One day women's dresses were on sale at a department store. A dignified middle-aged man decided to pick a dress for his wife, but soon he found himself being battered by frantic women.一天，一家百货公司的女装大减价，一位高贵的中年男士想给他的太太挑选一件女装。但是，没过多久，他就发现自己已被疯狂的女人们撞得踉踉跄跄。He stood it as long as he could; then, with head lowered and arms flailing, he plowed through the crowd.他竭力地忍耐着。后来，他低下头，挥舞双臂，挤过人群。"You there!" challenged a thrilling voice. "Can't you act like a gentleman?"“你干嘛?”有人尖声叫道，“你难道不能表现得像一位绅士吗?”"Listen," he said. "I have been acting like a gentleman for an hour. From now on, I am acting like a lady."“听着，”他说。“我已经像绅士一样表现了一个小时了。从现在起，我要表现得像一位女士。”
