有一天他進(jìn)城去商店里買一些東西。然后他走進(jìn)一家餐廳在一張桌子旁坐下。

When he looks around, he sees several old people put eyeglasses on before reading their newspapers.

當(dāng)他環(huán)顧四周，他看到一些老人在看報(bào)紙之前戴上了眼鏡。

所以午餐過后，他走到商店去買一些眼鏡。商店里的人讓他試戴許多眼鏡，但湯姆總是說:“不，戴上這些眼鏡我就認(rèn)不了字了。”

The man becomes more and more surprised. He says, “Excuse me, but can you read?”

這個(gè)人變得越來越驚訝，他說：“冒昧問一下，你認(rèn)字嗎？”

“No, of course I can’t!” Tom says, “I think some good glasses can help me.”

“當(dāng)然不認(rèn)識(shí)！”湯姆說，“我覺得某些好的眼鏡可以幫助我?！?/span>
