Question

A driver stopped his car on a street side to have a rest. When he sat in the seat and closed his eyes, a pedestrian (行人) came up and knocked at his window to ask the time. The driver opened his eyes and looked at his watch, “It is 8 o’clock.” He said. Then he went to sleep again. But soon he woke up because a second pedestrian was knocking at the window, “Sir, do you have the time?” he asked. The driver looked at his watch again and told the man it was 8:30.

If it happened again, he could not have a good rest. So he wrote a short note and put it on the window for all the people to see. It said, “I don’t have the time.”

Again the man sat in the seat and slept. A few minutes later a third pedestrian came along and began knocking at the window. “Hey, sir,” she said, “It’s 8:45.”
