Answer 1

分析 翻译：
十年前老乔治买了那副黑色的手套．它们是用柔软的，温暖的，很结实的羊羔皮做的．到那时，他已经戴破了更便宜的人造材料的手套．这些手套的持续时间不超过三年．他首先决定买昂贵的手套，因为他们会让他在别人面前感觉很好．
乔治不让一滴水或雨触摸他昂贵的手套，所以他们看上去很新．失去了这个最喜欢的东西，对他来说几乎就好像失去了一个孩子．真倒霉！在元旦那天，他失去了昂贵的手套．
…
回家．乔治不知所措．寒冬季节，他不能没有一双手套．如果他买了便宜的，他会很快更换他们．如果他买了一双新的皮革手套，现在就要花费50美元．他不安的是，人们不会再归还他们在路上找到的东西．
假期结束后，可怜的乔治决定再买一副皮手套．上地铁之前，他进入沃尔玛超市再次看到他的手套已经返回到失物招领处．"他们是什么颜色的？"办公室的女人又问．
"黑色的"，他给出了同样的答案．她望着她的抽屉，抽出一副皮手套．"是吗？"
"是的！那是我的！"乔治的眼睛里带着极大的喜悦解释道．
