He was a news paper boy. Each morning, Bill left the house at five fifteen to go to the corner. The newspapers had been sent to the corner by truck at midnight. He always rode a bike to carry them. In the winter it was still dark when he got up, but during the rest of the year it was bright. Bill had to send the newspapers to the houses in all kinds of weather. He tried to put each paper in the box where it would be kept safe from wind, rain or snow. His customers thought he did a good job. Sometimes they gave him tips. Bill made about $70 each month, and he was saving some of the money to go to college. He spent the rest on tapes and clothes. Once a month he had to get the money from his customers together. Since many of them worked during the day, Bill had to get the money at night. Sometimes when Bill was ill, his elder brother had to send the newspapers. Bill had 70 customers now, but he hoped to get more soon. Some day, if he got many more customers, perhaps Bill could win a prize for being a very good newspaper boy. He wanted to win a visit to Europe, but he would be happy if he won a new bike. 1. Where did Bill get the newspapers every morning? ________________________________ 2.
