听力题 A poor chimney-sweeper, who had not enough money to buy a meal, stopped at noon one hot summer day before a restaurant. He remained there smelling the food. The master of the shop told him several times to go away. But the sweeper couldn''t leave the good smell of the food, which made the cook very angry. At last the cook came out of the shop, and taking hold of the sweeper, declared that, as he had been feeding upon the smell of his food he should not go away without paying half the price of a dinner. The poor fellow said that he neither could nor would pay, and that he would ask the first person who should pass, whether it was not an unreasonable and unjust demand. The case was referred to a policeman, who happened to pass at that moment. He said to the sweeper, "As you have been satisfying one of your senses with the smell of this man''s meat, it is but just that you should pay him some reward. Therefore you shall, in your turn, satisfy one of his senses which seem to be more greedy than your appetite. How much money have you?" "I have but two pence in all the world, sir, and I must buy some bread." "Never mind," answered the officer, "take your two pence between your hands, now rattle them loudly." The sweeper did so, and the officer, turning to the cook, said, "Now, sir, I think he has paid you: the smell of your food satisfied his nose; the sound of his money has tickled your ear."
