Question

Once upon a time, a rich man and a poor tailor(裁缝)lived in the same house. The rich man lived upstairs(楼上)and the poor tailor lived downstairs(楼下). The tailor liked to sing when he made clothes. He sang one song after another. But the rich man liked to sleep a lot, and the singing troubled him.

One day the rich man said, “Tailor, I will give you a bag full of money every day if you stop singing.”

“Fine.” said the tailor. And so the tailor stopped singing and became richer and richer. But the more money he got from the rich man, the unhappier he became, because he wanted very much to sing again. Finally he brought all his money back to the rich man. “Here,” he said, “take your money, I can't be happy if I can't sing.”

And so he gave the money back to the rich man and went on singing. He sang and sang and he was happier than ever before.
