　　One day Mr. Jackson took Paul to his favourite restaurant. It was a French restaurant. The waiter was from France. But he didn't speak to them in French. “Would you like to see the menu?” he asked in a kind way. “Yes, please,” Mr. Jackson said.

　　The waiter gave them a menu each. They studied them. “You can spend only twenty-five dollars,” Mr. Jackson told his son. The waiter asked Paul, “What would you like, young man?”

　　“How much is the tomato soup?” Paul asked.

　　“Six dollars,” the waiter said. “It's very good.”

　　“How much is the duck with orange?” Paul asked next.

　　“Fifteen dollars,” the waiter said.

　　“How much is the chocolate ice cream?”

　　“Six dollars,” the waiter said.

　　Paul added(加) it up quickly. Six plus fifteen plus six is twenty-seven. He thought he could have the duck and the soup, or the duck and the ice cream. “I'll have the duck and the chocolate ice cream, please,” he said to the waiter.

　　Paul said to his father, “My meal will cost only twenty-one dollars. Can I keep the other four dollars?” His father laughed, “No, Paul,” he said. “Leave it for the waiter.”

　The word“day” has two meanings. When we talk about the number of days in a year,  we are using “day” to mean 24 hours. But when we talk about day and night,  we are using“day” to mean the time between sunrise and sunset. Since the earth looks like a ball,  the sun can shine on only half of it at a time. Always one half of the earth is having day and the other half night. A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by the spinning（旋转）of the earth. At the equator（赤道）day and night are sometimes the same length（长度）. They are each twelve hours long. The sun rises at 6 o’clock in the morning and sets at 6 o’clock in the evening. For six months the North Pole is tilted（倾斜）toward the sun. In those months the Northern Hemisphere（半球）gets more hours of sunlight than the Southern Hemisphere. Days are longer than nights. South of the equator nights are longer than days. For the other six months the North Pole is tilted away from the sun. Then the Southern Hemisphere gets more sunlight. Days are longer than nights. North of the equator nights are longer than days. Winter is the season of long nights. Summer is the season of long days.

　Moreno, Stanley, and 23 other students from Westfield State College were on vacation in Acapulco, Mexico. This was the last night in the hotel. It was 4 am, Moreno and Stanley came back from a party.

　　Just as Stanley went to sleep, he heard loud noise outside. From the balcony (阳台) of their fourth-floor room, Moreno and Stanley saw black smoke out of one window and heard people shouting.

　　Moreno ran out into the corridor and began knocking on doors and shouting, "Fire!" After that, he went upstairs in a hurry to tell other people. At the same time, Stanley was downstairs helping people get through the smoke-filled room. There he joined forces with Nalewanski, a 21-year-old boy who had a room on the second floor.

　　"Let's go," Nalewanski said. He and Stanley wet their shirts in the bathroom and put them around their mouths and noses so they could breathe. Then they ran up the stairs. On the fourth floor they found Moreno feeling terrible (Moreno had made it up to the eighth floor before turning back). But after making sure he could get back down on his own, they continued upstairs, knocking on the doors on every floor.

　　In the end, no one was seriously hurt. Moreno said, "There were hundreds of people in the hotel. It was our duty to help them."
