It was a man dressed 3 rags(破旧衣服). He was homeless. That didn’t interest me, 4 I had seen many people like him before. Those people usually looked unhappy and hopeless. But this man was 5 in some way. He was not sitting down with a 6 expression. Instead, he had a 7 in his hand and was dancing happily to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious thing he had. “Mom, why does that man have a radio though he’s 8 ?” I asked“He 9 it,” she replied.“But why doesn’t he use the money to buy food or clothes? He 10 something that he didn’t need.”“Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’t the most important”That man must care so 11 about music that he bought a radio instead of food or clothes. I soon realized that 12 is the key to life.Since then, I am always thinking of 13 is truly important in life. A home, a meal, clothes — these things are only 14 of the life.

How could he escape?Hannay walked along the country for a long time. Then he saw a road worker, who was working alone, fixing the road. Hannay could see the road worker was not feeling well. Hannay came up to him and said “How are you?”“My head hurts,” the worker said, “I can’t do it. I want to go home to bed. My daughter got married yesterday, and I drank a lot of wine with my friends. That’s the problem!”Hannay agreed that he should be home in bed.“Yes, and I would be,” he replied,”but yesterday I received a message saying that the new surveyor was coming to look at my work. If he comes and finds me away, I’ll be in trouble.”Suddenly Hannay had bright idea--he could act as the road worker and get away from his enemies.“You go off to bed,” Hannay said,”I’ll do your job until the new surveyor comes.”The road worker was pleased with this idea. He gave Hannay his hat and his old coat. Then he went home to sleep and perhaps to drink a bit more. Hannay put on the worker’s hat and coat and began to fix the road. About an hour later he heard a voice.“Are you the road worker?” it asked.It was the new surveyor. He was a young man with a clean face. He sat in a small car.Hannay said yes. The surveyor told him about some work he wanted him to do before he came by again and drove off.
