Robert was¹ a clever young man and got² on well with his classmates. They all liked him and played with him though³ he often boasted⁴. He was strong and often had⁵ sports. He hoped⁶ to join the army⁷ when he left the middle school. Bad luck⁸! His leg was hurt in a traffic⁹ accident¹⁰ and he couldn't walk. He had to go to his home village and help his father to manage¹¹ the farm. He read a lot of books on farming¹² and did¹³ well in it. He got much money and bought a few¹⁴ farms next to his and ten years later¹⁵ he became¹⁶ the richest farmer in his village.

Once Robert met several¹⁷ friends in the capital¹⁸. Some of them were famous¹⁹ in their country. They knew nothing about their lame²⁰ friend. It made²¹ him unhappy²² and he asked them to visit his farm. They agreed²³ and went there with him. They saw²⁴ a beautiful house with a big garden when they got there. They found²⁵ he had a lot of sheep, pigs and cows. Robert and his family warmly received²⁶ the guests²⁷ from London. The next morning he took²⁸ them to his farm. It was so large that they couldn't see the other end and it surprised²⁹ them all.

"It'll take you two days to reach³⁰ the other end of my farm by car!" Robert said³¹ happily³².

"I think something is wrong with your cars!" one of the guests said with a smile.
