Benjamin Franklin
Few people can embody the spirit of early America as much as Benjamin Franklin. He
lived through almost the whole of the eighteenth century, being born six years after it began,
and dying ten years before it ended. In this time he saw the American colonies grow from
tiny settlements into a nation, and he also contributed much to the development of the new
state.
At the age of 17 Franklin ran away to Philadelphia. He had already received some
training as a printer’s apprentice, and this helped him seven years later, with his first
publication, the Pennsylvania Gazette. He also received a contract to do government printing
work, which helped him to rise from his poor background to become a successful
entrepreneur. Some of his experience in business was shared in his famous Poor Richard’s
Almanak, which established his reputation throughout the American colonies. In another of
his works, the Autobiography, which was written toward the end of his life, he shows the
same quiet common sense.
He was deeply interested in science and natural history, and his experiments with
electricity and lightning led directly to the invention of the lightning rod. He was also
interested in improving the conditions of his fellow men. He was involved in a number of
projects in his native Philadelphia, including the setting up of a library, a university, a
philosophical society, and - because he was a pragmatic man - a fire prevention service. In
1753 he became Postmaster-General of the colonies. Through this experience he began to
develop the idea that the colonies of North America should be a single nation. Later, he went
to London to try to persuade the British government to change the conditions, especially the
taxes, that later led the American colonists into rebellion.
Whatever Benjamin Franklin’s personal feelings about the rebellion of the American
states, he worked hard to make it succeed. As ambassador to France, he encouraged the
French to help George Washington. After the war he attended the American constitutional

MY VILLAGE
I live in a village by Mekong River. Every day, like most of my friends, I walk to school. It is
three kilometers away. After class, I often help my mother to collect water from the river
and feed the chickens. At the weekend, the villagers often gather at the community hall
where there is a TV. The adults watch TV, but more often they talk about their farm work
and exchange news. The children run around, playing games and shouting merrily. Laughter
is heard everywhere.
My father sometimes takes me to the market town nearby where he sells our home products
like vegetables, fruits, eggs… He then buys me an ice cream and lets me take a ride on the
electric train in the town square. I love those trips.
On starry nights, we children lie on the grass, looking at the sky and daring each other to
find the Milky Way. We dream of faraway places.
Answer the following questions.
1/ Does the boy like riding on the electric train in the town square?
