The meeting lasted for three hours.Mr.Jackson looked at the clock on the wall.It was a quarter to eight."The last bus left fifteen minutes ago,"thought the man."It means I'll have to stay in a hotel tonight."
The man usually drove home after work.He and his wife lived outside the city.It was about an hour's drive from his house to the office.But something was wrong with his car two days ago.He had to take a bus to his office.They discussed something important that afternoon and he couldn't catch the bus.
At last the meeting was over.It began to snow after he came out of the warm office.He wanted to have some hot soup first.Most big restaurants were crowded with people,so he went into a small one.The waiter came up quickly and showed the menu to him."Bring me some hot soup first,"said Mr Jackson.About twenty minutes later a young man brought the soup to him.But he found something in it."Come here,boy."he called out."Look!There's a grey hair in my soup!"
"It's very unusual,sir,"said the waiter."It's usually a fly.Oh,I remember.Flies are sleeping in winter."
