  Mr Johnson wanted a car for a long time. His home is far from his factory. His wife has to get up earlier. When breakfast is ready, she wakes him up. Then he hurries to catch the early bus.

  One day, something was wrong with the clock and he was late for work. At the gate of the shop, he met the boss. Since then he always went to the car shops and watched the cars carefully.
