Mr. Green lives in a small town, but he works in a big city. One day, Mr. Green drives his car out and washes it. When a friend comes and sees the car, he says, "That's a nice car. Is it yours?" "Sometimes," answers Mr. Green. The friend is surprised (惊讶的)." Sometimes?" he asks, "What do you mean?" Mr. Green answers slowly," Well, when there is a party in the town, my daughter, Jane, drives it. When there is a football match, it is my son Joe's turn. When it looks really nice and clean, my wife Linda uses it. And when it needs cleaning, it's mine."
It's a rainy day. A woman with a dog gets on a bus. It's a big dog and its feet are not clean. The conductor doesn't want the dog to sit on the chair. But the woman says to the conductor," Oh, I will pay for my dog. Can he sit here like the other people?" The conductor looks at the dog and says," Yes, madam, but like the other people, he must not put his feet on the chair."
