Grammar Introduction
Read the text and analyze the meanings of the underlined forms below.
What Goes Around Comes Around
Long ago there lived a poor Scottish Farmer. His name was Fleming, and one day, while trying to make a living for his family, he had a cry for help coming from a nearby bog. He dropped his tools and ran to the bog.
There, mired to his waist in black muck, was a terrified boy, screaming, exhausted as though he had been struggling to free himself for hours. Farmer Fleming saved the lad from what could have been a slow and terrifying death.
The next day, a fancy carriage pulled up to the Scotsman’s sparse surroundings. An elegantly dressed nobleman stepped out and introduced himself as the father of the boy Mr Fleming had saved.
“Sorry not to have come to you yesterday. It’s high time I repaid you,” said the nobleman. “You saved my son’s life.”
“No, I can’t accept payment for what I did,” the Scottish farmer replied waving off the offer as if he had been the richest person in the world. At that moment, the farmer’s own son came to the door of the family hovel.
“Is that your son?” the nobleman asked. “Yes,” the farmer replied proudly.
“I’ll make you a deal. I would rather you let me provide him with the level of education my own son will enjoy. Is the lad is anything like his father, he’d better get some good start in life, he’ll no doubt grow to be a man we both will be proud of.” And that he did.
Farmer Fleming’s son attended the very best schools in time, graduated from St. Mary’s Hospital Medical School in London, and went on to become known throughout the world as the noted Sir Alexander Fleming, the discoverer of Penicillin.
Years afterward, the same nobleman’s son who was saved from the bog was stricken with pneumonia.
What saved his life this time? Penicillin.
The name of the nobleman? Lord Randolph Churchill … His son’s name?
Sir Winston Churchill.
