我不想走回家

張亞麗

[英語原文]

Tom is a very old man. After dinner， he likes walking in the street. And he goes to bed at seven oclock.

But tonight， a car stopped at his house. A policeman helps him get out. He tells Toms wife，“The old man couldnt find his way in the street. He asked me to take him in the car.”

After the policeman leaves there， his wife asks， “Tom， you go to the street every night. But tonight you cant find the way， whats the matter？”

The old man smiles like a child and says，“I couldnt find my way？ I didnt want to walk home.”

[漢語翻譯]

湯姆是一個老人，他喜歡在晚飯后到大街上散步，7點時回來睡覺。

但是，今天晚上，一輛小汽車停在了他家門前，湯姆在一個警察的幫助下走下汽車。警察告訴湯姆的妻子：“這個老人在街上迷路了，他讓我用汽車送他回來?！?/p>

警察走后，湯姆的妻子問道：“湯姆，你每天都到那條街上散步，但今天你竟然迷路了，你怎么了？”

這個老人像孩子般地笑道：“我迷路了？我只是不想走路回家?！?h3>[快人快語]

湯姆是一個老人，堅持每天晚飯后散步?？墒牵裉焱砩?，他在散步途中卻不想繼續(xù)走路了。因此，他搞了一個惡作劇，讓警察送他回家。

同學(xué)們，湯姆的妻子知道真相后，她會怎么說呢？
