　　“London Bridge is falling down, falling down, failing down...”

　　You may know the song. It's about a very old bridge. The bridge was in London, but it's no longer there now. The bridge did not fall down. Workers took it down. London needed a new bridge. The old one was not very strong. Too many people had gone across it for too many years.

　　“What shall we do with the bridge?” people asked. An American said, “ I'll buy it.”He wanted to move it to the United States. But how can you move a bridge? First someone made a picture of the bridge. It showed the exact place of each stone. A number was put on each stone in the picture. The same numbers were written on the real stones. Then the bridge was taken down. The stones were put on the ships. They were went across the sea to the United States. Piece by piece, the bridge was put back together. Each

stone was put in the fight place. So the old bridge is still standing, but it's not in London. Let's hope it won't fall down.
