Mr. Black lives far away from his office. Every day he has to take a bus to . He feels it is very boring to take a long time on the bus without talking with anyone.
One day, he up early. After washing his face, he ate a big and then went to his office as usual. On his way to the bus stop, he saw some men a guessing game on the street. One of them had two pencils in his hand. One pencil was long and the was short. If you wanted to win, you had to try to pick long one. Then you could get double of your money back. Mr. Black thought it a good way to make money, so he stopped played the game with them. At the beginning, he won some money and he was very happy. But some time later, he found he lost all his money. He knew the men cheated (骗). Then he called the police. When the police came, the men away quickly.
What a poor man Mr. Black was!
