A student was one day taking a walk with his teacher. As they went along, they saw a pair of old shoes lying in the path. They were a poor farmer’s, who was working in the nearby field.

The student turned to the teacher, saying:“we will hide his shoes, and hide ourselves behind those trees, and wait to see what he will do”

“My young friend,” answered the teacher, “we should never make fun of the poor. Why not put a coin in each shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and watch?”  The student did so and they both hid themselves behind the trees. The poor man soon finished his work, and came across the field to the path where he had left his coat and shoes.

After putting on his coat, he put his foot into one of his shoes, and felt something hard. Then he bent down to feel what it was, and found the coin. Surprised, he looked at the coin, turned it around and looked at it again. He then looked around, but no person was seen. He put the money into his pocket, and continued to put on the other shoe.

　　A strange thing happened in our garden the other day. I went out to play with the dog for a few minutes, and 1 that the dog was barking 2 a big tree. I went to look at it and saw a hole at the 3 of the tree. I didn't know how long it had been there.

　　The dog was very 4 and started to dig at the hole. 5 what was in the hole, I got the garden hose (软管) and turned 6 the water. Then I pushed the hose 7 the hole and waited to see what would happen.

　　At first nothing happened. 8 suddenly a large rat rushed out of the hole, ran 9 the garden and disappeared into some waste ground behind the garden. 10 this unexpected incident, the poor dog was 11 to react. It ran to the fence and 12 into the trees, but without any 13 .

　　Now 14 we go into the garden, the dog always goes to the hole and waits eagerly 15 to the hole again.
