In a small town, there lived a doctor. He was good and kind. He was ready to go and help people. People always went to him when they were ill.
Many years later, the doctor began to forget things. People were afraid and little by little, they stopped going to him. The doctor saw his business wasn’t as good as before. He thought, “Well, if I was the patient (病人), I’d be afraid to go to me, too. Maybe it’s time for me to stop being a doctor. But this town has no doctor. What will the people do when they become ill? ”
His wife heard him talking to himself and said, “Why don’t you find a young doctor to take your place Then people will have another good doctor to take care of them and I will get my husband back.”
The doctor liked what his wife said. He found a very good young doctor to help the people. The doctor and his wife then had time to take long walks together, go dancing, go travelling and spend the rest(剩余部分) of their days together.
