Levi Strauss was born in Germany in the mid 1800's and emigrated to the United States as a young man He lived in New York City and learned the dry-goods business for several years In 1853 he took his knowledge and his dreams to San Francisco (California., USA.) His dream to succeed came true over the next 20 years as he became a very
successful businessman.
Many of Levi Strauss' customers were cowboys and miners They needed clothing that was strong and durable Strauss found a special fabric from France that was comfortable and lasted a long time It was called "serge de Nimes," which was later shortened to the word denim
Another man named Jacob Davis bought large amounts of the denim fabric from Levi Strauss He was a tailor who made pants for hard-working men One of his customers was continually tearing the pockets off his pants So Jacob Davis decided to put rivets on certain parts of the pants to make them stronger The customer loved the new pants so much that he told all his friends, and soon Jacob Davis was busy making lots of pants with rivets.
Jacob Davis soon realized that using rivets was a great business idea, and he didn't want anybody to steal that idea He decided that he would need to get a patent But being a poor tailor, he didn't have enough money to pay for the patent After thinking it over, he went to the businessman Levi Strauss and told him his idea He said, "If you agree to pay for the patent, we will share the profits from the riveted pants." Levi Strauss did agree, and the new riveted pant business was called Levi Strauss and Company Today Levi's jeans are more popular than ever, and Levi's name continues to live on.

Trang 10Take a Bath!
Traveling is fun because you can see how people in other parts of the world live One thing
travelers don't often think about before traveling is how other cultures bathe And bathrooms in
many countries may be different from the kind you are used to.
In the United States, most people take a shower once a day in the morning The showerhead is
usually mounted on the wall and cannot be moved The bather simply stands under the water,
gets wet, scrubs with soap and often a washcloth, and then rinses off.
Children often take a bath each night and enjoy playing with small toys such as boats and rubber ducks Many adults, especially women, enjoy a soothing bath to get rid of stress at the end of the day.
It is important to remember that when you take a shower or bath in the United States, you should be careful to keep the water inside the bathtub or shower Unlike bathrooms in many countries, there is no drain in the floor If water gets on the floor it cannot go anywhere and must be cleaned up with a towel or mop It can also cause problems for the floor
So be careful.
