Question

Mr. Brown had lived in a village before he became a famous lawyer. He remembered his hard life during studying in the college. And his parents borrowed much money for him. So he worked hard and tried his best to get more money.

Now he lives in a beautiful house with his family and his son Richard is clever. He likes the boy very much and sent him to the best school in the city. He hopes Richard to live a happy life and buys everything the boy wants. He wishes his son could become a great scientist.

But he doesn’t know Richard hates studying and spends much time in playing. Now he’s interested in fishing and sometimes cuts classes. So he failed in the exams. Miss Young, his head teacher, tells him not to do that, but he doesn’t listen to her. She became angry after the boy was late again one afternoon.

“I’ll visit your father tomorrow evening, Richard.” said Miss Young. “I’ll ask him a good way to educate you.”

“You’d better not talk with him, madam,” said the boy. “Or you’ll pay for a fee(费) for his advisory service !”
