A man went to a fast- food restaurant to buy his lunch. “Hi,”a worker said. “May I help you?”

“I’d like a hamburger, large chips, and a Coke, ”the man said.

“Anything else? the worker asked. ”

“No, ” the man answered. “That’s it.”

“Is that for here or to go?”the worker asked.

“To go, ”the man said.

The worker put the man’s lunch in a bag. The man took out his money and paid for his lunch.

“Thank you,”the worker said.“Have a nice day.”

The man took the bag and walked to a park. He sat down and opened the bag. He was surprised. There was no hamburger in the bag. There were no chips. There was no Coke. There was only money in the bag—a lot of money ! The man counted the money. Two thousand dollars! Why was the money in the bag? Where was the man’s lunch?

The manager of the fast - food restaurant needed to go to the bank. He put two thousand dollars in an envelope(信封). He put the envelope in a bag and put the bag down. The worker gave the manager’s bag to the man by mistake. So the manager had a hamburger, chips and a Coke, and the man had two thousand dollars. What should the man do?

Anne and Joseph are talking about an interesting question. Why do some people change their names? There can be many reasons. Hanna changed her name to Anne because she thought it would be easier for people to remember. On the other hand, Joseph is thinking about changing his name to an unusual name because he wants to be different.

People have a lot of reasons for changing their names. Film stars, singers, sportsmen and some other famous people often change their names because they want names that are not ordinary, or that have special sound. They chose the “new name”for themselves instead of the name their parents gave them when they were born.

Some people have another reason for changing their names. They have moved to a new country and want to use a name that is usual there. For example, Li Kaiming changed his name to Ken Lee when he moved to the United States. He uses the name Ken at his job and at school. But with his family and Chinese friends, he uses Li Kaiming. For some people, using different names makes life easier in their new country.

In many countries, a woman changes her family name to her husband’s after she gets married. But today, many women are keeping their own family name and not using their husband’s. Sometimes, women use their own name in some situations (情况)and their husband’s in other situations. And some use both their own name and their husband’s.

In the summer of 1978 an English man named Steven was driving his tractor through a field of wheat when he discovered something strange. Some of his wheat was lying on the ground. The flattened wheat formed(形成)a circle about six meters across. Around this circle were four smaller circles of flattened wheat.

There years later a farmer who lived nearby discovered almost the same circles in one of his fields. These circles were larger—nearly 15 meters across. That same year, another English farmer discovered three circles of flattened wheat on his lined—one large circle between two small circles. During the following years, farmers in England found circles in their fields more and more often.

The circles are called“crop circles” because they usually appear in fields of Wheat or com. The wheat in the circles lies on the ground but is never broken; it keeps on growing, and the farmers can later harvest it. Farmers always discover the crop circles in the morning, so the circles probably form at night. They appear only in the months from May to September. What causes the crop circles?

At first, people thought that some kids were making them as a joke, or that farmers were making them to attract tourists. (In fact, in 1991, two men said they made the circles themselves, but many scientists don’t believe them. )People tried to copy them: They tried to make circles exactly like the ones the farmers had found. They couldn’t do it. They couldn’t enter a field of wheat without leaving tracks, and they couldn’t flatten the wheat without breaking it.

Several times people reported seeing strange objects near the fields where crop circles later appeared. Many people believe that these crop circles are the messages sent by living things from outer space(外屋空间)or the marks left by their spaceships.
