6 Percy Buttons珀西.巴顿斯 I have just moved to a house in Bridge Street. Yesterday a beggar knocked at my door. He asked me for a meal and a glass of beer. In return for this, the beggar stood on his head and sang songs. I gave him a meal. He ate the food and drank the beer. Then he put a piece of cheese in his pocket and went away. Later a neighbour told me about him. Everybody knows him. His name is Percy Buttons. He calls at every house in the street once a month and always asks for a meal and a glass of beer. 我刚刚搬进了大桥街的一所房子。昨天一个乞丐来敲我的门。他问我要一顿饭和一杯啤酒。作为回报，那乞丐头顶地倒立起来，唱起了歌。我给了他一顿饭。他吃的食物和喝啤酒。然后他把一块奶酪放在口袋里，走了。后来的一位邻居告诉了我他的情况。每个人都知道他。他的名字叫佩尔西。他这条街上的每户每月一次，而且总是要一顿饭和一杯啤酒
