Bags of Cans
罐头
He lived in a one-bedroom apartment. He had lived there for a long time. He usually went out on Sunday only. He took the bus to church. He took the bus to the supermarket. He bought only canned food. He bought canned tuna. He bought canned chicken. He bought canned vegetables. After shopping, he took the bus home. He watched TV every day, all day long. He threw his trash into plastic bags. His apartment was full of plastic bags. The plastic bags were full of empty cans. His son visited him occasionally. "Dad," he said, "you have to throw out all these bags. They're a health hazard. You might get a disease. You might attract roaches. They're a safety hazard. You might trip and fall down." His dad told him not to worry. "I throw all these bags out as soon as they start to smell," he said.
他住在一居室的楼房里。他已经住在这里很长时间了。他只有周日才会出来。他坐巴士去了教堂。他坐车去了超市。他只买罐头食物。他买了金枪鱼罐头。还买了鸡肉罐头。买了蔬菜罐头。购物之后,他坐车回了家。他每天都看电视,一看就是一天。他把垃圾放到垃圾袋中。他的房间充满了垃圾袋。垃圾袋中全是空罐头。他的儿子偶尔回来看他。他说:“爸爸,你必须把袋子全都拿出去。它们会影响健康。你会生病的。这会招蟑螂。它们还有安全隐患。你也许会被绊倒,摔跤。”他的爸爸告诉他不要担心。他说:“等它们一变味我就扔出去。”
