He peeped into the hall to check if there was anyone there. He took of his bassball cap and
scratched his head wondering why no body was around in such a beutiful castle.
As he walked further, he was extremely surprised to see one-thousand young men taking off
their caps, waving and smilling at him . he did not know walls in the hall were confored
with one-thousand mirrors. He was very happy with his new discovery and thought to him
self,’’this is a wonderfull place. I will come back again,’’

thousand sad unfriendly – looking young men , staring angrily at him and as hostile as him

a terrible place with so many angry aggressive faces. I swear I will never return here again.’’
