It was a very hot day in the middle of summer, and there no trees along the street.

Mr Smith closed his shop at half past five, went out into the street and walked to the bus. He was very fat. The sun shone straight down the street and in a few minutes Mr Smith felt very hot.

A small boy came out of another shop in the street, and went after Mr Smith. He stayed very near him all the time. And he kicked Mr Smith's shoes a few times. Mr Smith looked at him angrily each time.

After the fourth time. Mr smith stopped, turned and said to the small boy, "What are you doing here? Stop going after me like that! You're going to hurt my feet."

"I'm sorry, but don't stop me, please!" the small boy said. "It is very hot today, and there isn't any shade anywhere else in the street!"

这是夏季一个非常炎热的一天，大街两边没有一棵树。

史密斯先生下午五点半就将商店关闭，来到大街上，向公共汽车走去。史密斯很胖，太阳火辣辣地照在大街上，不一会儿他就感到太热了。

一个小男孩从大街上另一家商店里出来，走在史密斯先生后面。这个小男孩一直紧跟着他，踢了史密斯先生的鞋子好几次。每次，史密斯都很愤怒地看了他一眼。

又踢了一次后，史密斯先生停下里，英语小故事转过身对这个小男孩说：“你在这里干什么呀？别这样跟着我，你会踢伤我的脚的。”

“对不起，可是请别赶我走！”小男孩说道：“今天这么热，大街上别的地方又没有一点阴凉处。”
