There lived many mice in the house. The woman in the moonlight saw a mouse crawl (爬行) into the
house."Look! In comes one," she said to the man in the house. The thief was so frightened that he hurriedly
crawled out of the house and said to the one waiting outside,"She found me when I was just in." But the thief
outside didn"t believe him, so he said,"Let us two try to crawl into the house together." At that time two mice
happened to crawl into the house, too. The woman saw the mice and shouted,"In come two, catch them!" The
two thieves were terribly frightened. The man in the house said,"You saw them come in but where are they? I
will catch them tonight." The two thieves started running away at once.
The two thieves wanted to make it clear whether they had been found or not the night before. The next day
they acted as men selling sweet potatoes and came before the house. The man and the woman were ploughing
in their fields. The rein (缰绳) broke and the woman came home for a rope. She saw two men selling sweet
potatoes and wanted to buy some. She picked out two which looked like mice. At the time the man couldn"t
wait for her any longer in the fields and he ran back from the fields to hurry her up. The woman showed the
sweet potatoes to the man and said,"How they look like the two of last night." The man said,"I asked you to
fetch a rope, why don"t you hurry for it?" The two thieves ran away very quickly without their sweet potatoes. | | 1. The two thieves failed to steal anything from the house because _____. | A. they were found out

umbrella was stolen from a London church. As it was a present, I spent twice its worth in advertising, but
didn"t get it back."
"How did you write your advertisement?" asked one of the listeners, a merchant.
"Here it is," said the man, taking out of his pocket a slip cut from a newspaper. The other man took it
and read,"Lost from the City Church last Sunday evening, a black silk umbrella.. The gentleman who finds
it will receive ten shillings on leaving it at No. 10 Broad Street."
"Now," said the merchant,"I often advertise, and find that it pays me well. But the way in which an
advertisement is expressed of extreme importance. Let us try for your umbrella again, and if it fails, I"ll buy
you a new one."
The merchant then took a slip of paper out of his pocket and wrote: "If the man who was seen to take
an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday evening doesn"t wish to get into trouble, he will return the
umbrella to No.10 Broad Street. He is well known."
This appeared in the newspaper, and on the following morning, the man was astonished when he opened
the front door. In the doorway lay at least twelve umbrellas of all sizes and colors, and his own was among
them. Many of them had notes fastened to them saying that they had been taken by mistake, and begging the
loser not to say anything about the matter. | | 1. What is an advertisement? | A. A news item.

mobile home: a shaky tricycle. Chen began his journey on the three-wheel rickshaw from his 2 Jiangsu
