It is Jimmy’s birthday today. He is five years old. He gets many birthday presents from his family and one of them is a nice big drum (鼓).

“Who gives him that drum?” his father asks.

“His grandfather,” answers Jimmy’s mother.

Jimmy likes his drum very much. He often makes a terrible (可怕的) noise with it, but his mother doesn’t say anything about it. His father is not at home. He is working in a school. So he doesn’t hear the noise.

But one of the neighbours (邻居) does not like the noise. So one morning she takes a knife (刀) and goes into Jimmy’s room. Jimmy is making a noise with the drum. She says to him, “Hello, Jimmy. Do you know there is something very nice in your drum? Here’s a knife. Open the drum and let’s find it.” Jimmy is very happy to get the knife.
