Lester was walking in the street with two big and heavy boxes. A stranger walked up to him and asked, “What is the time?”
Lester stopped, put down the boxes and looked at his watch. “It’s five fifteen,” he said. “Hey, what a nice watch!” said the stranger. Lester smiled a little and said, “Yes, it’s not bad. Look at this.” Then he showed the stranger the time for 86 big cities in the world.
He hit a few buttons（按钮）and it told the time in Chinese. Lester went on ,“ You can set（设置）it in English, Chinese, Japanese and so on.”
The stranger looked very interested in the watch.
“That’s not all,” said Lester. He then pushed a few more buttons and there was a small map appeared on the watch. “The map can show where we are,” said Lester.
“I want to buy this watch!” said the stranger.
“Oh, no, I’ m not selling it. I designed it myself. I spent nearly two years making it.” said Lester.
“Oh, you are the designer. I’ll give you $ 1,000 for it!” “Oh, no, I spent more than that.”
“I’ll give you $ 5,000 for it!” Lester stopped to think. The stranger quickly gave him a check（支票）and said ,“$ 5,000 . Here it is.”
