One day, Wald went to the supermarket to buy some groceries (杂货) for his wife Layla. On the way home, he stopped at an art gallery where people were holding a pop-art exhibition.

Then, being so moved by what he saw, he left the bag of groceries on the floor and went home. When Wald rushed back to the gallery, the groceries had been awarded the first prize in the exhibition.

"We've been looking everywhere for you," the gallery owner said. "Why didn't you sign your name of art?"

"What? It's not a work of art. It's my dinner for tonight!" Wald replied.

The gallery was suddenly full of laughter. "He's not only a great artist, but has humour as well." A judge said. "You can see that in his work," another judge cheered, "How the bottle of tomato ketchup is leaning against the pork and beans! He is a genius (天才)! Notice the way the bottle of peach is lying on its side! Even Artist Andy Warhol wouldn't have thought of it!"

"Did you notice the way that he pressed the cheesecake on the bottom of the bag? I think that's why he can win the first prize. It makes Artist Picasso feel ashamed." A lady said excitedly.

"Look," Wald said. "I'm very thankful for all these praises, but my wife is waiting for these groceries, and I have to get it home."

"Get it home?" The gallery owner said surprisingly, "I've just sold it to that couple over there for 1,500 dollars."

"But the groceries cost me only 18 dollars," Wald said.

"It isn't a bag of groceries. It's what you did with them. The thought you expressed in your art is even more meaningful than Artist Auguste Rodin showed through his "Thinker"! You have said what Artist Rembrandt tried to say in 1,000 paintings with this bag of groceries!" The gallery owner said, "Here is your money!"

With a burning face, Wald stood still and could not say a word. Finally, he accepted the money and that night he took his wife out for dinner.

The next day, he went to the supermarket and bought another bag of groceries, much more expensive. He immediately took the bag to the gallery. But the reviews were terrible to him. Some leading critics even said that success had gone to his head but his talent was gone, and all that was left was a bag of tasteless groceries.

Jason and his father were going to a supermarket by car to pick up some apples. It had been an unusual day. The sky was dark but there were few clouds. As they drove up the street, there started to be a loud sound heard across the ground.

Jason's father immediately realized that a tornado(龙卷风) was coming. He stopped the car and told Jason to get out immediately. Jason and his father got out of the car and made their way to the closest building. By this time the wind was blowing harder, and it was hard to see or hear. Jason couldn't see his dad anymore. He also realized that he wasn't getting to the building fast enough. He was afraid he would be picked up by the wind and thrown into the air.

As he made his way towards the building, he noticed a field to his right. He could see an irrigation ditch (灌溉渠). He felt really afraid inside because he'd never been in a tornado before. His heart began to race and he could feel sweat dripping down from his face. In a panic, he started running towards the ditch as fast as he could. He stumbled(绊倒)a bit as he climbed down into it, but soon he was lying flat on the ground, hiding inside. He could hear his heart beating even more loudly and felt his whole body shaking.

After a while, the wind died down and the loud roaring sound was gone. Jason slowly lifted his head and nervously looked around. What he saw was a great mess. Jason could hardly recognize the buildings in front of him because of all the damage.

He stood up and with his legs shaking and walked to the building. Once there, he pushed the door open and went inside. It was a public building owned by the city. It was empty, but Jason could hear noises further inside. He walked into the large room and saw his dad. He ran across the room and gave him a big hug.

"Jason! How are you? I' ve been so worried about you!" said his father. "I couldn't find you anywhere!"

Jason breathed a sigh of a relief(松了一口气) and sat down. He did have a story to tell!
