小 儿 垂 钓

唐·胡令能
 
péng tóu zhì zǐ xué chuí lún
蓬 头 稚 子 学 垂 纶，
cè zuò méi tái cǎo yìng shēn
侧 坐 莓 苔 草 映 身。
lù rén jiè wèn yáo zhāo shǒu
路 人 借 问 遥 招 手，

怕 得 鱼 惊 不 应 人。


A Child Fishing
By Hu Lingneng (Tang Dynasty)

His hair unkempt, the boy learns to angle,
He sits aslant, moss and grass hide his figure.
When passers-by ask for directions, he waves from afar,
Afraid to scare the fish, he answers not a word.

Jennifer goes on an investigation to find out the truth. Did Junior really steal his award-winning design or has Jennifer lost her mind?

This story uses words from '3000 most common words in English'. 


When Jennifer got home that day, she called her grandma. They caught up on the essentials: the move to the new city, the teachers at her school and if she liked her new bedroom. But then Jennifer got down to business.

She explained how this guy called Junior won a gardening award for most innovative design, being the youngest winner in the ceremony’s history. Jennifer’s grandma was supportive of this boy, the way grandparents are always supportive of any accomplishment, big or small. But Jennifer insisted that he was treated like an otherworldly superstar and that it didn’t seem right. 

Jennifer finally just said it. “I think Junior violated the competition rules by copying someone’s design, but I can’t prove it.”

“Oh, my dear, that’s cute, you’ve always loved coming up with adorable little theories. Do you 
remember your friend, Samantha? You two were always playing detectives. Sometimes I see her—”

“—Yes, grandma, but could you help? Take a photo of your neighbour’s garden, please. I think Junior copied her design.”

“Oh, sure thing, dear, I’ll take it after our call and send it straight away. So, tell me more about your new friends…”

Jennifer ended the call by ranting about the truth and how when people manipulate reality, they distort our ability to be authentic individuals. Her grandma kept repeating that’s sweet, dear.

Moments after the call ended, Jennifer received the photo. She compared it to Junior’s. They were identical.
