  Mr Smith was often careless. He always forgot something. In the office, his workmates had to remind him of the i 1 things. At home, his family often told him to be careful. Sometimes he had to write them on his hand before he went out on business. But he forgot them when he did some w 2 . Of course it brought him a lot of trouble.

  One day Mr Smith and his wife were asked to dinner. The woman put the key to the garage into his pocket and told him to take good care of it. When he drove his car out of the garage, she found his jacket was d 3 . she said, “Go back to change a clean jacket, dear, or they will l 4 at you.”

  The man did as his wife said. That evening they met many f 5 at the party and they were all happy. When the dinner was over, Mr and Mrs Smith were both tired. They hoped to go to bed as soon as p 6 . he drove fast and soon they got home. Mrs Smith got off and wanted to go into the house and her husband drove the car into the open garage.

  “What are you standing here for?” he asked.

  “I can't find the k 8 to the door.” Answered the woman.

Some time ago I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn't think there would be any difficulty in getting it repaired, as there are a lot of antique (古董) shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception(接待). I was quite wrong. The man wouldn't even look at my chair.

    The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth -- so I decided that my approach must be wrong.

    I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, "Would you like to buy a chair?"

    He looked it over carefully and said,- "Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you want for it, sir?"

    “Twenty pounds," I said.

    “OK," he said, "I'll give you twenty pounds."

    “It's got a slightly broken leg," I said.

    ‘'Yes, I saw that, it's nothing."

    Everything was going according to my plan and l was getting excited. "What will you do with it?" I asked.

    “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done."

    “I'll buy it," I said.

    “What do you mean? You've just sold it to me," he said.

    "Yes, I know but I've changed my mind. I am sorry. I'll give you twenty-seven pounds for it."

    “You must be crazy," he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair."

    “You're right," I said. "And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, 'Would you repair this chair for me?"'

    “I wouldn't have agreed to do it," he said. "We don't do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I'II repair this for you. Shall we say for five pounds?" He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.
