Many years ago,in a city in Arabia,There was a boy called Aladdin.He lived with his mother in a little house near the market,and they were very poor.Aladdin's mother worked all day,and sometimes half the night,but Aladdin never helped her.

He was a lazy boy and he did not like to work.He only wanted to play all the time.Every morning he ran through the streets to the market.There,he talked and laughed and played with his friends all day.Then in the evening he went home for his dinner.

And every night his mother said to him:'oh,Aladdin,Aladdin!You are a lazy boy-a good-for nothing!When are you going to do some work,my son?'But Aladdin never listened to his mother.
