There lived a young man in a village. He was born in a      family. His parents had a lot of farms and got much money . He was in school for only four years, but he thought he knew all.        the villagers called him Mr. Know-All. And he told his servants not to tell him the results（结果） directly (直接地). The servants . were afraid of  him and had to listen to him.

    One day Mr. Know-All went to     his friend who lived in a town. He stayed there for nearly a week. Suddenly one of his servants came and called out, “     , sir!”

“What happened?”

“Your cat has died!”

“What’s there to be surprised at （吃惊）?” said the young man. “Throw it to the river. By the way, of what illness did it die?”

“It     much meat of the horse and died.”

“What? Has my horse died, too? And what illness did it die of, then?”

 “It pulled(拉) the carried (马车) to the hospital,” said the servant. “ We made it     as fast as possible. When we reached the hospital, it was so tired that it couldn’t     up any longer and died.”

“Wait a minute,” said Mr Know-All. “What did you go to the hospital for?”

“To     your mother there.”

“What’s the matter with my mother?”

“She     down stairs and hurt her head. We sent her to the hospital, but it was too late. The doctors operated on（动手术）her at once, they tried their best to save her, but she died!”

Mr Know-All became angry and shouted, “Why didn’t you tell me about it      ?”

Today was not a good day. Everything went wrong. First, I sleep late and Mom shout at me to wake up. When I went to the kitchen for breakfast, there was no cereal（粥）. I decided to have some toast（烤面包）instead, but I burned it. I had to eat it anyway because there was no more bread. There was no juice, either. I just had a glass of water.

When I was almost at the bus stop, I realized that I had forgotten my wallet, so I had to go back home and get it. Of course, I missed the bus and had to wait for the next bus.

I was late for school and the teacher told me to stay in the classroom at lunchtime to catch up on（弥补）the schoolwork I had missed.

After lunch, it was the time to give the teacher our homework. I reached into my bag to get it but it wasn’t there. I had left it at home. I was in trouble again.

When I got home, I went straight to my room to catch up on my homework. Mom cooked fish for dinner. She knows I don’t like fish, but she thinks it is good for her son. It was a horrible day. I hope tomorrow will be better.
