题目内容
The businessman traveled far and worked hard until, finally, it was time to set off home. He packed all the presents he had bought, but decided to get a fresh rose for his youngest daughter called Bella when he was closer to home. On his journey home, a terrible storm came.
Luckily, the businessman found a place to shelter(躲避).He ran to the door. To his surprise, it was open but the house seemed empty. It looked warm and welcoming. In he went.
"Is there anybody home?" he called. But there was nobody to be seen or a sound to be heard. Tired and wet, the businessman sat down by the fire.
Invisible(无形的)hands gave him warm drink and good food. Invisible hands put a cushion(垫子)behind his head. He couldn't believe his eyes. "I must be dreaming," he thought.
Next morning, the businessman awoke and remembered he had to get a rose for Bella. In the garden, he found a beautiful rose bush. He started to dig up a small part of it. Then he heard a terrible roar(咆哮),"How dare you take my rose!"
Suddenly, a great hary beast(野兽)appeared, roaring loudly.
"Please don't hurt me!" begged the businessman. "I'll do anything." "Then you must promise to send me the first creature(生物)you see when you get home." "Aha!" thought the businessman, "I will see the chickens around my door first." So he gave his promise.
Sadly, the first creature he saw was not a chicken, a cat or a dog. It was Bella, who came running out to greet him. The businessman went as pale as moonlight. He told her the whole story. Bella did not think twice. "A promise is a promise," she said. (To be continued…)
