A traveler came out of the airport. There were a lot of taxis. He asked every taxi driver his name. Then he took the third one. It cost 5 dollars from the airport to the hotel. "How much does it cost for the whole day?" The man asked. "100 dollars," said the taxi driver. This was very expensive, but the man said it was OK.

    The taxi driver took the man everywhere. He showed him all the parks and museums in the city. In the evening they went back to the hotel. The traveler gave the taxi driver 100 dollars and said, "What about tomorrow? It's another 100 dollars. "But the man said, "That's OK! See you tomorrow." The taxi driver was very pleased.

    The next day the taxi driver took the traveler everywhere again. They visited all the parks and museums again, and in the evening they went back to the hotel. The man gave the taxi driver 100 dollars again and said, "I'm going home tomorrow." The taxi driver was sorry because he liked the traveler and, above all, 100 dollars a day was a lot of money. "So you're going home. Where do you come from?" he asked. "I come from New York!" said the traveler. "I have a sister in New York. Her name is Susanna.  Do you know her?" "Of course I know her. She gave me 200 dollars for you! "

    You don't have to be bored on a rainy day. Here are some new ideas：

    Tell stories. You might tell stories you heard before, or you might make up some really wonderful stories.

   ①   

    You can learn to cook a pizza or maybe some cookies. Give your friends a chance to help in the kitchen and make something tasty.

   ②   

    You might write stories on your own and then read them aloud to others, or you might write a story together.

   ③   

    Think of some scenes and then play a game. Act as teachers, doctors, nurses or policemen. You can dress up in whatever you may have.

   ④   

    Pick out some music and dance around in the room. You can also sing while others are dancing.

    Soon the next rainy day, try some of these ideas for a day full of fun!
