It was said that during the Eastern Han Dynasty, a monster could make everyone ill and die if it appeared（出现）.There was a young man named Huan Jing. After he lost his parents, he learned magic（魔法）from a famous man. The man could predict the future.
One day the man asked Huan Jing to go home because the monster was going to appear on the 9th day of the 9th lunar month. Also, the man told him to take the people to the top of the mountain and give each person a leaf and a cup of wine. The advice and Huan Jing’s brave fighting saved all the people, and the monster was beaten to death.
Today, people believe climbing a high mountain on this day will bring them good luck and help the old live longer.

We live in the “ Computer Age”. People like scientists, teachers, writers and students use computers to do all kinds of works. But more than 30 years ago, computers couldn’t do much. They were very big and expensive. Very few people were interested in them and knew how to use them. Today computers are smaller and cheaper. Since they can do a lot of work, many people like to use them. Some people even have them at home.
Computers become very important because they can work faster than men and make fewer mistakes. Computers can help people do a lot of work. Writers now use computers to write. Teachers use them to help teaching. Students use them to study and children use them to play games. Computers can also remember what you put into them. Computers are very useful and helpful. They are our good friends. Do you want a computer?Who use computers to do all kinds of works?
