Mr. Smith gave his wife ten pounds for her birthday- ten pretty pound notes. So the day after her birthday, Mrs. Smith went shopping. She queued(排队) for a bus, got on and sat down next to an old lady. After a while, she noticed that the old lady’s handbag was open. In- side it se saw a wad(卷叠) of pound notes exactly like the ones her husband had given her. So she quickly looked into her own bag, the notes were gone! Mrs. Smith was sure that the old lady who was sitting next to her had stolen them. She thought she had to call the police, but, as she disliked a fuss and getting people into trouble, she decided to take back the money from the old lady’s handbag and didn’t say anything. She looked round the bus to make sure nobody was watching, and then she carefully put her hand into the old lady’s bag, took the notes, and put them in her own bag.

"With the money you gave me for my birthday, of course," she replied."Oh, what’s that, then" he asked as he pointed to a wad of ten pound on the table.
