Ответ:There was a lot of work to do at the waste paper collection point: sort the paper, compress it into bundles, stack it neatly, and make room for a new batch. Nikolai worked diligently all day, got tired and lay down to rest. After the day's hustle and bustle, it was unusually quiet. Nikolai was just beginning to fall asleep when he heard a hoarse rustle. It was an old history textbook that was talking, and it was offended at its owner, who had learned through the efforts of many textbooks and now threw all the "old stuff" into the recycling center as unnecessary. The textbook was old, and he had recently celebrated his fortieth birthday-a respectable age for a battered "old man" . Once it was new and beautiful. Its glossy pages told of exciting events — the flight of man into space, the exploration of Antarctica and the Northern sea route. His place was on a brand-new bookcase, where it is easy to get a book and read about the limitless possibilities of man. But life does not stand still. The owners bought new furniture - "wall", threw the textbook on the mezzanine and for a long time forgot about its existence. During the next cleaning, the textbook was taken out and cut out of it interesting pictures. This terribly offended the "old man" , and now he was just thrown out. Well not burned! Soon it will be recycled: it will be made into paper on which a new textbook, reference book or dictionary will be printed. This somewhat reconciled the "old man" to the fate that had befallen him. What Nikolai heard in his half-sleep seemed like a dream. The next morning, he tried to remember "textbook revelations," but then he laughed at himself for doing such nonsense. It was time to load the waste paper and send it to recycling, the truck driver was already hurrying Nikolai.
