In the village, there lived an old man called Pundit. He was very1and knew everything.2he was poor. He did not have a house. Even his3were very much worn out(破烂的).
He went from house to house to4, "Dear friends, please give me some bread". On5his old clothes, many people thought that he was mad." Go Away!" they shut the door6.He had no way but to leave. For many7he had nothing to eat.
A rich man felt8for him and gave Pundit some clothes. Wearing those new clothes, he went for begging(乞讨) as before. To the very first house he went, the householder welcomed him warmly, "Sir, please come9. You can have dinner in our house". With great respect (尊重), he took Pundit inside for10Pundit sat down. He picked up a piece of bread and began to11his new clothes saying, "Eat, eat!" On seeing that, the householder (房主) was12. "Why are you feeding the clothes? They can't eat." Pundit answered, "Because of the new clothes you offered me food today. Yesterday at the same house you asked me to13. Since I got food because of these clothes, I am14for them. This is15l am feeding them." The householder was ashamed.
It's stupid to judge a person by his look or you may miss his rich mind and gentle heart.
