Mr. West wanted to buy his wife a Christmas (圣诞节) present, but he was always very busy, so he was never able to find time to go to the shops. At last when it was the week before Christmas, and the shops were very’crowded, he decided that he could not wait any longer. One day he didn’t have lunch in a restaurant as usual. He bought some bread, ate it quickly, then went out to a big shop near his office. The shop was full of women who were also buying presents during their lunch hour. Mr. West stood politely at the edge (边,刀口) of a crowd (人群,挤满) of women who were pushing forward to try to get to the shop-assistants. He tried to move forwards slowly, taking his turn with the others, but more and more women were coming into the shop and pushing past him.
After half an hour, he was just as far from the shop-assistants as he had been when he came (来,出现) in, and his lunch hour was coming to an end, so he decided to change his way of doing things. He put his head down, gave aloud shout and started to push his way towards the front of the crowd as hard as he could.
The women around him became very angry, and began to shout at him, "ladies," he answered them, "I have been behaving (举动) like a gentleman (绅士) for the past hour, and it has got me nowhere (一事无成), so now I am starting to behave like a lady (夫人,女士)!"
