What's BALL read?

When I have free time, I usually read books. I like to read many kind of books such as science, history, sports, and fashion. I prefer to read the history while I have free time. For example, I often read about the ancient chinese, especially silk road. "Silk road" it means the path of ancient chinese, local poeple near the road and european people to use in traveling between Asia and Europe. And chinese poeple usually use silk instead of gold to excahnge the products and were able to pay the taxes in china. Silks were very popular in china and Roman too!. Silks which were imported from china to sell in Roman were very expensive. Likewise, the value of it was at the salary of soilder in Roman use all year!

    Ball,
    Thank you for posting again on this topic. It's very good. You gave a general statement about your reading, then narrowed it down to history, and then you narrowed that down to Chinese history, and a very specific topic in Chinese history, about which you give a concise summary. Your last sentence is a great final detail.

    Was this just ten minutes?
