(单词翻译:双击或拖选)

One day when women's dresses were on sale at the FarEast Department Store, a dignified¹ middle-aged² man decided³ to get his wife a piece. But he soon found himself being battered⁴（连续猛击，磨损） by frantic⁵（狂乱的，疯狂的） women.

He stood it as long as he could; then, with head lowered and arms flailing⁶（打，用连枷打） , he plowed⁷ through the crowed.

"You there!" challenged a thrill voice. "Can't you act like a gentleman?"

"Listen," he said, "I have been acting⁸ like a gentleman for an hour. From now on, I am acting like a lady."
