Welcome to "English Stories".

                     DITTO

  At the entrance to a big office in London , there was a book on which all 
employees had to sign when they arrived each morning . At nine o'clock ,the 
manager's seceretary,who lived in a small flat above the office,had to draw a 
red line under the last name in the book,and anyone who came after that had to 
explain why he was late.

  Whenever there was a thick fog in the city,the first person to arrive late 
usually wrote'Delayed by fog'under the red line in the book,and then everybody 
else who came after that just put'ditto'underneath.

  But one foggy morning,the first man to arrive late wrote'My wift had a baby 
early this morning'instead of 'Delayed by fog'under the red line in the book. 
Twenty or thirty people who came after him put 'ditto'underneath this as usual.


This  story is my favorite .

me?

C:  Well, ma'ma, don't you want to have a pait of shoes to match your new dress?
We have some new shoes specially designed for this series of dress.
M:  Relly? That sounds interesting .Show me where they are,then.
C:  Here they are,please. What do you think of this pair?
M:  They look wonderful.But don't you think I should wear low heels with my 
dress?
C:  Yes,you're quite right.Then how about this milk-white pair?It seems they 
are more becoming to you dress.
M:  Let me try them on... well,they're comfortable,and nice...but, I have 
already had more than fifteen pairs of shoes in my drawer.

______Did you have the same experience?
  
  Tom saw an advertisement in a newspaper for a beautiful, modern bicycle which 
costs $54.99 ,so he went to the shop which had put the advertisement in and 
asked to see one of their wonderful bicycle.
  The shopkeeper was very happy to show one to Tom,who examined it carefully 
and then turned to the shopkeeper,saying,"There isn't a lamp on this 
bicycle ,but there was one on the bicycle in your advertisement."
  "Yes ,sir."answered the shopkeeper."but the lamp isn't included in the price 
of the bicycle ,It's an extra."
  "Not included in the price of the bicycle?"Tom said angrily,"But that's not 
honest.If the lamp is in the advertisement ,it should have been included in the 
price you have there."
  "Well,sir", answered the shopkeeper calmly,"there's also a girl on the 
bicycle in our advertisement, but we don't supply one of them with the bicycle 
either."

Dialogues
Situation 1
   Cheng Ying wants to go to tailor.She asks her classmate Li Ping to recommend 
a good tailor to her.
Cheng Ying(C):  It's said you made a new dress recently at the dressmarker near 
our school.I want to have a dree made,too. How about that dressmaker?
Li Ping (L):  But you have already got a lot.
C:  Yes ,but some are old ,others are out of fashion.
L:  Well,you're not a fashion model,You needn't keep up with the fashion.
C:  Li Ping ,you are going too far. Don't you know the common saying 
that "clothes make the man?" As a girl student ,I like new clothes for a 
change.Please recommend a dressmaker to me.
L:  In the case,it's OK. To tell you the truth,I don't think that one is very 
good.I had some trouble there last week.The dress made there is too tight to 
wear.
C:  Why didn't you go back and reason with the tailor?
L:  I did,but he refused to alter it for me .So I went to the manager at last.
C:  What did the manager say?
L:  Of course,he criticized the tailor and said he would see what he could do.
C:  That was good,but I don't want to have the same trouble .Don't you know any 
other tailor nearly?
L:  Well ,there is one next to the Taibai Department Store. It's said to be a 
good one.
C:  Thank you for your recommendation.
L:  My pleasure. I'm waiting to enjoy your new dress.

Situation 2
  Cheng Ying asks the dressmaker what fabric she should buy for a dress.
Dressmaker(D):  Hello,what can I do for you?
C:  Yes,I want to have a dress made. But I don't know what's in fashion and 
what kind of fabric is best.
D:  Oh,it just depends. When do you plan to wear it?
C:  I want it for the summer.
D:  Do you want it short or long?
C:  What's in fashion?
D:  Here's the pattern book;see if you can find something you like in it.
C:  Thank you ,Mm...I would like this short style.
D:  You are a college student,aren't you? A short one will make you look young 
and lovely.And for your size...1.5 meters is enough.
C:  How about the material?
D:  Of course,silk is ideal for summer wear,but it's somewhat expensive.Linen 
is realistic for a student.It's cool and keeps its shape,But the most important 
thing is it's cheap.
C:  Sounds good.How long will it be until it is ready,please?
D:  A little more than a week.
C:  Is it possible for me to get it sooner?
D:  In this case,you have to pay more. Something like 2 yuan for an earlier day.
C:  Then how about two days before the regular date?
D:  OK,But be sure to bring the material today.
C:  All right.I'll go buy it now.

it's ready.
Tailor(T):  Well ,just for a moment.I'll check it. Yes,here you are.
C:  (Tries it on.) Oh,it's beautiful! Your workmanship's perfect.But it feels a 
bit close around the waist.And I want something simple,not all these frills.
T:  I am sorry,but we have made it according to your measurments and the style 
you suggested.
C:  Yes,I know ,It's my fault,I didn't know that I would look so funny in it 
until I treid it on,Is there anything you can do about it?
T:  I think we can make a slight alteration for you. According to the rules,you 
must pay for it. Since you're a student,I'll do it for free.Would you come 
again tomorrow afternoon?
C:  All right,Thanks.

                   At the Tailor's & Derssmaker's(3)____The Different

  Have you noticed that men and woman have very different opinions about 
clothing? Mr.Li ,for example ,has probably been wearing the same clothes for 
several years and intends to wear them for several more.He's very happy if his 
colthes last for a long time. He only needs a couple of suits and a sport coat 
and slacks. Occasionally he buys a shirt,a pair of socks,some underwear,or a 
new tie.Mr.Li is confident that he has enough clothing.
  He thinks his wife has plenty of clothes,too.She has several dresses,some 
shirts and blouses,and a few pair of shoes.But whenever they plan to go out for 
the evening ,she says,"I don't know what to do.I have nothing to wear.""What 
about all the things in your closet?"Mr.Li asks his wife.But he knows what the 
answer will be .One dress is out of style,anothe is too small or too short,and 
the third just doesn't appeal to her any more.Sometimes Mr.Li can persuade his 
wife that something from her closet looks good on her.But once in a while she 
insists on going shopping for new shoes.
  Mr.Li talks a lot,but he doesn't really mind if his wife goes to her 
dressmaker's to have new clothes or buys some fashionable ones once in a while. 
Actually ,he likes her to look attractive when they go to the theathee or to a 
party.
