Passage 1 - The Barber
Ben needs a haircut, so he goes to the barber. He sits in the barber chair, a big metal chair with a worn leather seat. The barber cranks Ben into position, puts a cloth around his neck, sprays his hair with water, and looks at his hair. He asks Ben how he'd like his hair to be cut. Ben says he wants his hair to be short—but not too short. The barber nods and takes out a comb, a pair of scissors, and a mirror. The barber combs Ben’s hair and then he begins to cut. After fifteen minutes, the barber stops cutting. He steps back and hands Ben the mirror. Ben likes what he sees.
Passage 2 - The Dentist
One day, Leroy notices a pain in his gums in the back of his mouth. He rubs his cheek and hopes it will go away. Unfortunately, it doesn't. Five days later, the pain is still there, and it is getting worse. Leroy determines that it is his tooth that is causing the pain. It aches and aches. It hurts so bad that Leroy starts to have trouble sleeping. A few more days pass and Leroy decides he's had enough, so he goes to the dentist. Leroy sits in the dentist chair. The dentist fastens a piece of paper around Leroy’s neck, puts on protective glasses, pulls a mask over her face, and uncovers her tools. She has a light, a mirror, and a drill. The dentist shines the light in Leroy’s mouth. She looks at the teeth in the very back of Leroy's mouth in the mirror. She finds the sore tooth and reaches for the drill. Leroy gets nervous when he hears the noise it makes, but the doctor reassures him that everything is fine. After fifteen minutes, the dentist fixes Leroy’s tooth.
