B
Mr. Green works in an office. He is very busy and has no time to have a good rest. Every evening, when he comes back home from his office, he’s always tired and wants to go to bed early. But his wife often has a lot of interesting things to tell him after dinner. She doesn’t stop talking until she falls asleep.
One day, the man felt terrible and couldn’t go to work. He decided to go to see a doctor. And Mrs Green went to the hospital with him. Before her husband said what was the matter with him, the woman told the doctor all and then the doctor understood Mr. Green’s trouble. He wrote out a prescription and said to her, “This bottle of medicine is for your husband and the pills are for you.”
“For me?” the woman said in surprise, “I’m fine. I don’t need any medicine!”
“I don’t think so, madam,” said the doctor, “They are sleeping pills. Your husband will soon be all right if you take them.”
