ing-bottom: 68.65%;">

Mr. Brown came to an inn on a very cold day, and could get no room near the fire.
在一個寒冷的冬日， 布朗先生來到一家小客棧，發現火爐旁邊已經沒有空位了。
He called to the hostler to fetch a peck of oysters, and give them to his horse.
於是，他讓旅店的馬伕去拿些牡蠣來喂他的馬。
"Will your horse eat oysters?" said the hostler.
“您的馬吃牡蠣嗎？”馬伕問道。
"Try him, " said Mr. Brown.
“你試着喂喂吧。”布朗先生回答。
Immediately the people ran to see this wonder, and Mr. Brown who alone remained in the room, chose the best seat by the fire and made himself comfortable. 　
頃刻間，人們都跑去看這一奇觀，而布朗先生卻獨自呆在屋裏，他在火爐旁找了個最好的座位，舒舒服服地坐在那取暖了。
