Question

Mrs. Smith often felt lonely when her husband went to work．The room was small and she always spent only half an hour tidying it．She couldn’t get up early in the morning, so Mr. Smith had to cook breakfast himself．She usually had some bread and milk for lunch and only cooked supper for herself and her husband．They had no television．Mr. Smith always went to bed at nine．

"Excuse me, madam," said the man．"Could you tell me how to get to the nearest hospital, please?"

Mrs. Smith looked at him up and down．"He seems a farmer," the woman said to herself．"Let me laugh at him．"

Then she turned to him said．"Lie down in the middle of the street and you'll soon be sent to a hospital．"

"Please set an example (示范) to me, then," said the man．

She had to tell the way to him and then she said, "I think you've been in a city for the first time．It's much more beautiful than the field．Is that right?"

"Yes, madam," said the farmer with a smile．"But I think it is built on the field!"
