Buster doesn’t let Mr Emmons talk to people very long. He likes to keep moving. It takes four and one-half months to walk to every house in this part of the city. Mr Emmons visits each house every four months, and by then the people are usually ready to buy new brooms.
Mr Emmons likes his job. He’s very healthy because he works outside every day. But these days he has a problem. His brooms last so long that sometimes they are still good after four months. Then nobody needs to buy a new one.
Mr Emmonds is proud of his brooms because blind people make them. He picks up a new supply of brooms every week. He says, «If you don’t sell people something good, they are not going to buy from you the second time you come around».

«Hallowe’en is a Holiday For Children»
Hallowe’en is an autumn holiday that Americans celebrate every year. It means «holy evening,» and it comes every October 31, the evening before All-Saints Day. However, it’s not really a church holiday; it’s a holiday for children. Every autumn, when the vegetables are ready to eat, children pick large orange pumpkins. Then they cut faces in the pumpkins and put lights inside. It looks like there is a person looking out of the pumpkin! |
|
Vocabulary:
autumn a holiday celebrate holy All-Saints Day orange a pumpkin a jack-o’-lantern a lantern |
a mask frightening a costume a monster a trick a treat an adult candy UNICEF |
These lights are called jack-o’-lanterns, which means «Jack of the lantern.»
The children also put on strange masks and frightening costumes every Hallowe’en. Some children paint their faces to look like monsters. Then they carry boxes or bags from house to house. Every time they come o a new house, they say, «Trick or treat! Money or eat!» The adults put a treat - money or candy - in their bags.
Some children think of other people on Hallowe’en. They carry boxes for UNICEF (The United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund). They ask for money to help poor children all around the world. Of course, every time they help UNICEF, they usually receive a treat for themselves, too.
