The books borrowed from the library (is/are) on my desk.

In a small Italian town, hundreds of years ago, a small business owned owned a large sam of money to a loan-shark. The loan-shark was a very old unattractive looking buy that just so happened to fancy the business owners daughter

He decided to offer the businessman a deal that would completely wipe out the debut he owned him. However, the catch was that we would only wipe out the debut if he could marry the businessmans daughter. Needless to say, this proposal was met with a look of disgust

The loan-shark said that he would place tw pebbles into a bag, one white and one black. The daughter would then have to reach into the bag and pick out a pebble. If it was black, the debut would b wiped, but the loan-shark would then marry her. If it white, the debut would also be wiped, but the daughter wouldn have to marry the loan-shark

Standing on a pebble-strewn bath in the businessmans garden, the loan-shark bent over and picked up two pebbles. Whilst he was picking them up, the daughter noticed that her picked up two black pebbles and placed them both into the bag

He then asked the daughter to reach into the bag and pick one. The daughter naturally had three choices s to what she could have done .

1. Refuse to pick a pebble from the bag

2. Take both pebbles out of the bag and exposed the loan-shark for cheating

3. Pick a pebble from the bag full well knowing it was black and sacrifice herself for her father freedom.

She drew out a from the bag, and before looking at it sheaccidentally dropped it into the midst of the other pebbles. She said to the loan-shark, Oh, how clumsy of me. Never mind, if you look into the bag for the one that is left, you will be able to tell which pebble I picked.

The pebble left in the bag is obviously black, and seeing as the loan-shark didn want to be exposed, he had to play along as if the pebble the daughter dropped was white, and clear her father debt.

Once, a farmer owned a donkey and a lapdog. The donkey worked hard all day, hauling heavy loads. The lapdog stayed with his master all day and lived in the house with him. He did not work, but allowed to sit on the master’s lap. The donkey grew jealous of the lapdog.                 “Perhaps if I behaved like the dog, like wagging my tail and jumping on the master, he will start loving me as much as he loves the dog.“ So, the donkey decided to wait for his chance.                 One day, when he was left unattended, the donkey broke his halter and ran into the farmhouse kitchen. There, the farmer sat at the table. The donkey rushed to the farmer began wagging his tail vigorously, and knocked off all the china from the table. He, then, started jumping around and frolicking like a little dog and finally plonked himself down on the farmer’s lap. The shocked farmer yelled for help. The farmhands came running in, dragged the donkey off to his stable, and gave him a beating he wouldn’t forget for the rest of his life.
