A Very Polite Policeman

There was a man who repaired typewriters,

and one day he was called into a building to

do a repair. So he went there, but when he

looked for a parking space, he couldn't find one.

In the big city sometimes it's  difficult to find a

parking space. So he parked in a no parking

zone and put a note on the windshield of his

car that said, "I'm Joseph Goldsmith,

working inside the building" to let the police

know that he had to do some work. So when

he finished repairing the typewriter, he came

out and saw another note next to his note that

said, "I'm Jeremy Flagler, police officer,

working outside the building."

With the note was a ticket.

　　有一个人从事打字机修理的工作。有一天，

有人请他到一栋大楼修理打字机，可是他到了

那里，却找不到停车位。在大城市里，有时候

很难找到停车位。他只好把车停在禁止停车的

地方，然後在车子的挡风玻璃上夹一张字条，

上面写着：「我是约塞夫．哥尔德史密斯，正

在大楼里工作。」他想让警察知道他是工作所

需、情非得已的。当他修好打字机，走出大楼，

却看到原先的字条旁边有另一张字条，上面写着：

「我是警察杰瑞米．弗列格勒，正在大楼外面工作！」

字条旁边附着一张罚单。
