Henry was an office worker in a big city. He worked very hard and enjoyed traveling in    his holidays. He usually went to the seaside. But one year he saw an advertisement in a newspaper. "Enjoy country life. Spend a few weeks at West Hill Farm. Good food. Fresh air. Horse riding. Walking. Fishing. Cheap and interesting. "        "This sounds like a good idea," he thought. "I'll spend a month at West Hill Farm. I think I can enjoy horse riding, walking and fishing. They'll make a change from sitting by the seaside and swimming. " He wrote to the farmer. In the letter he said that he would like to spend all of July there. Then on the first day of July, he left for West Hill Farm.        But four days later, he returned home.        "What was wrong with West Hill Farm?" his best friend, Edward, asked him.        "Didn't you enjoy country life?"

"        ''What's wrong with that?" Edward asked. "Fresh meat is the best. "        "I know, but on the second day a cow died, and we had roast beef for dinner. "        "Lucky you ! "        "You don't understand," Henry said.        ''On the third day a pig died and we had roast pork for dinner. "        "A different meat every day," Edward said loudly, "and you are complaining! "        "Let me finish," Henry said. "On the fourth day the farmer died, and I didn't dare(敢) stay for dinner?"
