Passage 4

Some

time

ago

I

discovered

that

one

of

my

chairs

had

a

broken

leg.

I

didn't

think

there

would

be

any

difficulty

in

getting

it

mended,

as

there

are

a

whole

lot

of

antique(

古董

)

shops

near

my

home.

So

I

left

home

one

morning

carrying

the

chair

with

me.

I

went

into

the

first

shop

expecting

a

friendly

reception(

接待

). I was

quite wrong. The man

wouldn't even look at my chair.

The

second

shop,

though

slightly

more

polite,

was

just

the

same,

and

the

third and the fourth

—

so I decided that my approach must be wrong.

I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair

on the floor and said to the shopkeeper,

“

Would you like to buy a chair?

”

He looked it over carefully and said,

“

Yes, not a bad chair. How much do

you

want

for

it,

sir?
