1. Litter is Ugly
Litter is a garbage – like food, paper, and cans – on the ground or in the street. Where many people live together, litter is a problem. People don’t always put their garbage into the garbage can. It is easier to just drop a piece of paper on the ground than to find a garbage can for it. Litter makes the city look dirty, and it spoils the view. Wind can blow papers far away. Often they are difficult to catch.
Litter is a health problem, too.
Food and garbage bring animals, which sometimes carry disease.
Some people want to control litter. They never throw litter themselves, and sometimes they work together in groups to clean up the city. In most places litter is against the
law. The law punishes people who throw garbage on the streets.
They usually pay a fine.

3. George and Mr. Grey
George worked in San Francisco. He wasn’t married, and he usually had his lunch, and occasionally his dinner, in small restaurants. One evening he decided to go to an expensive restaurant and when he got in, he saw a large, heavy-set man whom he had
not seen for several years, sitting at a table alone.
He thought for a few moments and then he remembered the man’s name.
So, he went up to him and said politely: “Hello, Mr. Grey. How is business?”
“ Oh, it’s not good at all” the large man answered. George looked at the expensive food and wine on Mr. Grey’s table and was surprised. “It certainly doesn’t look as if your business is bad,” he said. Mr. Grey answered sadly:
“Well, I am afraid you’re wrong. A few years ago I was doing very well, and I could
afford to bring my wife to this place for dinner to.”
