 When Mr David retired(退休), he bought a small house in a village near the sea. He liked it and hoped to live a quiet life in it.

 But to his great surprise, many tourists(游客)came to see his house in summer holidays, for it was the most interesting building in the village. From morning to night there were tourists outside the house. They kept looking into the rooms through the windows and many of them even went into Mr David's garden. This was too much for Mr David. He decided to drive the visitors away. So he put a notice on the window. The notice said: If you want to satisfy your curiosity(好奇心), come in and look round. Price(價(jià)格): twenty dollars.
