[03:52.99]Many years ago,there lived a poor man who had only one son.
[03:59.52]One day,there was no more money or food left in the house,
[04:05.47]so the man said,"My son,you must go to find some work and earn some money."
[04:12.53]The young man left home.
[04:15.97]He walked many miles until he met a rich farmer who had thousands of sheep.
[04:22.03]This farmer needed a shepherd to look after his sheep,
[04:26.89]so he gave the young man the job.
[04:30.73]There were seven mountains around the farm,
[04:34.99]and there were sheep in every field on every mountain.
[04:40.14]One day,black clouds gathered. A storm began.
[04:45.39]The wind tore off branches and blew down mighty trees.
[04:50.61]The rain poured down.
[04:53.85]Paths and bridges were washed away.
[04:58.00]The young man rushed around,gathered the sheep from the seven hillsides to lead them to shelter in the farm,
[05:06.26]He had almost reached the farm with his enormous flock
[05:11.30]when he saw that the bridge over the last stream had been washed away.
[05:16.76]There was only a wooden plank left.
[05:21.41]It was only safe for the sheep to walk across the plank one at a time.
[05:27.76]They did not like the look of the narrow creaky piece of wood,
[05:33.43]but the shepherd pushed a big black sheep across and the rest started to follow
[05:39.98]one at a time, one at a time.
[05:43.82]What hapened next?
[05:47.17]I'll tell you when all the sheep are safely across the plank .
[05:52.99]At the moment they  are still going over
[05:57.54]one at a time, one at a time, one at a time.
[06:02.48]Have all the sheep crossed over the bridge yet.
[06:06.84]Oh, dear me, no.
[06:10.68]The young man saved thousands of sheep from the mountains and field.
[06:16.42]They all have to get across that shaky plank
[06:21.47]and they are still crossing, one at a time, one at a time.
[06:27.32]When will the last sheep have crossed you may well ask.
[06:33.17]The answer is
[06:36.23]they will all have crossed when every sheep is on the other side.
[06:42.18]But just now, they are still walking over,
[06:47.22]one at a time, one at a time.
[06:51.27]And what about the young man.
[06:55.11]Well,he is still waiting and watching those sheep crossing the plank,one at a time.
[07:02.56]One at a time, ...one at a time.

[07:33.15]Professor Wang is a physics teacher in Beijing.
[07:38.11]Once she was explaining to one of her classes about sound.
[07:44.25]She decided to test the students to see how well they had understood her.
[07:50.80]"I have an uncle in Xinjiang," she said,
[07:55.56]"Suppose I was calling him on the phone from here
[08:00.91]and at the same time you were 25 metres away, listening to me.
[08:08.18]Who would hear me first, my uncle or you - and for what reason?"
[08:14.63]Ma Hua at once answered,
[08:19.07]"Your uncle, professor,because sound-waves travel slower than electricity."
[08:25.42]"Good," said the professor, but then another boy raised his hand.
[08:32.05]"Yes, Li Ming?" said Professor Wang.
[08:36.91]"Of course your uncle would hear you first," Limin said,
[08:42.55]"but that's because of the time difference.
[08:46.71]When it's nine o'clock here,it's seven o'clock in Xinjiang."

[09:34.64]Then he went and bought some other things at other shop.
[09:40.08]At 6 o'clock he came back to the car.

[10:55.41]"I have some good books. You buy books, don't you?"
[11:00.85]"Yes, bring them in. I'll have a look at them."
[11:05.91]Soon the books were on the dining-table,
[11:10.35]"Come in now," Henry called out, "and bring the list."
[11:15.60]A policeman came into the dining-room.
[11:20.46]He read the titles on the books and then those on the list in his hand.
