Geoffrey Payne talked for the first time about the night his wife was killed. The judge(法官) thought he killed his wife. Now he wrote to a magazine from the prison (監(jiān)獄) about what happened on the night of 13 October, 2006.
I had to stay late at the hospital that night to do an operation(手術(shù)) . I finally left at about 11p.m, I drove home slowly because the weather was terrible—the wind was blowing and it was raining heavily, I was turning into our road when a man suddenly ran in front of my car. I almost hit him but I stopped just in time. I was frightened and the man looked frightened too. I got out of the car but he ran away before I could ask if he was all right. It was very strange.
When I got home, the lights were on but it was very quiet. I called to my wife but there was no answer. Then I remembered that she was out at a concert.
I was still very upset (不安) about what happened on the road, so I made myself a drink. Then I went upstairs to have a bath. I saw the window in the bedroom was open. This was strange because my wife always locked the doors and windows before she went out. She was afraid of burglars(夜盜者).When I went to close it, I found Ellen. She was lying on the floor. There was blood everywhere. I rushed over and felt for her pulse(脈搏) but she was dead. I sat on the floor beside her body and was too frightened to do anything.
The next thing I knew was that the sky was getting light. I can’t remember anything about that night. In the morning I phoned the police. They arrived about half an hour after I phoned them. But it seemed like hours. During that time I tried hard to remember anything I could about the night before. I couldn’t stop thinking about the man on the road. What was he doing at that time of the night in our quiet neighborhood? Why did he look so frightened? Why did he run away?

Once upon a time there lived a poor farmer called Smith. He didn't like to share things with others. Smith had a friend who was famous for the wonderful apples he grew.
One day, his friend gave Smith a young apple tree and told him to take it home and planted. The farmer was pleased with the gift, but when he got home, he did not know where to plant
He thought and thought. Finally at night he planted the tree in his wood where no one could see it. But without sunlight and good soil, the tree soon died.
Later the friend asked the farmer why he had planted the tree in such a poor place.
"What's the difference?" the farmer said angrily. "If I had planted it near the road, strangers would have stolen the fruit. If I had planted it in one of my fields, my neighbors would have come at night and stolen some of the apples. If I had planted it near my house, my own children would have taken the fruit,"
"Yes," said the friend, "but at least someone could have enjoyed the fruit. Now you not only have got nothing, but also you have destroyed a good apple tree."
1.Was Smith happy about the gift?
2.When did he plant the apple tree?
3.Where did Smith plant the apple tree in the end?
4.Why did the apple tree soon die?
5.What would probably happen if the farmer had planted the tree near his house?
