Sally was a student.It was going to be her mother's birthday. She wanted to buy her a present that would be nice and useful butnot expensive

A week before hermother's birthday, she went shopping after a quick and simple lunch.When she had been lookingfor half an hour, she found a shop that was selling cheapumbrellas,and decided to take a black one. Her mother had lost hers the monthbefore.

She thought,“You could carrythatwhen you are wearing clothes of any color.”So she decided to buy a lovelyblack umbrella and took it back to the schoolwith her until her classeshad finished.

On her way home in the train that evening shefelt hungry because she had such a small lunch that she wentalong to the buffet car(餐车) for a sandwich and a cup of coffee.

Sally told them her mother’sumbrella was missing and she had to get off at the next station.

After the three other passengers heardthe story, they asked her for her mother’s address so that they could send the umbrella to herif somebody had taken it by mistake, and brought it back after Sally had got out ofthe train.

The next week, Sally heard from her mother.It said, “Thank you very much for your lovely presents, but why did you send me three similar black umbrellas?”

三把黑伞

萨莉是个学生(student)，再过几天就是她母亲的生日了，她想给母亲买(buy)一个价格不高，但漂亮、实用的(niceand useful)礼物(present)。

在她母亲生日之前(before)的一个星期(week)，萨莉匆忙地吃了顿简单的(simple)午餐(lunch)后就出去购物(goshopping)了。看(look)了半个小时后，发现了一个卖(sell)便宜(cheap)雨伞(umbrella)的商店，她决定(decide)买把黑色的(black)伞。一个月(month)之前她母亲把她的伞(hers)丢(lose)了。

她想，“穿(wear)任何颜色(color)的衣服(clothes)，都可以携带(carry)黑伞。”于是她决定买把可爱的(lovely)黑伞带回学校(school)，直到(until)课(class)结束(finish)时才带回家。

那天晚上(evening)．在她乘火车回家的路上(on her way home)，因为午餐吃的很少(have such a small lunch)．她觉得饿(hungry)．于是走进餐车，要了一份三明治(sandwich)和一杯咖啡(a cup of coffee)。

她告诉他们自己为妈妈买的伞不见了，而且下一站(next station)她就得下车了。其他的(other)三位乘客听到(hear)后，都询问她母亲的地址(address)，以便(so that)有人知道拿错了(take it by mistake)伞再拿回来(bring back)时，他们可以把伞寄(send)给她母亲。

在接下来的一周，萨莉收到她母亲的来信(hear from her mother)，上面写道，“非常感谢你送我的漂亮礼物，但你为什么寄给我三把相似的(similar)黑伞呢？”
