19、房子，使Flinch先生不快乐，也不是因为他很穷，因为并非如此。Flinch先生是一个吝啬鬼。他从未给过别人一个便士（他从未给过别人一个微笑），他是一个吝啬和凄惨的人。Flinch很悲惨，是因为他的邻居。Flinch先生那灰色的、阴森的房子的一侧，有一座红色的房子，那是属于Carl Clutch修理工的。Carl爱汽车，摩托车，面包车和卡车。每天早上,Flinch先生起床时，就不断的听到锤子声，扳手的叮当声和发动机加速运转起来的声音，整条街都被这声响晃动起来。在另一侧，一所明亮的蓝色的房子里，住着一位叫Poppy Pink的音乐教师。每天早上，Poppy坐下来，在她那架美妙的钢琴上弹奏美妙的乐

20、曲。早餐后，她的学生就来了。小提琴发出了刺耳的声音，鼓发出了雷鸣般的声音，低音管在咆哮着，Flinch先生关上了窗子，但这声音还是穿透了墙壁。Brum-brum，totle-toot，bang！他的整个房子都在颤抖着。他用手塞住耳朵。他在墙上敲击以表示抗议但邻居们听不到。他们实在是太快乐了。他们修理着汽车和做音乐，他们热爱他们的工作。Brum-brum  ，totle-toot，bang！ Flinch先生又砸墙又斥责，直到他在壁纸上敲出了洞，也没有用。Flinch先生把自己锁在壁橱里，他用毛巾把头包起来。他愤怒的写了许多信，但又把它们全都撕碎了，“邮票的花费太贵了！”他说。甚至到了

21、床上，他戴着一顶帽子来阻止噪音。但是发动机还是在加速旋转，音乐还是在发出刺耳的声音。Flinch先生就像被夹在噪音三明治中间的灰色的馅。“不能再这样继续下去了！”Flinch对自己说。他甚至大声的吼了出来 。2、拙劣的伎俩 Flinch先生去敲Carl先生的房子，Carl在修汽车，他很容易的溜进了他的厨房，把一只死老鼠放在了他的冰箱里。“就要摆脱他了 ”Flinch说  还贱兮兮的笑了一下。“没有人愿意住一间有老鼠的房子。”午夜，Flinch爬上了屋顶，小心翼翼的在瓦上爬过。他把他的头埋在Poppy家的烟囱，对着下面呜呜地学着鬼叫。“这也能把她搞定了”。他咧嘴一笑，“没有人

22、愿意住一间有鬼的房子。”然后，他爬了下去，上床睡觉了。第二天一早，Flinch被巨大的噪声吵醒了 ，很多的汽车和卡车停在外面。他看了看窗外，Carl坐在外面的马路上，面前放了一张桌子，桌上摆着有一个水壶，一条面包和一瓶番茄酱。Carl 对Flinch先生喊道：“今天不能用我的厨房了，呃，我妈妈正在打扫，她让我到外边来吃我的早饭。那就是我为什么想到这个好主意：外卖早餐，司机们可以在这里停车并且买早餐。”就在这时，Poppy跑了过来，“噢Flinch ，噢，Carl，猜猜昨晚都发生了什么。” “我不猜” Flinch自鸣得意的假笑着：“你说吧。” Poppy高兴的眉开眼笑：“昨

23、天晚上 ，天使在我的烟囱里唱歌了，他们唱了，我发誓” 但她又皱皱眉  ，“但这音乐非常不好听，我想天使们想要有新歌来唱，我非常确定他们想让我给他们写歌，我一定会写，哦，我一定会写！”  她确实这样做了。 Poppy虽然白天还得教音乐，但是夜里，她给天使写歌。她做的曲子非常好听又热闹，又是拍擦又是打鼓的， Flinch真受不了了。3、Flinch的计划Flinch去了隔壁Carl的家，他拿出一大把的钞票给Carl 看“你搬家的那天，这些钱就是你的了”  他说。“都听你的”。  Carl在抹布上擦了擦手。“只要我能修理汽车，我在哪里都是快乐的，我把房子一卖掉，就搬走 ”。接下来Fl
