The ruler in this country was as monstrous as a monster. He did not know that a molecule is made up of atoms, so he forbade the others to go to school. He installed monitors everywhere to monitor the people. The monetary system became a government monopoly. The ruler was in no mood for thinking of modernization. Every time his subordinates asked to see him, he always answered, “I am watching TV for the moment. I am busy at the moment. Wait for a moment. I will come in a moment.” His subordinates waited and waited but could not see him. One day, the ruler wanted to build a monument to himself. He wasn’t modest at all. A huge mold was modified to build the monument. The moist season set in and the moisture made the building work harder. The monument was done. The moment the ruler saw it, he cried with momentary excitement. Now he had another ridiculous request. He forced all the ministers to pay homage to the monument monthly! Nobody was interested in his monotonous show, but none of them dared to say that. 这个国家的统治者像怪物一样可怕。他不知道分子是由原子组成的,于是他禁止别人去上学。他到处安装监视器来监控人民。金融系统成了政府的一项垄断。统治者没有情绪来思考现代化。每次他的下属要求见他,他总是回答:“我现在正在看电视。我此刻很忙。等一会儿。我马上就来”他的下属等啊等啊最后还是见不到他。一天,统治者像要给自己建一座纪念碑。他根本都不谦虚。一个巨大的模子被改造来建造他的纪念碑。潮湿的季节来了。湿气使建造更加艰难。但纪念碑还是造好了。统治者一看见纪念碑就因为瞬间的激动而大叫起来。现在他有另一个荒谬的要求了。他强迫所有的大臣每月一次参拜他的纪念碑!没人对他单调的表演感兴趣,但没人敢说出来。

The auditors suggested that she should attend N4 classes. So she went to the auditorium where MA was giving classes, whose voice was so loud that even an audiometer may fail to measure it. Even without a microphone, he could make himself heard just like talking through a megaphone. His voice was such an euphony that Hanmeimei wanted to record it in a phonograph. After that she decided to be a teacher just like MA and gave up her dream of being an instructor of a symphony orchestra.
