John lived with his mother when he was young. He didn't know who his father was. The woman did some
washing for the rich and could buy only some bread for her son. So the boy was short and thin.
One cold morning there was much snow in the streets. A car knocked the woman down and the policemen
took her to the hospital. She didn't tell John that his father deserted her before he was born until she died. She
left her son the name and address of his father.
John found his father, Mr. Brown, in another city. He was one of the richest shopkeepers and he had to
receive his son. From then on, the boy lived a rich life. He ate all kinds of delicious food and wore beautiful
clothes. But He didn't go to school and could not read or write.
Once his father took him to a party. He saw a newspaper lying on the floor and picked it up while others
were talking about a film. He had a look at it and found a car's wheels (轮子) were upward (朝上). He called
