The professor and the “Swing”,帮忙做阅读,
Mr.Jones woke early one morning,before the sun had risen.It was a beautiful morning,fresh and bright,so he went to the window and looked out.He was somewhat surprised to see a neatly-dressed,mid-aged professor,who worked in the university just up the road from Mr.Jones’ house,coming the direction of the town.He had grey and hair and thick glasses,and was carrying an umbrella,a morning newspaper and a bag.Mr.Jones thought that he must have arrived by the night train and decided to walk to the university instead of taking a taxi.
Mr.Jones had a big tree in his garden,and the children had tied a long rope to one of its branches,so that they could swing on it for fun.
Mr.Jones was surprised to see the professor come to a halt when he saw the rope,and looked up and down the road.When he saw that there was nobody in sight,he stepped quietly into the garden,put his umbrella,newspaper,bag and hat nearly on the grass and took hold of the rope.He pulled it hard to see whether it was strong enough to take his weight,then ran as fast as he could and swung into the air on the end of the rope,his grey hair blowing all around his face.Backwards and forwards he swung,occasionally taking a few running steps on the grass when the rope began to swing too slowly for him.
Mr.Jones was standing by the window,watching the professor with a broad smile.After a long while,the professor stopped swing at last.He straightened his tie,combed his hair carefully,put on his hat,picked up his umbrella,newspaper and bag,and continued on his way to the university.And again,he was looking as quiet and correct and respectable as one would expect a professor to be.
