John and Laura were husband and wife.
Laura had beautiful long, brown hair, shining like silk. Every morning she
combed her hair many times. John had a golden pocket watch left by his father.
He loved it very much. Christmas was coming. They both wanted to give a present to each other. John went to the shop and found a nice comb. He thought Laura’s hair would look prettier with the comb on it. But the comb was so expensive that he couldn’t afford (买得起) it. He thought and thought. At last, he sold his pocket watch and bought the comb. When he got home, he was surprised to see Laura’s short hair. Laura opened her hands. There was a golden watch chain(金表链) in her hands. "Merry Christmas!" said Laura. John said "Merry Christmas!" too and passed his wife a little box with tears in his eyes. |
