Một cô gái ở tuổi vị thành niên của mình cho một gia đình giàu có một đêm. Gia đình giàu có có một ngôi nhà rất lớn với nhiều phòng. Nó được làm đầy với rất nhiều đồ tạo tác và đồ trang trí cũ từ khắp nơi trên thế giới. Khi cha mẹ rời đi để đi ra ngoài, người cha nói với cô gái rằng một khi cô đặt những đứa trẻ xuống, cô phải đi xuống tầng hầm, xem TV ở đó, và không đi lang thang quanh nhà.
Khi những đứa trẻ đang ngủ, cô gái nghỉ hưu trong phòng tầng hầm để xem TV. Tuy nhiên, cô không thể tập trung vào chương trình của mình bởi vì trong góc phòng là một bức tượng chú hề kích cỡ cuộc sống cười toe toét với cô. Cuối cùng cô quyết định treo chăn lên bức tượng để cô có thể bỏ qua nó. Sau một lúc, cô không thể đứng nhìn vào đôi chân quá lớn của bức tượng chú nhô ra từ dưới tấm chăn. Cô quyết định gọi cho người cha và yêu cầu sự cho phép của mình để xem TV trong một căn phòng khác, bởi vì cô bị bối rối bởi bức tượng chú hề khổng lồ trong phòng tầng hầm.
“Nghe rất cẩn thận,” người đàn ông nói với cô gái.
“Các con của chúng tôi đã phàn nàn về một chú hề đi vào phòng của họ vào giữa đêm. Chúng tôi chỉ nghĩ đó là những cơn ác mộng. Chúng tôi không sở hữu một bức tượng chú hề. Bạn cần phải có được những đứa trẻ và nhận ra khỏi nhà NGAY BÂY GIỜ! Tôi sẽ gọi cảnh sát."

It was a great to see you again after so long and to be able to discuss about all the things we used to do when we were students together learning english in London. I hope you had a good time journey home. Did the flight reach to Athens in time for you to get up your connection? I hope so. Do you remember I promised to send you that a book we talked about? Well, I've searched in everywhere for it but so far I haven't managed to find it. As soon as I will do, I'll put it in the post to for you - it's a really exciting story. And now I'd like to ask you about a favor, ont for me but for mys sister. She wants to have a work in Greece. She doesn't mind what she does- she would be to happy to work in a bar or to look after children. So if only you know of anything, please let us know. She'd like to spend until one year there from next January, which it should be possible. I think. She has been decided it is the best thing for her. I'm looking forward to know hearing from you soon. Give my regards to your family.
Best wishes, Costars

It is great to have pen pals. In my opinion, friendship is among the meaningful relations in our life. Many of my friends have pen pals and they correspond regularly. A friend of mine once got a letter from the school mailbox and told me a lot of interesting things about her pen pal. That made me excited and I was eager to have one. Therefore, I got online and did some chatting. I was lucky to get to know a very nice Australian girl. Her name's Jenny. She and I are the same age and we have a lot of things in common.
Although my English was not very good at first, we were able to understand each other quite well. My English has improved a lot. Jenny has never been to Viet Nam. However, she thinks well of our country and our people. When she comes to Viet Nam, I will take her to some interesting places, especially our World Heritage Sites, such as Ha Long Bay, Hoi An Ancient Town, My- Son Tower. Through her mail, she tells me about her country. Thanks to Jenny, I know more and more about Australia. I hope to be an exchange student in Australia some day and we will be able to meet.

Did you know that you do not have to be a chemist to invent something? An example of chemistry invention that was made by a non-scientist is Liquid Paper. In 1952, a divorced woman named Bette Nesmith Graham needed to work to support herself and her son. Life was very difficult for a single mother. [1] She soon found a job as a typist, but she was not very good at it. [2] She made a lot of errors typing leading her to formulate a white tempura paint to hide them. [3] Using her kitchen as a laboratory, she developed a liquid that other people wanted to buy and use. She named this liquid “Mistake Out” [4]
While continuing to work as a secretary, she educated herself in business methods, promotion, and research until she was satisfied that the product she had developed was really worthwhile. Sometimes around 1952 she offered “Mistake Out” to IBM, which turned it down. From 1952 until 1979 she continued to make and sell “Mistake Out”, now renamed “Liquid Paper”, out of her home.
