Tom is a very old man. After dinner, he likes walking in the street. And he goes to bed at seven o'clock.
But tonight, a car stopped at his house. A policeman helps him get out. He tells Tom's wife1, "The old man couldn't find his way in the street. He asked me to take him in the car."
After the policeman leaves2 there, his wife asks, "Tom, you go to the street every night. But tonight you can't find the way, what's the matter?"
The old man smiles like a child and says, "I couldn't find my way? I didn't want to walk home."
汤姆是一位老人，他喜欢在晚饭后到大街上散步，在7点回来睡觉。
但是，今天晚上一辆小汽车停在他家门前，汤姆在一位警察的帮助下走下汽车。警察告诉汤姆的妻子：“这位老人在街上迷路了，他让我用汽车送他回来。”
警察走后：“汤姆，你每天都到那条街上散步，但是今天你迷路了，你怎么了？”
这位老人像孩子般的笑道：“我迷路了？我是不想走路回家。”
