The sun went down when an old man came to a small mountain village with a heavy bag. He found an inn(小旅馆) and wanted to stay there for the night.

After he had gone to his room, the owner of the inn said to his wife, “Look at his heavy bag, dear! I’m sure there’re a lot of valuable(贵重的) things. I want to steal it when he’s asleep tonight.” “No, no,” said his wife. “He must look for his bag tomorrow morning. Then he’ll take you to the police station.”

They thought hard and at last the woman had an idea. “We have forgetful grass,” said the woman. “Why not put some into his food? If he has the food, he’ll forget to take his bag away tomorrow morning.” “How clever you are!” said the owner, “don’t forget it when you cook supper for him.”

The old man had the food with forgetful grass and went to bed. The next morning, when the owner got up, he found the door was open and the old man had left. He looked for the bag for a long time, but he didn’t find it. He hurried to wake his wife up and said angrily, “What a fool! Your forgetful grass isn’t useful at all!”

“No, no,” said the woman. “I don’t think so. He must forget something.”

“Oh, I’ve remembered!” the owner called out suddenly, “He forgot to pay us the bill!”

While you are in trouble, what are you going to do? What? Cry? Or escape? Those are all the wrong way! Robinson Crusoe can tell you the right answer!
It is an exciting story: Robinson Crusoe hated the comfortable life in his home town. So, he want to be a seaman and travelled around the world. But one day, a terrible thing happened. A great storm came and their boat crashed! No one was alive in this accident except Robinson. He was the luckiest man in the world--Because all his friends were dead but he was alive. However, at the same time he was the most tragic man of all—He must face the fact .Alone on an island without food, water or gun！But, all roads lead to Rome！He just used his hands to work hard！Then, he made a cave, built a house, grew corn and kept goats. In the end, he could enjoy the life on the island. In his twenty-fourth year on the island, he saved a wild man, and gave him the name of “Friday”. With Robinson’s teaching, “Friday” became a good servant. Friday, they got a boat and escaped from the island.
Surely, the writer of Robinson Crusoe is really a hero！ It’s too hard to describe Robinson with words. We could say that Robinson was very clever, and also he was brave,...Certainly, too many good words can describe him. But now, I think it isn’t important. However, the most important thing is what we have learned from the story. That is, use our own hands to work hard with confidence！
