Jack lived in a village. As his father was very poor, Jack had little pocket money. One day a circus came to the village. Jack was very fond of going to the circus. He wanted to go very much, but he had no money. After lunch Jack went out and wandered slowly round the circus tent. Inside the tent the band was playing music and people were shouting happily. Jack was excited, so he tried putting his head first through a small opening in the tent. Just then, a guard found Jack out. "Hey, this is not an entrance,"he shouted and pulled him out.

Then Jack went to the back of the tent. There was another opening. Another guard was standing there. This time Jack turned backwards and tried to enter with his legs first. When the guard saw him, he shouted, "Hey, this is not an exit. You can's leave from here."He pushed Jack into the tent. So Jack got to see the Circus after all.

杰克住在一个村庄里。因为杰克的父亲很穷，所以他只有很少的零用钱。一天，村里来了个马戏团。杰克很喜欢马戏。他非常想去看，但是他没有钱。午饭后，杰克走了出去，绕着马戏团的帐篷慢慢晃悠。帐篷里，乐队正在演奏音乐，人们高兴地欢呼。杰克很激动，所以他试图把头伸进帐篷上的一个小口子里。正在这时，一个保安发现了杰克。“嗨，这里不是入口，”他大叫，然后把杰克拉了出来。

随后杰克又走到帐篷的后面。这里也有一个口子。另一个保安站在那里。这次杰克背过身去，试着先把脚伸了进去。保安看到了他，保安大叫，“嗨，这不是出口。你不能从这里出去。”他把杰克推进帐篷里。这样，杰克终于看到了马戏表演。
