店主很高興地給湯姆看了一輛，湯姆仔細地檢查了一下，對店主說：“這輛車沒有車燈，可是你們廣告上有車燈。”
"Yes, sir," answered the shopkeeper, "but the lamp isn't included in the price of the bicycle. It'san extra."
“是的，先生。”店主回答，“可是車燈不包括在自行車的價錢裏。那是另外算錢的。”
"Not included in the price of the bicycle?" Tom said angrily. "But that's not honest. If the lamp isin the advertisement, it should have been included in the price you gave there."
“不包括在車子的價錢裏?”湯姆生氣地問，“真是騙人。如果廣告上有車燈，那麼就應該包括在價錢裏。”
"Well, sir," answered the shopkeeper calmly, "there is a girl on the bicycle in our advertisement,but we don't supply one of them with the bicycle either."
“哦，先生。”店主平靜地回答，“我們的廣告裏，車子上還有個女孩，可是我們也不提供女孩啊!”
