was not far from his house, the light on the cart went out. He tried but could not mend (修理) it. He was
near his home, and so he went along the road without a light. When a policeman saw this, he stopped the
old carter.
"Where is your light?" asked the policeman. "No man may take a cart along the road at night without
a light. You know that. You have broken the law (法律)." "I had a light, but it has just gone out," said the
old man.
"I don't believe that story," said the policeman. He took out a book and got ready to write. What's
your name and where do you live?" he asked.
"Please don't take my name," said the old man. "My home is just there. You can see it from here. I
had a light nearly the whole way. I haven't come far without a light."
"You came all the way without a light. What's your name?"
The carter quickly took the policeman's hand and put it down on top of the light. The light was still

An expensive car speeding down the main street of a small town was soon over-taken by a young motorcycle policeman. As he started to take out the ticket, the woman in the car said proudly. “Before you go any further, young man, I think you should know that the mayor of this city is a good friend of mine.”
The officer did not say a word, but kept writing.
“I am also a friend of Chief of Police Barnes,” continued the woman, getting angrier each moment.
Still he kept on writing.
“Young man,” she said, “I know Judge Lawson and State Senator Patton.”
Handing the ticket to the woman, the officer asked pleasantly. “Tell me, do you know Bill Bronson?”
“No. Why?” she replied.
“Well, this is the man you should have known,” he said, going back to his motorcycle, “I am Bill Bronson.”
