As a rule I can pass the time quite happily, watching the planes land and take off, but that evening I had a headache, which I thought that the noise of the engines might make worse. I decided, therefore, to walk around to make the time pass quickly.First of all I went back to the place where I had left my car to make sure that all the doors were locked. The walk in the fresh air did me good, for I felt slightly better as I entered the main airport building again. I made my way to the restaurant, where I ordered a cup of black coffee. As I stood drinking this at the counter, I studied the faces of the people around me . Some passengers were obviously anxious about the time, and kept looking at their watches; others checked to see that they had tickets, passports and money. Where there was a group of people, it was easy to tell which one was about to leave. He was the object of everyone's attention and looked either very happy or very sad at the thought of departure(分别). There was one woman who burst into tears as she said goodbye to the relatives or friends who had come to see her off.When I had finished my coffee, I went along to the bookstall, where I bought a couple of magazines, both of them about travel, which would help to make the time pass pleasantly. Then I went into one of the waiting-rooms and made myself comfortable in a big armchair. I had hardly had time to open one of my magazines when someone came up and put his hand on my shoulder. It was an old friend, who was just about to leave on a business trip to South America. Since we had not seen each other for a long time, we found plenty to talk about until the arrival of my brother's plane from Paris was announced.65.

Often they killed wild animals, birds, or fish. How did they kill the beasts? They used rocks and wooden sticks. Sometimes they fought with their own hands and bodies.Later on people began fighting each other. Everyone wanted more food and more land. Theymade arrows from sticks. They also made spears from stones.Then somebody invented the gun. Soldiers were taught how to shoot and kill enemy soldiers.Great wars were fought and many people died.A famous general cried as he looked at one battle field. His soldiers were fighting well, but he felt very sad. He turned to his men and said, "My soldiers. I am going to ask you a question. The one who gives the best answer will receive a medal. The question is this: What is the strongest power in the world?"Four soldiers raised their hands. They wanted to answer the general's question. He asked the first one to speak."Sir", said the young man, "I think my gun is the strongest power. It can kill a person or an animal from a great distance"."Thank you," said the general. "Next.” He pointed to the man who was his best soldier."A soldier is stronger," said the second man. "He must shoot the gun and aim well. A gun's power comes from the way it is used. "The third soldier thought he had the best answer of all. "No, sir," he said, "our general is the strongest power. He gives the orders for his soldiers to shoot their guns. "The general said nothing. He waited for the last man to answer his question. The fourth soldier answered the general this way: "I believe, sir, that the greatest power on earth is to love. It makes the general decide if he wants his soldiers to use their guns. Also, if men had more love for each other, they would not use their guns.
