Passage 1Once an honored man was having a birthday party. His sons and servants were busy welcoming guests. A thief slipped into the house. He hid himself by lying face down on a beam in the ceiling of the hall where the birthday banquet was to be held. From there, the thief could look down upon the guests and see all the gifts of silks, jade, and jewels brought in. He tried to remember where these were put so that he could steal them after the party was over.Later that evening, the host was looking at all his presents happily. He leaned over them with his back turned to the thief hiding on the beam. The thief was looking around the room so that he would be able to move quietly when the lights were off. As the thief hung his head over the beam it made a shadow on the floor.The host did not show that he had seen the shadow. He called for his servant to set a table for one guest with the best food and drink.

The old man did not know this guest and asked for his name.The stranger smiled, “I am an honest man. I have learned to live a good life. But it was not always so. Do you remember how you once asked me to come down from the roof-beam and eat your food?”The host was amazed. He was even more surprised when he heard how his kindness had changed the thief into an honest man.21. How did the thief get into the house?A. He carefully disguised himself as a guest.B.
