Long long ago,there lived a very cruel sultan.Sultan ruled his kingdom with an iron fist(鐵拳).Everyone in the land did exactly what sultan ordered.The kingdom’s prisons(監(jiān)獄) were full of people who had not done what the sultan had ordered.

As the sultan’s next birthday came,everyone was too afraid to get up and face the day.Luckily, most people had nothing to worry about except Ali and Baboo, for they were told to go before the sultan.They were told to take part in a camel race.The winner of the race was the person whose camel came last.The loser would get five years in prison.

Ali and Baboo came to the starting line of the race and set off,but very very slowly.Neither man wanted to go in front of the other.So before long their camels stopped.They had no idea.

The kingdom’s wisest person, a woman named Shiraz, came to the two men.She whispered something in each other’s ear.Then each man leaped (跳躍) on a camel and rode the camels--faster and faster.They raced towards the finish line as quickly as they could.

Everyone was surprised at what was happening.One man asked Shiraz what she had told the camel riders.“Simple,”she said,“I just told each of them to get on the other man’s camel.After all, the winner is the person whose camel comes last.”

1.How did sultan rule his kingdom?

2.How many people had a lot to worry about in the kingdom?

3.How long would the loser be in prison if one of them failed in the camel race?

4.Who was the kingdom’s wisest person?

5.What do you think of Shiraz’s idea?

American people like to say “Thank you” when others help them or say something kind to them. People of many countries do so, too. It is a very good habit. You should say “Thank you” when someone passes you the salt on the table, when someone walking ahead of you keeps the door open for you, when someone says you have done your work well, or you have bought a nice thing, or your city is very beautiful. “Thank you” is used not only between friends, but also between parents and children, brothers and sisters.

“ Excuse me ” is another short sentence they use. When you hear someone say so behind you, you know that somebody wants to walk past you without touching you. It’s not polite(禮貌) to break others when they are talking. If you want to speak to one of them, say “Excuse me” first, and then begin talking. You should also do so when you begin to cough or make any noise before others.

Let’s learn to say “ Thank you” and “Excuse me”.

1.You should say “Thank you” when ______.
