My grandfather used to have a beautiful gold pocket watch. He wore it on a fine gold chain across the front of his waistcoat, and when I was small he promised to leave it to me in his will.
"When I’m gone," he said, "this is going to be yours."
Unfortunately that will never happen now. About three months ago, my grandfather came up to London to visit us. The first Sunday morning after he arrived, my youngest son said he wanted to go to the park.
"We’ll do better than that," said my grandfather, "we’ll go and feed the pigeons in Trafalgar Square." SO off they went. They got home about teatime and my grandfather was looking very upset.
"My watch," he said, "it’s gone. Someone must have stolen it while we were feeding the pigeons."

Mr. Jones: What materials were used for road surfaces during the last century
Engineer: Usually they were gravel and macadam. Tars and asphalt were originally used only as coverings, but later they were used as binders and finally as hot mixtures.
Mr. Jones: Concrete is a modem material as far as road - building goes, isn’ t it
Engineer: Relatively speaking. But you might be surprised to know that a concrete road was built as early as 1893 in Ohio. But it was only 5 miles long. More extensive projects were not undertaken until much later, around 1912 or 1913.
Mr. Jones: This was because of the increase in traffic
Engineer: That’ s right. Especially in the use of heavy tracks. More rigid pavements, such as concrete and brick, became a necessity. For light traffic, though, water-bound macadam, gravel, sand clay, and bituminous mixtures were still used.
Mr. Jones: What are turnpikes usually made of
En
A. the increase in traffic
B. the cost of other materials

At Christmas I can get many presents, but one present that I especially like to get is a book. It doesn’t matter what kind of book it is. It can be a novel, a book of poems or a book of plays. I enjoy them all.
I sometimes get books from the Public Library. We have a very good one in our town, and the librarian gives me articles about literature and helps me to find good books. I also buy books, particularly those that I have read before and have enjoyed. I put them on my shelves and I can read them again and again. I feel that these books are my friends.
