The umbrella 雨伞

A gentleman staying in a hotel left his umbrella in the hall, but he had put on the handle a card on which was written: "This umbrella belongs to a gentleman who can lift up a hundred pounds. I shall be back in ten minutes." When he came back, he found, instead of his umbrella, another card on which was written,"This card belongs to a man who can run ten miles an hour. I shall not come back."
 
一位住在旅馆的绅士把他的雨伞放在了大厅里,不过他在伞柄上系了一张卡片,上面写道,“此伞属于一位能举百磅的绅士。我将在十分钟内回来。”当他回来时,发现雨伞已经不翼而飞,取而代之的是另一张卡片,上面写着:“此卡是一位一小时能跑十英里的人留下的,我将永远不回来了。”
