Question

Lester was walking in the street with a huge box. A stranger walked up to him and asked, “Have you got the time?”

Lester stopped, put down the box, looked at his watch and said, “It’s 5:45.”

“Hey, what a nice watch!” said the stranger.

Lester smiled and said, “It’s very special.” Then he pressed a button and a voice told the time in Chinese. Lester continued, “It can ‘speak’ many languages.” The stranger seemed very interested in the watch. Lester then pressed another button and a small map appeared on the watch.

“I want to buy your watch!” said the stranger.

“Oh, no, I’m not selling it,” said Lester.

“I’ll give you $1,000!”

“Oh, no.”

“I’ll give you $5,000!” The stranger quickly took much money out of his bag and said. “Here is the money. Take it or leave it.”

Finally, Lester took off the watch and gave it to the stranger. When the stranger was about to leave, Lester pointed to the huge box and said, “Don’t forget your battery (电池).”
