Though she thought for a moment, she finally went in and asked to see a dress that was in the window. The assistant who served her didn’t like the way she was dressed.
The assistant told her that the dress was sold. The woman walked out of the shop angrily and decided to punish (惩罚) the assistant next day.
She returned to the shop the next morning, dressed in a fur coat, with a handbag in one hand and a long umbrella in the other hand. After finding the rude assistant, she asked for the same dress. Not realizing who she was, the assistant was eager to serve her this time.
With great difficulty, the assistant climbed into the shop window to get the dress. As soon as she saw it, the woman said she didn’t like it. She enjoyed herself for making the assistant bring almost everything in the window. But finally, she still bought the dress she had first asked for.

George Stephenson was born in 1781 in a poor family. He had no money to go to school. When he was only 8, he had to start work. When Stephenson was 14, he became his father’s helper. He spent a lot of time learning the engine. And at weekends he often took it to pieces and studied each piece carefully. Soon he became a very good worker though he couldn’t read or write.
He began to learn the English alphabet when he was 17. Every day after he did 12 hours’ work, he walked a long way to have lessons. On his 18th birthday, he wrote his own name for the first time.
George invented many things in his life , for example, the train was the greatest one. Today when we take trains from one place to another, we’ll think of this great man----George Stephenson.
