally stop to rest. You leave these boxes on wheels and go to very large tall boxes.
After resting all day you get back in your little boxes and return to your big boxes. There you sit and look at very small glowing boxes with moving pictures on the front.
There is only one thing I don't understand. I went to a football game one day. A group of angry boys fought a little round ball. Everyone shouted but they kept fighting. They were angry, because they had been kept in boxes all day. I think.
Thanks you earthmen for this chance to get to know you.
Yours
The man from Mars
