　　Mr Young worked in a factory. One day he broke an important part of a machine and was sent away. He couldn't find any work any longer. He had to roam(流浪) here and there. One day when he was walking by a river, an Englishman fell into it and the water would nearly wash him away. In the time of danger, Mr Young jumped into the river and saved him. The Englishman thanked him very much and took him to England and helped him find a job in London. A few years later, he could speak English but could neither read nor write. It brought him a lot of difficulties. He decided to learn reading and writing. He found an Englishwoman lived next to him. He came to the old woman and asked her to teach him.

Pointing to A, the woman said, “It's A.” “How can I know it's A?” Mr Young asked. The woman didn't know how to answer. She had to say, “It's A. And it's B.” “How can I know it's B?” he asked again. The old woman didn't answer. She thought for a while and began to pull him by the ear.

　　“Ah, my ear.” the young man called out. “How do you know it's an ear?”
