2. There is a village by the river. The river is long and wild.
3. Pat is seven, and his whole family move here.
4. The water is clean and nonstop. The bed of river is wide open.
5. They said here could grow grapes. Grapes bring money and success.
6. People start to grow and harvest grapes. And, more people come to stay.
7. Father tells Pat, “we can build our home here.” He continues, “we would win over the nature, if we work hard enough.”
8. Pat loves to run and play in the grape yard. The place is like a maze.
9. One night, a giant typhoon blows and rolls over. The whole village is gone.
10. Fortunately, Pat’s father takes him away before the stormy night.
11. "Where are the grapes?" Pat asks. “They are washed away by the typhoon,” Father replies.
12. “Where is the village?” Pat asks. "Son, it's under the sliding mud," Father replies.
13. “Son, we will never win over the nature. I was wrong then,” Father sighs.
14. “I know. Father, we should obey our nature, right?” Pat asks.
15. Father nods, “Yes, we should obey and solute the nature. Next, we will find a safe and nice place to live on.”
