A long, long time ago there was a young boy named Huang-xiang. He lived happily with his mother and father. But sadly, when Huang-xiang was just nine years old, his mother 1)suddenly 2)passed away.
Of course Huang-xiang and his father were both very sad. But little Huang-xiang was especially sad to see his father mourning day and night.
After a while Huang-xiang 3)noticed that his father was not sleeping well. 4)Apart from the grief he felt, he also had to 5)deal with the bad weather. Where they lived was very, very hot in the summer, and the winters were always 6)icy cold. Their grass hut did little to 7)protect them from the seasons.
