三本书

I once wanted to buy a called Wives and Daughters by Mrs. GASkell.It's a very good nineteenth-century novel.I went to three good bookshops in London.NO,they said,they hadn't seen it for years.But they said they would look for one for me.Three months later I had postcards from all three shops;each of them had found a copy.So I had to buy three copies of Wives and Daughters.

我曾经想买加斯克尔的《锦绣佳人》。这是19世纪的一本精彩小说。我去了伦敦三个很不错的书店。没有，我们说，他们很多年没有见过这本书了。但是他们说他们可以帮我找。三个月之后，我收到全部这三家书店的明信片;他们三家书店都找到一个副本。所以我不能不买三本《锦绣佳人》的副本。
