It was a beautiful day. The sun was shining. There was no cloud, and the weather was warm. Trees just turned green and flowers came out. Young people were walking after breakfast; children were playing on the grass happily. Mr. Brown saw an old man standing alone under the tree with a big umbrella in his hand.
Mr. Brown went up and asked him, “Do you think we are going to have rain today?” “No.” said the old man. “I don’t think so.” “Then are you carrying the umbrella because the sun is hot?” “No, the sun is not hot in this season.”
Mr. Brown looked at the big umbrella again, just then the old man said, “I’m old and my legs aren’t very strong for walking far away. I must have a walking-stick. But young people will think I’m too old to do anything. When I carry an umbrella in such fine weather, they will laugh at me and say I’m stupid(愚蠢) , but I don’t mind.” Mr. Brown said, “ Oh, I see. You’re never too old. It’s important for us young people to understand the old people. Now let’s have a walk together, will you?” The old man said, “Thank you, let’s go.”
