Harry1 is eighteen now. He studies in a middle school. His parents like him very much and hope2 he can become a famous3 man. So they often tell him to study hard and they do all for him. They call him at six in the morning, after breakfast his father takes him to school in a car and in the afternoon, as4 soon as the young man comes back, the supper is ready. Of course5, he never washes his clothes or goes to buy something in the shops.
 
Once Harry's father was6 sent to London on business7. He would8 stay there for half a year. Leaving, he told his wife9 to take good care10 of their son. The woman had11 to get up earlier and did12 all what her husband13 did before. And two months later14 she was so tired that she was ill in bed. Now the young man got15 into trouble16. He couldn't do any housework. He had to do as his mother told him. Even17 he didn't know where to get on the bus!
 
Yesterday Harry's mother found18 his shoes were worn19 out and told him to buy a new pair in the shop. But he didn't know how to choose. The woman had a sign and gave20 him a shoe pattern21 and told him to buy a pair of shoes himself22. It's Saturday today and Harry doesn't go to school. With a policeman's help, he found a shop. The shopkeeper23 was friendly24 to him. The man brought25 a lot of shoes and asked him to choose. When he was trying on a pair, suddenly26 he remembered something and took27 them off28. The man surprised29 and asked, "What's the matter, young man?"
 
"I am sorry, I've left the shoes pattern at home!"
