A rich man began to learn drawing when he was 60, and he loved it very much. He drew and drew. After 20 years, there were a lot of pictures in his workroom. He thought they were very good and kept them well.

One day the old man was ill in bed, but he didn’t forget his pictures. Before he died, he said to Tom, his little grandson, “I want to give these pictures to a school, then the students will never forget me. But which school am I going to give them to, my child?”

“Well”, said the little boy, “ You ‘d better give them to a blind school.”

八年级英语听力词汇：A Cup of English 2016 A Visiting Student

The number of people in my house has grown from six to seven recently. A young man from Spain has come to spend six weeks with us. He is no ordinary young man; he's actually my second cousin, and is here to spend time with this side of the family, and of course, to learn English. Thankfully, he is the same age as my youngest son, and is very fun-loving. I'm sure that he will pick up(1) a lot of English while he plays with my kids. That was actually how I picked up a lot of Spanish when I was a child. My mother would take me to Mallorca in Spain, to spend about a month in the summers. Because children play so much, and are less inhibited than adults, they absorb language like little sponges. Well, that's what happened to me, and I'm very thankful for the experience. So far(2), we have taken my cousin to Seattle for a couple of days, and down to a local river to look for gold. Today, I plan on taking him to the museum in the town of Cashmere which is excellent. He will get his first view of Native American life, and be able to walk through some of the original pioneer cabins of this area. Like most boys who are thirteen, he is very curious and constantly asks questions. Of course, I don't always have the answers! Coming to the U.S is a big step for him, especially being so young(3). Mind you, he is a world traveller. His mother is an air hostess and is able to get cheap airline tickets, so they travel internationally all the time. So he is extremely comfortable in airports, and understands the routines of getting from one place to another. I hope that him being here will encourage my children to spend time in Spain, and also become international travelers. 1. 'To pick up' is used in this podcast to mean 'to come to understand', ' to learn in a natural way'.

a. When we went to Iceland, my kids picked up a lot of vocabulary.

b. I used to watch my mum cook, and so, over time I picked up how to cook.

2. 'So far' is like saying 'up to this point'. It is a very simple and conversational phrase.

a. So far this summer, we have only had a few very hot days.

b. The fund-raiser so far has made $2,430,000.
