The secret of the black tower
It is a dark night in April. Three friends have been hiking in the mountains all day.
A: It’s getting dark. I think we can’t go home tonight.
B: I’m tired. We’d better find a place to spend the night.
C: Where shall we go? There is no house for us to live in.
A: Look! There is a tower over there. Let’s go to see if we can spend he night there.

21. B: It’s so dark here, but we have no choice but to stay here.
( They walk to the tower and enter it.)
B: It’s so dark here, but we have no choice but to stay here.
C: It’s so large and empty. I feel afraid.
A: Don’e be afraid. There are even no windows in the walls. Nobody can move in if we put a big stone at the entrance.
( They go to bed and try to fall asleep. Suddenly they hear a sound )
A: Listen!
B: It may be a mouse.

22. A: Really? Let me see. (Lighting a match and walking around) Oh, dear!
B and C: What happened?
A: Come and have a look. There is a man lying on the ground.
B: A man? What about him? Can he breathe?
(B and C walk to the man.)
C: Let me see. Oh, no. I think he has been dead for a long time.
A: I think so. He doesn’t look like a modern person. He seems to be a person from ancient times.

23. C: Oh, I know. Look at his head. He may be a Buddhist monk
C: Oh, I know. Look at his head. He may be a Buddhist monk. I have read a report. It says that a buddhist monk doesn’t degenerate because he had taken some special drug before he died.
B: In that case, his body is worth studying.
C: Of course. Many countries want to get it. However, no one knows where it is.
