Mr Smith is travelling in India and he is staying in a small town. One early morning he goes to the market
(市场)and sees a very beautiful carpet(毯子)there. He likes it very much, so he goes to the seller and asks about price.“This is a very special(特殊的)carpet, sir.”says the seller.“It’s beautiful, isn’t it?”“Yes, it’s very beautiful, but…”“And it’s very old, sir.
