In the morning, I heard Grandma tell Mum she needed a football for the New Year’s Eve dinner. “A football for the dinner? What’s it for?” I wondered. “Anyway, I will get one! I can do something nice for Grandma.” I remembered my friend Joe had an old football. I went out quietly and found him. I gave him my favourite model car in exchange for his football. I took the football home, shined it and put it on the living room table secretly. I waited in my room for Grandma to notice it. “Mike!” Mum shouted. I ran to the living room. “Why can’t you put your things where they belong? Get the football out of here!” “But it’s for Grandma! She said she needed a football for the New Year’s Eve dinner.” I said. “A football for the dinner?” Mum laughed. “No, Grandma needs a fruit bowl, not a football.” “Fruit bowl sounds like football! I have done a silly thing!” I went back to my room, embarrassed and disappointed. Before dinner, Mum came in and asked me to meet my uncles and aunts. When I walked into the living room, Grandma was showing them a pretty fruit bowl with the old football in its centre, I was surprised. “Look!” Grandma said. “Today Mike brought me a nice present, this football. Isn’t it beautiful?” She continued. “It’s beautiful, yes — because anything from a child is beautiful.” 1．How old was Mike when the story happened? 2．What did Mike give Joe to get the football? 3．Whom did Mike expect to notice the football? 4．Why did Mike think he had done a silly thing? 5．What did Grandma do with the football?
