Question

13．We spent a day in the country，picking wild flowers．Our car looked like a flower shop inside!On the way home we had to stop at traffic lights，and then my wife noticed the cupboard．It was tall and narrow，and it stood outside a furniture shop．"Buy it，"she said at once"We'll carry it home on the roof rack （行李架）．I've always wanted one like that．"What could I do？Ten minutes later I was $20 poorer，and the cupboard was tied on to the roof rack．The police even stopped traffic to let us through．Carrying furniture was a good idea．
After a time my wife said，"There are a line of cars behind．Why don't they overtake（超车），I wonder？"
In fact a police car did overtake．The two officers inside looked at us seriously as they passed．But then with great kindness，they led us through the rush-hour traffic．The police car stopped at our village church．One of the officers came to me．
I was puzzled．"Thanks，officer，"I said．"You've been very kind．I live just down the road．"
He was staring at our load：first at the flowers，then at the cupboard．"Well，well，"he said，laughing，"It's a cupboard you've got here!We thought it was…er，something else．"
My wife began to laugh．Then the truth hit me like a stone between the eyes．I smiled at the officer．"Yes，it's a cupboard，but thanks again．"I drove home as fast as I could．
