Early on Saturday morning Ann brought her nephew (侄子) Sam to her friends, Bill and Kate, and asked them to look after him for the day. Sam, an independent boy of six years old, had black hair and was wearing a pair of jeans(工装裤) and a bright yellow shirt.

　　At eleven o'clock Bill took Sam into town. Sam walked along behind Bill, looking at the windows of all the shops they passed. After lunch they went to the park and walked about. The whole place was very crowded, Bill stopped to buy some chocolate. When he turned round to give some to Sam, the boy wasn't there. Bill ran round calling Sam, but he couldn't find him. About an hour later, just in front of a shop, he saw the black hair, the pair of jeans and the bright yellow shirt. The boy looked as if he was waiting for someone to come out of the shop. Bill ran across the road, took the boy by the hand and hurried off, and it was quite late. The boy began to cry and pull hard, but Bill, who didn't know much about children, couldn't understand a word the boy was saying. All the way back the boy made a lot of noise.

　　When they got home at last, Bill went straight to the kitchen, with the boy still crying. At the door Bill stopped in amazement. There, sitting at the kitchen table with Kite. was a small boy with black hair, in a pair of jeans and a bright yellow shirt.

Michael Jackson’s sudden death really astonished(震惊) his fans, but soon they are glad to find another younger “King of Pop” has appeared.

 Wang Yiming, who is known as Xiao Bao, has already been popular across the world with his wonderful dance moves. He once appeared on U.S. television show “Ellen” and performed successfully at the World Expo 2010.     About seven years ago, Xiao Bao was born prematurely（早产）, which made his mother really worried.
