An Old Man and Two Actors
Two young actors could not find work for a very long time. At last they were given small parts in a London theatre.
It made them very happy and they were glad when they were given some money for their work. So the first thing they decided to do was to have a good dinner at a restaurant.
On the way to the restaurant they sat down on a bench in the park. An old man was sitting at the other side of the bench. His eyes were sad and he looked ill.
Suddenly he fell off the bench. The young actors helped him to sit on the bench.
Some time later the old man said, “I haven’t eaten for three days. Three days ago I lost all the money I had,” and he began to cry.
“Please don’t cry. We haven’t got much money but we are glad to give you some money,” said one of the friends and he gave the old man a pound. The other actor did the same. The old man stopped crying.
“Oh, thank you. You are very good young men. Good-bye and be happy.”
Then he walked away very quickly.
“He doesn’t look ill any more. Do you think his story is true?” asked one of the friends.
“True or not true, we had to help him. If he was poor and hungry he needed the money, and if he was a very good actor he had to be paid for playing the part so well.”
“Yes, you’re right. I’m glad we gave him the two pounds.”
“Well, what about dinner now?”
“Oh, we’ll have something to eat at home. And think how happy we are. We’ve got our parts and we’ve been able to help an old man.”

BOOKWORM'S LOVE OF READING
WINS HIM TOP AWARD

Thirteen-year-old Chun-To started with one or two books а week but in
the past nine months he has read 137 books — enough to win the Education
Department's Extensive English Reading Scheme award.

Не became the top student from 19 schools participating in the Scheme run by the Institute of Language in Education.

The Wong Shiu Chi Secondary School pupil suggested that he probably was
а kind of bookworm and that he had few other hobbies, though he did once
represent his primary school in а table tennis contest. But most
evenings he spent reading to try to improve his English.

“Every evening after my homework I set aside one to two hours reading
the story books. And when I had finished the ones I borrowed from school
I exchanged them with my schoolmates, sо I can read more,” he said.

Chun-To said his favourite books were science fiction, detective and
horror stories but most of the titles he read for the competition were
famous classics.

“At first I had tо read twice some of the books I found difficult,” he admitted.

The school will not allow students to borrow books over the summer
holidays but Chun-To said he hoped tо continue his reading next term.

But as for his future career, he was still undecided. “I want to work in
an office rather than labouring and I want to be able to use my mind,
but it's too early for me to decide what I might do,” he said.
