Father’s Things父亲的东西

When Peter is 17， he is as tall as his father. So he begins to borrow his fathers clothes when he wants to go out with his friends in the evening. Father doesnt like this. And he always gets very angry when he finds his son wearing any of his things.

One evening when Peter is about to go out， his father stops him in the living room. He looks at Peters clothes very carefully. Then he says angrily， “Isnt that one of my ties， Peter？”

“Yes， Father， it is，” answers Peter.

“And that shirt is mine， too.”

“Yes， thats yours， too.” answers Peter.

“And youre wearing my belt！”

“Yes， I am， Father，” answers Peter， “You dont want your trousers to fall down， do you？”

皮特17歲的时候，长得和父亲一样高。于是，当他晚上想和朋友一起出去时，他就开始借父亲的衣服穿。可是父亲不喜欢这样。当他发现他的儿子穿他的衣服时，总是非常生气。

一天晚上，在皮特准备出门时，父亲在客厅里拦住了他。父亲细细打量着皮特的穿着，然后气呼呼地说：“皮特，那不是我的领带吗？”

皮特回答说：“是的，父亲，是您的领带。”

“还有那件衬衫也是我的。”

“是的，衬衫也是您的。”皮特回答。

“你还系我的皮带。”

“是的，我是系的您的皮带，父亲。”皮特回答说，“您不愿意让您的裤子掉下来吧？”
