Harry is driving a car on his way home. He likes driving very much. He is thinking about the coming
evening." Oh, my son, Robin, is ten years old today! I am so happy! I have a nice box for him. He is
going to be very happy to open the box. I must drink some whisky (威士忌) for his birthday. I have a
bottle of whisky just on the right seat of the car." He looks at the nice green bottle of whisky and smiles.
The traffic lights are red now, but Harry is thinking and he can't see them. He doesn't stop his car
and his car hits another car in front of his. An old man is in the front car. The old man is very afraid and
says to Harry, "What are you doing? You nearly kill me!"
"Yes," Harry answers, "I am very sorry!" He takes the bottle of whisky out of his car and s
ays.
"Drink some of this, then you are feeling better." He gives the old man some whisky and the man drinks
it. But the old man shouts again, "You nearly kill me!"
Harry gives him the bottle again, and the old man drinks more. He drinks more and more. At last he
drinks a lot of whisky. The old man smiles and says to Harry, " Thank you. I feel much better now. But
why aren't you drinking?" "Oh, well," Harry answers, "I don't want to drink any whisky now. I'm going
to sit here and wait for the policeman."
