Big Bens story started in 1834. In that year the old parliament building burned down. Its clock tower crashed to the ground. There had to be a new building and a new clock. Plans were made.

These printed things look like newspaper but have hardly anything to do with them. You can only find reading material badly _2make up_ there - some are too strange for anyone to believe, _3others_ are frightening stories of something even worse. However, many of the young students are getting absorbed in such poisonous reading, which costs them what they should pay for their breakfast and bring them nightmares and immoral ideas _4in_ return. Homework is left undone, daily games lost. These sellers shout on streets selling their papers well. The writers, publishers and printers, _5whoever_ they are, we never know, are making their silent money. The sheep skinned wolfs stories seem to have been forgotten once again. Why not forbid this kind of things at school? Yes, both teachers and parents have _6asked_ each other for more strict control of the young readers. Yet unfortunately, _7the more_ you want to forbid it, the more they want to have a look at it. Sometimes you may even find several children share one patched paper, which has traveled from one hand to _8another_ driven by the curious nature. It really does harm to our society.
