Mr. Jones went to the sea for a holiday one summer, and he stayed in a cheap hotel because he didn't have much money.
At 7:00 o'clock the first morning a woman came and said, “Please get up.” Mr. Jones was not happy to get up early, so he said. “I don't want to. I'm still very tired.” The woman went away.
But at 8 o'clock another one came in and said to Mr. Jones, “Mr. Jones, please get up! We need the sheets (床单) from your bed.” Mr. Jones still wanted to sleep, so he answered angrily, “Why?”“Because breakfast is coming,” answered the woman, “and we need to put them on our tables. They are our table — clothes, too.”
