An English traveller found himself in Norway with only enough money to buy the ticket for his journey back home. As he knew that it would take him only two days to get to England, he decided that he could easily spend the time without food. So he bought a ticket and got on the ship. The man closed his ears to the sound of the lunch bell. When dinner time came, he didn't go to the dining room, saying that he was not feeling very well.

    The next morning, he still didn't have breakfast and at lunch time he again stayed in his room. But at dinner time he was so hungry that he went to the dining room and ate everything the waiter put in front of him. He got ready for the quarrel(争吵).

     “Bring me the bill,” he said. “The bill, sir?” said the waiter in surprise. “There isn't any bill. On our ship meals are included(包括)in the money for the ticket,'' said the waiter.

There was once a cave（岩洞）near a town. It was called"Cave of Fear" {#blank#}1{#/blank#} who tried to enter it didn't return. It's said that there might be a monster in the cave. In order to {#blank#}2{#/blank#} the monster from getting out of the cave, people often left gifts and food at the mouth of the cave, and these {#blank#}3{#/blank#}things always disappeared soon. 

One day, a young man came to the town. When he heard about the cave, he decided to enter the cave and found out {#blank#}4{#/blank#}there was a monster in it. As he went deep into the cave, he heard some strange {#blank#}5{#/blank#}. So he followed them. Suddenly, he {#blank#}6{#/blank#}that something was pushing his back. He was too scared to turn around to look at it. Finally, he was pushed into a huge cavern（洞穴）. As he {#blank#}7{#/blank#}the cave, he got very surprised. He found that he was right in the middle of a big party. A lot of people were {#blank#}8{#/blank#}the party. They were all those people who had {#blank#}9{#/blank#} returned to the town. 

Then those people told him that this was the idea of an old wise man in the town. The old wise man wanted to {#blank#}10{#/blank#}people that if someone wanted to make a change, he should be brave and wanted to have a try. So the wise man made up the {#blank#}11{#/blank#} of the monster. Only brave people could enjoy big parties in the cave.
