do you know my work？
one night a hotel caught fire， and the people who were staying in it ran out in their night clothes．
two men stood outside and looked at the fire．
“before i came out，” said one，“i ran into some of the rooms and found a lot of money． people don't think of money when they're afraid． when anyone leaves paper money in a fire， the fire burns it． so i took all the bills that i could find．no one will be poorer because i took them．”
“you don't know my work，” said the other．

“what is your work？”
“i'm a policeman．
“oh！” cried the first man． he thought quickly and said，“and do you know my work？”“no，”said the policeman．
“i'm a writer． i'm always telling stories about things that never happened．”

你知道我是干什么的吗？
一天晚上，一家旅馆失火，住在这家旅馆里的人穿着睡 衣就跑了出来。
两个人站在外面，看着大火。
“在我出来之前，”其中一个说：“我跑进一些房间，找到了一大笔钱。人在恐惧中是不会想到钱的。如果有人把纸币留在火里，火就会把它烧成灰烬。所以我把我所能找到的钞票都拿走了。没有人会因为我拿走它们而变得更穷。”
“你不知道我是干什么的。”另一个说。
“你是干什么的？”
“我是警察。”
“噢！”第一个人喊了一声。他灵机一动，说：“那你知道我是干什么的？”“不知道。”警察说。
“我是个作家。我总是爱编一些从未发生过的故事。”
