teeth after every meal. When Joe walked out of the clinic, he had one

Mr Tan drives the taxi 12 hours every day. One day, Mr Tan drove to
the school where his wife was working as a teacher. It was a long and
tiring day of work and he was in a bad mood.
"The world is full of dishonest people!" he grumbled angrily.

Concerned. his wife asked him what had happened. Mr Tan told her that
he had received a fake ten-dollar note from one passenger earlier that
day. The passenger had alighted at a crowded taxi stand of a shopping
mall and walked off before Mr Tan could notice that the note was fake.
Mrs Tan then asked him to show her the note.

"Oh, I just got rid of it! I used it when I bought noodles from the hawker at
the coffee shop. He was too busy with his customers to notice it!" Mr Tan.'
replied.
His wife frowned when she heard that and scolded him. "That was
dishonest of you too!" she remarked.
Mr Tan thought for a moment and hung his head in shame. He

realised that he was in the wrong. He should have gone to the police
station to make a report instead of passing on the fake note to the
hawker.

A baker was on his way to the market to buy some flour when he found a
package on the ground. To his surprise, it contained a stack of money. He went
home quickly and showed his mother the money. She told him, "You should return
it."
"But we can buy many things with this!" the son said. ·Anyway, I don't know
who to·return the money to. I found it on the road."
"Return itl" his mother said fiercely. "Go back to where you found it. The
_ owner will turn up."
His mother was right. A money changer was looking for his money. The baker
returned the package with all the money to him. A passer-by asked the money
changer to reward the baker. However, the money changer refused and said, "I
lost $300. There is only $100 here!"
_ The men started fighting. A policeman saw them and took them to a judge.
The judge said to the money changer. "You insist that you have lost $300. Then it
is clear that this money found is not yours. You have lost your money somewhere
else." The judge passed the money to the policeman and thanked the baker for his
honest act.

A passer by heard them. When he saw the whole farmland, he
suggested to the brothers, "Young men, since you have dug up the 10

The farmer's so.ns disliked the idea but they felt that there
was no harm doing it. So, they planted some seeds. Before long, the
seeds grew in-to heal-thy crops. The four brothers sold the crops in
