Question

An old woman is going shopping with a basket(篮子). She is going by boat. The boat is going across (穿过) the river. Her basket is empty now. Oh dear! Look! Her basket is in the water. “Help! My basket is in the river！” the woman says.

A boy sees the basket. He says, “Don't worry! I can swim. I can get it for you！” He takes off (脱下) his shirt and shoes.“Look after them for me, please！” he says, and gets into the river.

The boy takes the basket back to the woman. “Oh, thank you very much，” says the woman. “Not at all！” says the boy. “Do you have my shirt and shoes, please？” “Yes, here you are. Oh! What's this in the basket？” “It's the duck's egg！”
