Question

　　A young man once went to town and bought himself a pair of trousers. When he got home, he went to his bedroom and tried them on. He found that they were about two inches longer.

　　He went to the kitchen where his mother and his two sisters were washing up the tea things. “This pair of trousers is too long,” he said. “It needs shortening(缩短) by about two inches. Would one of you mind doing this for me, please?” His mother and his sisters were busy and none of them said anything. However, the mother shortened the trousers by two inches after she had finished washing, but she did not tell her daughters about it.

　　Later on, after supper, the elder sister remembered her brother's trousers. She was a kind-hearted girl, so she did it again without saying anything to anyone. The young sister went to the cinema, but when she came back, she, too, remembered what her brother had said, so she took two inches off the legs of the new trousers.

　　You can imagine the look on the young man's face when he put the trousers on the next morning.
