In 1935, a man was riding his motorcycle when he saw two boys in the road. He tried not to hit them, but he fell off his motorcycle and died from the accident on May 19. His name was T. E. Lawrence. When he was in his twenties, Lawrence went to the Middle East to study. World War I started, and he helped the Arabs fight against the Ottoman Empire. In 1962, they made a movie about his life. The title is “Lawrence of Arabia.” It is almost four hours long, but many people think that it is one of the best movies ever made. (by Prof. Douglas Jarrell)

I went for a walk in a park a few days ago. When I left the park, I noticed that my phone was gone. It had probably fallen out of my small jacket pocket. I walked around the park looking for it, but I never found it. Finally, I called my wife from a pay phone near the subway station and asked her to try calling my phone. I waited for five minutes and called back. She said that the phone was at a nearby police station. The police officer saw that I was able to open the phone and gave it back to me after checking my ID card. I just wish I could thank the kind person who found it! (by Prof. Douglas Jarrell)
