The old man looks at the stranger but he doesn't answer. The stranger says to himself, "This old man can't hear me clearly. I will ask him again. " Then he asks the old man loudly. The old man thinks for a while, but he still doesn't answer.
At this time, this stranger is very angry and shouts at the old man, "How long will it take me to walk to the next village?" But the old man doesn't give him any answer. So the stranger begins to walk quickly to the village.

Many people drink tea every day. But more than three hundred years ago, most of the people in Europe didn't know anything about tea.
Here is a story about an English sailor (水手). He went to India and China where tea was popular. One day, he came home for Christmas holiday. He gave his mother some tea as a present. She told her friends about the present and asked them to come to a "tea party". When her friends came, the old woman took out some tea leaves and asked them to eat. Of course, they didn't like the tea leaves. Just at that time, the sailor came in. He looked at the table and asked, "Mother, what did you do with the tea?"
"I boiled (煮沸) it as you said. "
"And what did you do with the water?"
"I poured (倒) it away, of course," answered the mother.
"Now you may throw away the leaves, too," said the sailor.
Once upon a time, a rich man wanted to make a trip (旅行) to another town. He took ten servants (仆人) with him. They had to carry things to sell and some food to eat on their trip.
Before they started, a little boy ran up and asked to go with them.
The rich man said to the little boy, "Well, you may go with us. Because you are the smallest, the thinnest and the weakest of all my servants, you can't carry a heavy load (担子). You must choose the lightest one to carry. " The boy thanked his master and chose the biggest load to carry. That was bread.
"You are foolish. " said his master, "That is the biggest and the heaviest one. " The boy said nothing and lifted the load gladly.
On the trip they walked for days and at last they got to the town. All the servants were tired except the little servant. Do you know why? Most of the bread was eaten during the trip and a little was left when they arrived at the town.
It is Sunday today. Ann is shopping with her mother. She wants her mother to buy a new sweater for her. In a clothing shop, she finds an orange one. She tries it on (试穿). It is too small. She wants a bigger one, but the bigger ones are not orange. Ann doesn't like other colours. Her mother asks, "Shall we go to another shop to have a look?" So they go out of the shop and go into another one.
The second shop is bigger than the first, and in it there are many kinds of sweaters of different sizes and colours. Ann tries on an orange one. It is too big. She tries a smaller one. It is OK.
"How much is it?" Ann's mother asks the women who sells clothes. Then they find it too dear (贵), and they don't have so much money with them.
"Would you like a cheaper one?" The women asks.
"No, we shall take this one. My daughter likes it. We will come back to buy it tomorrow. " Ann's mother answers.
