听一分钟英文：People-人们

“People are strange¹, when they are strangers².” That’s from a famous³ song. I do agree⁴ with it, although⁵ I do think all people are strange. It’s a good thing that people are strange. If we were all the same, life⁶ would⁷ be boring⁸. It’s the fact⁹ that we are all strange that makes us all different. I like people from all over the world. It’s sad that all people don’t get along¹⁰. Many people say I’m strange. I’m not sure why. I always think I’m pretty normal¹¹. The people I like best are those who help other people. They make the world a better place. The people I hate¹² most are greedy¹³ people. They usually take the things other people need. All people need to think more about how they can help others¹⁴.
