　　It is a beautiful spring morning．There isn't a cloud in the sky, and the sun is warm but not too hot, so Mr Andrews is surprised when he sees an old gentleman at the bus stop with a big, strong black umbrella in his hand．

　　Mr Andrews says to him,“Are we going to have rain today, do you think?”

　　“No,”says the old gentleman,“I don't think so．”

　　“Then are you keeping the umbrella to keep the sun off you?”

　　“No, the sun is not very hot in spring．”

　　Mr Andrews looks at the big umbrella again, and the gentleman says,“I'm an old man, and my legs are not very strong, so I really need a walking stick．But when I carry a walking stick, people say, ‘Look at the poor old man' and I don't like that．When I carry an umbrella in fine weather, people only say,‘Look at that silly man’．”
