On a weekend, a woman won a big bag of coins at a game machine. She took a break for dinner with her husband in the hotel dining room. But first she wanted to put the coins in her room.
“I’ll be right back and we’ll go to eat,” she told her husband. Then she carried the bag to the lift. As she was about to walk into the lift she noticed two men already aboard.
Both were huge, very huge figures. The woman was scared. Her first thought was: “These two are going to rob me.” Her next thought was: “Don’t be afraid. They look like nice gentlemen.”
But fear seized her. She stood and stared at the two men. She felt anxious and ashamed. She hoped they didn’t read her mind. Surely they knew her hesitation about joining them in the lift. It was all too obvious. Her face was red. She couldn’t just stand there, so with an effort of will she picked up one foot and stepped forward and followed with the other foot and was on the lift. Avoiding eye contact, she turned around and faced the lift doors as they closed.
A second passed, and then another second, and then another. Her fear increased! The lift didn’t move. Panic consumed her. “Oh dear,” she thought, “I’m about to be robbed!”
Her heart sank and sweat poured. Then one of the men said, “Hit the floor.” Instinct (本能) told her: Do what they tell you. The bag of coins flew upwards as she threw out her arms and collapsed on the lift carpet. A shower of coins rained down on her. “Take my money and spare me,” she prayed. More seconds passed.
She heard one of the men say politely, “Madam, if you’ll just tell us what floor you’re going to, we’ll push the button.” The one who said it had a little trouble getting the words out. He couldn’t help laughing.
Para. 1:She lifted her head and looked up at the two men.
