Mr. Reese was born in a big city. His father had several companies and got a lot of money. He could give his son all the young man wanted. He was busy with his business and never asked him how he got along with his studies. So the boy spent most time in the restaurants or cinemas. Of course he was weak at his lessons and learned nothing at school. He made many friends but none of them was good and when they knew he came from a rich family, they began to teach him to gamble(赌博). Of course he lost much money.

  Now Mr. Reese was twenty and finished middle school. He could not do anything. But his father didn't mind it until one day he found the young man had sold one of his companies. He became so angry that he made him leave his house. The young man couldn't gamble any longer. His friends made him pay his debt. He had to ask his mother to help him and the woman often gave him some money. But one evening his father happened to find it. The old man stopped his wife from doing so. They began to fight in the room. The young man brought out a knife and killed his father. His mother helped him to run away, but soon after that he was caught and sentenced(判刑)to death.

  It was a cold and wet day. Suddenly it began to rain hard when Mr. Reese was being sent to the execution ground(刑场). Soon both he and the soldiers were wet through. He said angrily,“Bad luck! I shall be shot in such bad weather!”

  “Don't complain(抱怨), brothers” said one of the soldiers. “You're luckier than us all. We'll have to go back to the city after that!”

Once upon a time there lived an old man in a nice cottage with a large garden. The old man was seen  21  his flowers all the time. They were so well-tended that every passer-by could not but  22  for a glance.

One day a young man went by the garden. He gazed at the splendid garden,  23  in admiration at the beauty of these sceneries. Then, suddenly he  24  the old gardener was blind. 25  , the young man asked, "Why are you busy tending these flowers every day which you can't 26  in fact?" The old man smiled and answered that " I can tell you 27  reasons. First I was a  28  when I was young, and I really like this job. Second, although I can't see these flowers, yet I can 29  them. Third,I can smell sweetness of them. As to the last one, that's  30 .
