Question

    “You have to take care of the baby today,” a woman  tells her husband, “I'm not feeling well .” “Then you must have a good rest, dear,” Her husband says, “I'm glad to look after our baby.” “Thank you. I’ll have a quiet day,” she says. “Shall I go shopping for you too?” He asks. She is very happy and says, “That will help me a lot.” She writes the shopping list and gives it to him. “You can get all these things in the supermarket. You can put the baby in the shopping cart so you don't have to leave him outside.”

The man does what his wife says. At first, everything goes well.         then the baby begins to cry. He cries harder and harder. “Keep calm( 镇 静 的 ), George,” the man says,“Don't shout! George. Don't get mad, George.”

A woman in the supermarket hears him saying these things. She walks up to him. “I think you're wonderful,” she says, “you are so patient（有耐心的）with your little George.”

“Madam,” the man says, “I'm George. He is Edward.”
