George didn't want to recall(回忆起)one of his trips a few months ago. He had two sets of meetings to go to over two days. The first set of meetings was in Birmingham. About half way there, he stopped at a roadside restaurant to get some breakfast. He ordered a hamburger and a cup of coffee. But as he was drinking his coffee, he carelessly dropped some down the front of his shirt. He went to the washroom to clean it off, but the stain(污渍)was still there. He didn't have time to stop at a shop to get a new shirt, so he just had to go to the meetings in the dirty one.
The meetings went well. After lunch, George drove up to Manchester for the next set of meetings. But after he drove for 30 minutes, the car suddenly stopped. He had run out of the petrol(汽油).Luckily, there was a petrol station about 100 meters away.
George finally got to Manchester and found his hotel. The following day, he went to two meetings and then had lunch. In the afternoon, he went to three more meetings, which all went well. Later, that evening, he met up with some friends in the city center, and they went to a music pub. He put his bag beside the chair where he was sitting and he didn't pay much attention to it. Anyway, when it was time to go, the bag was missing. Someone had stolen it.
