Gradually，more and more people came to the farmer's house to see the "tiny" man.Like the emperor in Lilliput，to make a lot of money from me，the farmer decided to take me on tour around the country.
"Please don't do this，" I heard Glumdalclitch say to her father，it is too dangerous for him." She is the only person who has cared for me in the past months.And She is my only friend on Brobdingnag.
But her father did not listen，and soon my life became one long tour.
One day，the queen heard about me.She liked me so much that she invited me to live with her.She paid the farmer a thousand pieces of gold to keep me!
For the first time on Brobdingnag I felt safe and happy.
The queen saw me as her pet and treated me well.She gave me a little box to live in with furniture and everything I needed.
Every Wednesday，I had many interesting conversations with the king and he was curious about the life in England and Europe.He asked me about the laws（法律） of my country and its government and religions.
I explained "The system in my country works very well because the government makes many laws and there are many books to teach them how to govern." "But things are not always perfect，" I continued.
The king listened carefully.But then suddenly he started laughing.
"How important you little people think you are，" he said.You tell me you have many books about how to govern your country，are you all so stupid？Your system is not as good as you think."
"You must not be influenced by my size，sir." I said. "In my country there are many tall people who are extremely stupid butbutmany short people are very clever.This is true of everything.
I am happy to say the king agreed with me on this.
"Size and appearance do not matter，" I concluded.
