Three American students came for their holidays to New York. They stayed at a hotel, in a room on the 54-th floor. They spent the whole day in the city. Late at night they came back to the hotel. The clerk in the hall said to them: “I’m sorry but the lifts don’t work now. Will you wait till the lifts begin to work or will you go on foot upstairs?”
“That’s all right,” said Tom, “we’ll go on foot. But we’ll have a short rest, John will sing a song when we come to the 15th floor. As soon as we come to the 30th floor I will tell a funny story. As soon as we come to the 45th floor Jack will tell a long sad story.” So they started.
On the 15th floor John sang a funny song and the young men gaily continued their way.
On the 30th floor Tom told his friends a funny story, they laughed and continued their way.
On the 45th floor the young men were tired, they wanted to take a long rest. It was Jack’s turn to tell his long sad story.
“Well, boys,” said he, “my story won’t be long, but it will be really sad. The key to our room is downstairs in the hall. When we came to the hotel we forgot to take it.”
... John sang a funny song and the young men gaily continued their way.
