I have just moved to a house in Bridge Street. Yesterday a beggar knocked at my door. 我刚刚搬进了大桥街的一所房子。昨天一个乞丐来敲我的门，
He asked me for a meal and a glass of beer. In return for this, the beggar stood on his head and sang songs. 他向我要一顿饭和一杯啤酒。作为回报，那乞丐头顶地倒立起来，嘴里还唱着歌。
I gave him a meal. He ate the food and drank the beer. Then he put a piece of cheese in his pocket and went away. 我给了他一顿饭。他把食物吃完，又喝了酒。然后把一块乳酪装进衣袋里走了。
Later a neighbour told me about him. Everybody knows him. His name is Percy Buttons.后来，一位邻居告诉了我他的情况。大家都认识他，他叫珀西.巴顿斯。
He calls at every house in the street once a month and always asks for a meal and a glass of beer. 他每月对这条街上的每户人家光顾一次，总是请求给他一顿饭和一杯啤酒。
