Mr. Smith argued with his wife. He was very   1  her, and she was   2 very angry with her husband. For   3  days they didn’t   4  each other at all.
One evening Mr. Smith was very tired when he came back from his office.   5  he said nothing to his wife. After supper, Mr. Smith went upstairs and Mrs. Smith washed the dishes and   6  some sewing. When she went up to bed, she found her husband had fallen   7 . On her bed, she saw a piece of paper, on it   8  the words, “Mother,   9  at 7 o’clock tomorrow morning. Father.”
When Mr. Smith woke up the next morning, it was nearly 8 o’clock. On the small table near his bed he saw   10  piece of paper. He took it and read these words. “Father, wake up. It’s 7 o’clock now. Mother.”

When Mr. Smith retired(退休), he bought a small  21  in a village near the sea. He   22  it and hoped to live a quiet life in this house.
But to his great surprise, many tourists came to see his house in summer holidays, for it was the most   23   building in the village. From morning to night there were  24   outside the house. They kept looking into the rooms through the windows and  25  of them even went into Mr. Smith’s garden. This was too much for Mr. Smith. He decided to ask the visitors to  26  . So he put a notice on the window. The notice said, “If you want  27  your curiosity(好奇心)，come in and look round. Price: twenty dollars.” Mr. Smith was sure that the visitors would   28  coming, but he was wrong. More and more visitors came and Mr. Smith had to  29  every day showing them around his house.“I came here to relax not to work   30  a guide（導游）,”he said angrily. In the end, he sold the house and moved away.

Mr Smith had two sons.One was seven years old, and the other was five.One morning during the holiday, when Mr Smith was cleaning the car, his younger son came and asked him for some money for sweets.

‘Sweets are bad for your teeth,’ Mr Smith said.‘Take these two oranges instead, and give one to your brother.’

One orange was much bigger than the other, and as the small boy likes oranges very much, he kept the bigger one for himself, and gave his brother the smaller one.When the other boy saw that, he said, ’It’s selfish to take the bigger for yourself.If Father had given me the oranges, I’d have given you the bigger one.’

‘I know you would,’ answered his brother.‘That’s why I took it.’
