A Shoe Pattern

　　Harry is eighteen years old now. He studies in a middle school. His parents like him very much and hope he can become a famous mall. So they tell him to study hard and they do all for him. They call him at six in the morning. After breakfast his father takes him to school in a car and in the afternoon, as soon as the young man comes back, the supper is ready. Of course, he never washes his clothes or goes to buy something in the shops.

　　Once Harry’s father was sent to London on bussiness. He would stay there for half a year. Before leaving, he told his wife to take good care of their son. The woman had to get up earlier and did all what her husband did before. And two months later she was so tired that she was ill in bed. Now the young man got into trouble. He couldn’t do any housework. He had to do as his mother told him. Even he didn’t know where to get on the bus!

　　Yesterday Harry’s mother found his shoes were worn out and told him to buy a new pair in the shop. But he didn’t know how to choose. The woman had a sigh and gave him a shoe pattern(鞋样)and told him to buy a pair of shoes him. self. It’s Saturday today and Harry doesn’t go to school. With a policeman’s help. he found a shop. The shopkeeper was friendly to him. The man brought a lot of shoes and asked him to choose. When he was trying on a pair, suddenly he remembered something and took them off.
