Mr. Brown lived in a house less than two miles from his office, so he was able to drive home every day for lunch. Every time he drove home at noon, he found many cars were parked outside his house and there was no room for his own car. He had to drive somewhere else to park his car. Then he had to walk back home. This made him very angry. He had to put up a board, which said
“No parking”in the garden facing the road, but nobody noticed it. People seemed to obey only a police notice with white letters on a blue board:
Mrs. Brown suggested that he steal a police notice. He was afraid to do so. She then suggested that he make one just like a police notice. He said he was not the police and couldn’t use the word
“police”. Several days later, Mr. Brown made a blue board with white letters:
“
Oh!”Mrs. Brown said,“You told me you weren’t going to use the word ‘police’, but why do you use it now?”“Really?”he asked,“Look again.”She started to laugh,“You are really clever.”根据短文和图表所提供的信息选择最佳答案。
