一，原文文章：

It was cold and dark out in the road and the rain did not stop for a minute．But in the little living－room of number 12 Castle Road it was nice and warm．Old Mr White and his son， Herbert， played chess and Mrs White sat and watched them． The old woman was happy because her husband and her son were good friends and they liked to be together．'Herbert's a good son，' she thought．'We waited a long time for him and I was nearly forty when he was born， but we are a happy family．' And old Mrs White smiled．

They had not got much money， but they were a very happy little family．

Suddenly Old Mr White looked up．'Listen to the rain！' he said．
'Yes， it's a bad night，' Herbert answered．'It's not a good night to be out． But is your friend， Tom Morris，coming tonight？'
'Yes， that's right． He's coming at about seven o'clock，'the old man said．'But perhaps this rain…'

'Listen！'Herbert said．'There's someone at the door now．'
