A SAD STORY
Three men came to New York for a holiday. They came to a very large hotel
and took a room there. Their room was on the forty-fifth floor. In the evening, the
three men went to the theatre and came back to the hotel very late. I am very sorry ,
said the clerk of the hotel, but our lifts do not work tonight. If you do not want to
walk up to yours room, we shall make beds for you in the hall . No, no , said one
of the three men, no, thank you. We dont want to sleep in the hall. We shall walk up
to our room . Then, he turned to his two friends and said: It is not easy to walk up
to the forty-fifth floor, but I think I know how to make it easier. On our way to the
room I shall tell you some jokes, then you, John, will sing us some songs, then you,
Peter, will tell us some interesting stories . So, they began to walk up to their room.
Tom told them many jokes, John sang some songs. In the end they came to the thirty-
fourth floor. They were tired and decided to have a rest. Now , said Tom, it is
your turn Peter. After all these jokes, we heard on our way here tell us a long and
interesting story with a sad ending . Peter said: I shall tell you a story which is not
long but sad enough. We left the key to our room in the hall .
