A Shoe Pattern

Harry is eighteen now.He studies in a middle school.His parents like him very

much and hope he can become a famous man.So they often tell him to study hard and

they do all for him.They call him at six in the morning.After breakfast his father

takes him to school in a car and in the afternoon,as soon as the young man comes

back,the supper is ready.Of course,he never washes his clothes or goes to buy

something in the shops.

Once Harry’s father was sent to London on business.He would stay there for

half a year.Leaving,he told his wife to take good care of their son.The woman had

to get up earlier and did all what her husband did before.And two months later she

was so tired that she was ill in bed.Now the young man got into trouble.He couldn’t

do any housework.He had to do as his mother told him.Even he didn’t know where to

get on the bus!

Yesterday Harry’s mother found his shoes were worn out and told him to buy

a new pair in the shop.But he didn’t know how to choose.The woman had a sigh(叹息)and gave him a shoe pattern(鞋样)and told him to buy a pair of shoes himself.It

was Saturday today Harry didn’t go to school.With a policeman’s help,he found a

shop.The shopkeeper was friendly to him.The man brought a lot of shoes and asked

him to choose.When he was trying on a pair,suddenly he remembered something and took

them off.The man was surprised and asked,“What’s the matter,young man?”

“I’m sorry.I’ve left the shoe pattern at home!”
