It was two weeks before Christmas, and Mrs. Smith was very busy．She bought a lot of Christmas cards to send to her and her husband's friends, and she put them on her table in the living-room．Then, when her husband came home from work she said to him, "Here are the Christmas cards for friends, and here are some stamps, a pen and our book of address（地址）．Will you please write the cards while I'm cooking the dinner?"

     Mr. Smith did not say anything, but walked out of the living-room and went to his study（书房）．Mrs. Smith was very angry with him, but she didn't say anything．In a minute Mr. Smith came back with a box full of Christmas cards．All of them had addresses and stamps on them．Mrs. Smith was surprised．
