One morning, Bill said he was ill. His mother called a taxi and took him to the doctor. The doctor asked Bill, “What’s the matter, young man?” Bill answered, “I’m feeling sick. I’m coughing(咳嗽) and having a headache(头痛). I won’t be able to go to school today, I’m afraid.” The doctor looked him over carefully, and then asked his mother, “What did he have for breakfast?” His mother said, “He had four pieces of dread, two eggs, a bottle of milk and an orange.” The doctor smiled, “Don’t worry. It’s nothing serious. The boy will be all right after the football match.” The mother said, “I don’t understand, Doctor.” The doctor smiled again,” This afternoon, the biggest football game of the year will be on TV.

Bill, Frank and Dave were three brothers. Every year they sent their mother expensive gifts on her birthday,. They liked to show her how rich they were.

The eldest brother. Bill, had a lot of money and he wanted his mother to have the most expensive gifts, but he didn’t know what to buy. So he put an ad in the newspaper. “Wanted-the greatest gift for my mother.”

About a week before his mother’s birthday a man came to his office. He brought a big bird.

“This bird.” the man said, “can speak ten languages and sing some pop songs.”

“Really?  I’d like to listen to it,” Bill said.

The man made the bird talk in French and tell a joke in Japanese. Then the bird sang a beautiful song. Bill was very happy and paid nine thousand dollars for the bird. The next day Bill sent the bird to his mother with a birthday card.

The day after his mother’s birthday he called his mother. “Well, mother” he asked, “What do you think of the bird?”

“Oh, it’s very delicious, dear.” said his mother.
