Once an Arab was traveling in the desert. When the sun went down in the west, he stopped and
_36_ his tent then, made a fire and have a
_37_ meal. When night fell, he
_38_ down to sleep.
He had
_39_ fallen asleep when he felt a soft
_40_ on his elbow(手肘). He woke up to find that his camel had put his head inside the tent. The camel said: “Would you please let me keep my head in the tent to get warm? It is so cold outside. I will not take up too much
41 .”
The Arab was a
42 man, “All right, do as you
43 .” he said. Then he turned on his
_44_ and went back to sleep.
It wasn’t long
45 he felt a push on his shoulder. It was the camel again. “Dear master,” the camel said, “my head is quite warm now, but my neck is still cold. Do you mind
46 I keep it inside the tent, too?”
“
_47_ .” the man said. But this time he felt a bit
48 , as camel had such a long neck.
No sooner had he shut his eyes
49 he got a harder push in his side. This time the camel said, “will you please allow me to bring my front legs inside and warm then a little?”
The Arab_
50_ over to one side of the tent. He made
_51_ as small as he could. It was not _
52_ comfortable, and sleep was now out of
53 .Soon after that the camel gave his a rough push and said, “The tent is too small for the two of us.
54 , my two hind legs are still left in the cold. It is only_
55_ that you should leave the tent wholly to me.” And with that, the camel kicked the poor man out.
