Dick and Robert studied in the same class four years ago. Dick liked all kinds of beautiful clothes and spent a lot of money on them. His father was a worker and he had a big family. Of course,he didn't have enough money to give to his son. Dick had to borrow some money from his friends. At first they lent some to him,but he never gave back any to them. And later nobody believed him. Now the two young men work in the same factory,but they are indifferent shops. And Robert never has any dealing with him.
One day Dick went to a shop to buy something. He found a few beautiful coats there. He loved them very much,but he didn't have enough money. The shopkeeper told him they had only two coats ________ and at that moment a woman bought one for her husband. Dick looked around and he knew nobody there. Just then he saw Robert come in. He hurried to him and said,“Excuse me,Robert. Can you lend one hundred pounds to me,please?”
“Oh,sorry,I can't,”answered Robert.
“I'm sure you know me.”
“Yes,”said Robert. “Just because I know you!”
