Two men were sitting together in a plane. They were on a long journey. One of the men was a businessman. The other was a farmer. They sat without talking for a while, and then the farmer said, "Let's do something to pass the time."
"What do you want to do?" the businessman asked.
"We can ask each other riddles(谜语)," the farmer said.
"OK. Let's make rules first," the businessman said. "If you don't know the answer to a riddle, you pay me $ 100. And if I don't know the answer, I' ll pay you$100."
"That's not fair(公平). You are a businessman with much knowledge. You know more things than I do. I am just a farmer," the farmer said.
"That's true," the businessman said. "What do you want us to do?"
"If you don't know the answer to a riddle, you pay me $ 100. And if I don't know the answer, I' ll pay you $50," the farmer said. The businessman thought about this, and then he said, "OK. That's fair. Who will go first?"
"I will," the farmer said. "Here is my riddle. What has three legs when it walks, but only two legs when it flies?"
The businessman thought for a long time and said, "Mm, that's a good one. I'm afraid I don't know the answer." He gave the farmer $ 100, and then he said, "Tell me the answer."
"I don't know," the farmer said. Then he gave the businessman $50.
Ben My First day at School
I don't remember everything about my first day at school, but my mum always talks about it. I was only five and was very nervous. There were lots of other kids. Some liked school. They talked and laughed. Some didn't like school. They were quiet and looked afraid, just like me. Ms Burton was my teacher. My mum introduced me to her. Then she walked away... | I cried, but soon a little girl walked over and talked to me. Her name was Lisa. She wasn't afraid or sad, so I wasn't, either. She was my first school friend. |
