As a youngster,there was nothing I liked better than Sunday af?ternoons on my grandfather's farm in western Pennsylvania. Sur?rounded by miles of winding stone walls,the house and field provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me.

I can still remember one afternoon when I was eight years old. Since my first visit to the farm,I had wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stone walls surrounding the houses. My parents would never approve. The walls were old;some stones were missing,others loose and falling. Still,my idea to climb across those walls grew so strong that finally,one spring afternoon,I had all my courage to enter the living room,where the adults had gathered after Sunday din?ner.

"I,uh―I want to climb the stone walls," I said. Everyone looked up. "Can I climb the stone walls?" Immediately voices of disagreement went up from the women in the room. "Heavens,no!You'll hurt yourself!" I wasn't too disappoint?ed; the response was just as I'd expected. But before I could leave the room,I was stopped by my grandfather's loud voice. "Now hold on just a minute,"I heard him say. "Let the boy climb the stone walls. He has to learn to do things for himself."

"Go”, he said to me, "and come and see me when you get back."For the next two and a half hours I climbed those old walls―and had the time of my life. Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my adventures. I'll never forget what he said. "Fred," he said,smiling. "You made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember that there's only one person in this whole world like you,and that I like you exactly as you are."

Many years have passed since then,and today I host the television programme Mister Rogers' Neighbourhood,seen by millions of children throughout America. There have been changes over the years,but one thing remains the same:my mes?sage to children at the end of almost every visit. "There's only one person in this whole world like you”,the kids can count on hearing me say, "and people can like you exactly as you are."

  Millions of women use cosmetics,often called "makeup". The cosmetics industry is one of the biggest in the world. Most large stores sell cosmetics,and there are always shops at air?ports selling them cheaply. The word "cosmetics" refers to anything that people put on their faces to make them look better. Lipstick,face powder and cream,and eye makeup are the most popular. Although more women than men use cosmetics,there are cosmetics for men as well as women.

Some people even have cosmetic surgery to make their faces look different. They have the shape of their noses and eyes changed.

The most widely used cosmetic is probably lipstick,as many women who do not wear any other makeup will often put on a little lipstick.

Lipstick is made by mixing together different oils and colors. This mixture is then allowed to get hard and is cut into the shape of a small pencil. When a woman presses the lipstick to her lips,the end of it becomes soft,and some of it sticks to her lips,giving them extra color.

Cosmetics were probably first used in India,but it was the Egyptians,six thousand years ago,who made the most use of them. Rich Egyptian women painted their eyes green and black. They used a red color to paint pretty designs on their fingernails,the palms of their hands and the soles of their feet. Pictures of Cleopatra always show her wearing a lot of makeup.

The Romans also used cosmetics. They liked to make their skin very white and to paint their eyes. They also used a kind of lipstick.

In England at one time,very rich women had baths in milk to make their skin beautiful. They also used a lot of sweetsmelling powder to stop people smelling their bodies,which were often very dirty because they did not wash very often or change their clothes.

At one time,some cosmetics were not safe. They were bad for the skin,and some of the lipsticks and powders that people used were even poisonous. Nowadays,people in the cosmetics industry take great care to make sure that everything they use is completely safe.

(   ) 5. Which of the following cosmetics is probably most widely used?

   A. all cosmetics were harmful to people

   B. people never used cosmetics on the eyes

   C. poisonous cosmetics were never used on the skin

   D. not all cosmetics were harmful to the skin

(   ) 8. What is the main meaning of the passage?

   A. Cosmetic surgery is the only method to make people different.
