Mark Twain, the famous American writer, was traveling in France. Once he was going to Dijon by train. That afternoon he was very tired and wanted to sleep. Therefore(因此) he asked the conductor to wake him up when they got to Dijon. And he explained that he was a very heavy sleeper. "I'll probably protest loudly when you try to wake me up," he said to the conductor, "But do not take any notice, just put me off the train anyway."
Then Mark Twain went to sleep. Later, when he woke up, it was night and the train was in Paris already. He realized at once that the conductor had forgotten to wake him up at Dijon. He was very angry. He ran up to conductor and began to shout at him," I have never been so angry in all my life," Mark Twain said.
The conductor looked at him calmly and said," You are not half so angry as the American I put off the train at Dijon."
