When he was back at home he felt so sick that he could(4)h eat and drink any more.He sent for the doctor and took some(5) ,but nothing could cure him.(6)W Ying Chen went to ask Du Xuan how he got so seriously ill,Du told him about the snake in the wine.Chen returned home,thought hard,(7)b he could not find an answer.(8)S the bow on the wall caught his eyes.“That’s it!” he shouted.He immediately sent for Du Xuan.He seated him where he sat before and offered him a cup of wine.Du Xuan saw the snake-like shadow again.Ying Chen said,pointing at the shadow,“The ‘snake’ in the cup is(9)n but a shadow of the bow on the wall!” Now that Du Xuan knew(10)w it was,he felt much easier.And strange enough,his illness disappeared the next moment.
