Question

【题目】In the old times, there was a man who wanted to buy a pair of new shoes. He measured (量) his feet with a straw (稻草)，then went out to a shop in the town.

The shoe shop boss took out a pair of new shoes, and let him try them. But when he looked into his pocket, he found that the straw had lost. So he said, “I’m sorry, I forgot the size! Let me go home to take it.” After these words, he ran out of the shop. When he got back home, he was out of breath. With the straw in his hand, he hurried to the shoe shop again, but he was disappointed (失望) because it was closed.
