　　When Mary was fourteen, her mother gave her a beautiful ring．It was a birthday present, and Mary was very pleased．But a week later, she was very sad, because when she was working in the kitchen, she lost the ring．She looked everywhere, but she couldn’t find it．She even looked in the drain outside the kitchen, but the ring was not there．

　　That evening her brother Tom was eating some cakes．“Who made these cakes?” he said,“They are excellent．”

　　“I made them,”Mary said．She was pleased that her brother liked them．Mary liked cooking very much．

　　“Are there any?”Tom started to ask．Then he stopped suddenly．He opened his mouth and took a ring out．“Where did this come from?”he asked．“This is a strange type of cake!”

　　Mary was pleased．“My ring!”she said, she took it to the kitchen．She washed it and then went back and thanked her brother．

　　“I’m sorry you had a surprise,” she said, but thank you very much for finding my ring．I’ll cook some more cakes for you tomorrow as a reward．

　　Ten minutes later, the telephone rang．“I'm so happy to hear your voice．Where are you?．．．I'm happy that you called．No, don't take the taxi．Stay at the door of the theatre with Maggie．I'll come and drive you and Maggie home．Don't worry．I'll be there in about ten minutes．” Mrs．Kao took the car key and went out．
