This year, Birch will have a concert in the city of Flint, Michigan. Birch spends lots of time preparing for it — he knows lots of his fans will come and enjoy his performance (表演) , and he won't like to let them down.
The big moment finally comes. Birch comes into the hall happily, wearing a smile as usual—he will meet his music lovers soon. Suddenly, he stops and his smile is gone. There are still lots of seats left, and the audience (观众) are fewer than half!
Standing there, Birch is so disappointed. Isn't his performance so popular in this city?
Just after a short while, Birch walks to the front of the stage and says to the audience smilingly, "Oh, your Flint City people are so different! I see each of you buy two seats. I now know how rich (富有的) you are!"
On hearing this, all the people laugh with a thundering applause (掌声雷动).
