        Stanley was a person who loved singing to himself in the bath. One cold winter night, he went into the bathroom to have a hot bath. He took off his clothes and turned on the tap, but there was no hot water-the water from the tap was cold!
Stanley didn’t know what was wrong, but he finally decided to take a bath without hot water. He started to sing as usual, one song after another. Stanley was surprised that the water felt warm this way. So he kept singing, louder and louder, until he finished his bath.

Hi, Jerry, I heard you had fun with Peggy in Merry Park yesterday.

Jerry:

Yes. We had a great time there. Why didn’t you come with us? We got there by bus in only ten minutes.

Alice:

I know, but the ticket is more expensive on the weekend. Also, I’ve been there many times since it opened five years ago. Did you try the Dandelion Seat there? It’s so popular that people have to wait for over an hour to get a ride.

You mean those flower-like umbrellas that fly high in the sky?

Yes. I enjoyed riding on the Dandelion Seat and looking over the city. It was a great experience.

Jerry:

Eh...I liked taking the train to get around the park better. I don’t think it’s fun to ride in the air. I’d feel like I could fall down any time.
