Dan was the doorman of a club in a big city. Every day, thousands of people passed his door, and a lot of them stopped and said to him, ‘What’s the time, please?»
After a few months, Dan said to himself, I’m not going to answer all those stupid people any more. I’m going to go to a shop and buy a big clock. Then I’m going to put it up on the wall here. He bought a clock and put it up on the wall.
‘Now people aren’t going to stop and ask me the time,’ he said happily. But after that, a lot of people stopped every day, looked at the clock and then said to Dan, ‘Is that clock right?’
- What work did Dan do?
- Did many people stop at his door?
- Did they ask Dan the time?
- Was he happy about this?
- What did he say to himself then?
- And what did he do?
- Did people stop and look at the clock?
- And what did they say to Dan?
