Mr Smith has a nice, brown coat. He loves it a lot. But his wife doesn’t like it because it’s old. She often says, “Give it to poor man.” But Mr Smith says, “No, I like this coat.”
But one day, a cigarette falls on it and makes a hole in it. So Mrs Smith says, “Please don’t wear it again.” Mr Smith takes it to a tailor’s shop and says to the tailor, “Please make another coat like this one.” The tailor does what he is told him and makes a new coat. Then the tailor makes a hole in it again with his cigarette in the same place.

但是一天，一隻香菸把這件衣服燒了一個洞。於是史密斯太太說：“請不要再穿它了。”史密斯先生把它拿到了一個裁縫店對裁縫說：“請給我做一件與這件一模一樣的外套。”裁縫按照他說的做了一件新外套。然後裁縫又用香菸在同一個地方燒了一個洞。
