Fred telephoned his wife. "I've got two free tickets for the theatre tonight, he told her." Meet me outside the office. We' II have something to eat and then go on to the theatre." Fred's wife was very pleased. They hadn't been to the theatre for a long time. She met her husband as he told her. They had dinner and got to the theatre just in time.
At the entrance Fred took out his wallet to get the tickets. "It's very strange，" he said. "They aren't here!" "Try your pockets," said his wife. But the tickets weren't there, either Then Fred looked very embarrassed (尴尬)."What's the matter?" asked his wife. "Well." Fred said. I remember what I did with my tickets. I put them in my bag. But because I wasn't I going home, I left in the office!"
