Question Two Empty Chapter 5 Question 2

Post  Harry Thu Jul 28, 2011 1:05 pm

The story of the old man and the egg is about an old couple who were looked after by their only son and daughter-in-law. They were not cared for well at all and most of the time they were given leftovers to eat. But one day, someone who knew the old couple took pity on them and quietly slipped two hard boil eggs into their hands. Then they heard their daughter-in-law coming so the wife told her husband to hurry up and eat the egg, because they thought they would be accused of stealing the eggs. So the old man quickly swallowed it whole without chewing, he therefore choked and stopped breathing. The young couple bought him a cheap coffin, the wife's only treasure was a pearl necklace which had been a gift from him her husband and so she wrapped it around his neck. At midnight that day a robber dug up the grave and opened the coffin. The robber wanted to make sure the old man was dead so he punched his chest 3 times which pushed up the egg, shooting the egg out and so the old man began to breathe again, and the robber was shocked.

The story is about a Old man and the egg. They were a old couple living with the son and the daughter-in-law, they were not treated very well and did not recieve good food and had to eat leftover food. One day, someone felt sorry for them and gave the old couple two boiled egg in their hands. Then they heard the daugher-in-law coming, so the Old woman told her husband to quickly swallow it. The old man didn't have any teeth, so he was choked on it and stopped breathing. They had a cheap funeral, and the wife gave him the old pearl necklace in the coffin. One day, a robber appeared and open the coffin of the old man. Before he took the necklace, he punched the old man's chest three time just in case he wasn't dead. When he punched the old man's chest, and the egg that he was choked on eventually came out of his throat. He became alive again and the robber was so scared he ran away as fast as he could.
