Many of us have ever loved the two toy bears --- a brown Teddy bear and a yellow Winnie – the – Pooh bear. The two toy bears come from real stories in life.
In 1902, Theodore Roosevelt, President of the USA, went on hunting. The hunting dogs found an old bear in the forest near Washington D.C. and the guide asked the president to shoot it. But President Roosevelt disagreed. A cartoonist drew a cartoon showing that the president refused to shoot the bear. Soon, the bear began to appear in other newspapers. People named the bear Teddy which was Theodore’s nickname (昵称).
In 1913, a captain named Harry Colebourn paid 20 dollars for a black bear which was born in the Canadian countryside. The captain’s hometown, Winnipeg, was the origin(起源)of the bear’s name. In Winnipeg, Winnie served as the mascot(吉祥物).When World War I began, the captain went to France. Winnie was sent to London Zoo which many kids often visited. Because of its lovely look, the bear became popular with children.

The story behind the shopping cart
Characters
Sylvan Goldman – owner of a grocery shop
Fred Young – Sylvan’s friend, a mechanic(机械师)
One night in 1936, in an American city. Inside Fred’s workshop, Sylvan sits next to Fred, who is making adjustments(调试) to their new i – a shopping cart.
Sylvan: My customers don’t like our shopping cart.
Fred: Really? So they p shopping with those heavy baskets?
Sylvan: (nods) I’ve got a huge crowd of customers every day, b none of them wants to use the cart.
Fred: I don’t understand. We invented the cart so that people don’t need to carry a basket around the shop.
Sylvan: (laughs) And so that they will buy more groceries!
Fred: So why don’t they like the shopping cart?
Sylvan: Young men think that pushing a cart around makes them look w and slow, and young women think it’s unfashionable.
Fred: Of course it isn’t fashionable right now. It’s only just been invented! But I’m sure older people will appreciate it.
Sylvan: Um…
Fred: What? They don’t like the cart e?
Sylvan: Well, they think pushing it makes them look helpless!
Fred: Oh no. We need to do something, Fred. We can’t just g up on this invention!
Sylvan: We won’t. (He gets up and walks around the room. Suddenly, he stops.) Aha! I’ve got an idea.

Fred: What is it?
Sylvan: I’ll hire(雇佣) some good-looking guys and girls to push the carts around and pretend they’re shopping.
Fred: Oh! So the real shoppers will see these attractive people using the carts and think, “Hey, if it’s good enough for them, it’s good enough for me!”
Sylvan: E .
Fred: Hey! Maybe you could get one of the girls to greet your customers and encourage them to use the cart.
Sylvan: Great idea!
