介绍:
The Lost Husband
#815迷路的丈夫
David lived in England. One day in January he said to his wife, "I'm
going to fly to New York next week because I've got some work there." "Where are you going to stay there?" his wife asked. "I don't know yet." David answered. "Please send me your address from there in a
telegram (电报)," his wife said. "All right," David answered.
He flew to New York on January 31st and found a nice hotel in the
center of the city. He put his things in his room and then he sent his
wife a telegram. He put the address of his hotel in it.
In the evening he didn't have any work, so he went to a cinema. He
came out at nine o'clock and said, "Now I'm going back to my hotel
and have a nice dinner."
He found a taxi (出租车) and the driver said, "Where do you want to go?" But David didn't remember the name and address of his hotel.
"Which hotel are my things in?" he said, "And what am I going to do
tonight?" But the driver of the taxi did not know. So David got out and
went into a post office. There he sent his wife another telegram, and in
it he wrote, "Please send me my address at this post office."
