第一幕，第三场
旁白：1903年的夏天，一对年老又富有的兄弟， 罗德里克和奥利弗，打了一个赌。奥利弗认为， 一个人靠一张百万英镑的钞票在伦敦能活一个月 他的兄弟罗德里克对此表示怀疑。这时，他们看 见一个身无分文的年轻人在他们的房子外面的人 行道上游荡。他叫亨利，亚当斯，一个美国商人 在伦敦迷了路，不知道该怎么办。
罗德里克：年轻人，请你进来一会，好吗？ 亨利：先生，你叫谁啊？是叫我吗？
罗德里克：是的，就是你。
奥利弗：从你左侧的前门进来。 亨利：（仆人给他打开门）谢谢。仆人：早上好，先生，请进。先生，请让 我来带路吧。
奥利弗：（亨利走进来）谢谢你，詹姆斯，
没你的事情了。
罗德里克：你好，先生，你贵姓？ 亨利：亚当斯，亨利 .亚当斯
奥利弗：来，请坐，亚当斯先生。
亨利：谢谢
罗德里克：你是美国人？ 亨利：是的，从旧金山来。
罗德里克：你对伦敦熟悉吗？
亨利：一点也不熟悉，这是我第一次来伦敦罗德里克：亚当斯先生，不知道你是否介 意我们问几个问题？
亨利：不介意，请问吧。
罗德里克：可不可以问问，你在这个国家 要干点儿什么？你的计划又是什么呢？ 亨利：嗯，谈不上有什么计划，我希望能 找到工作，事实上，我在英国上岸纯属偶 然。
奥利弗：这怎么可能呢？
亨利：嗯，你看，在美国的时候，我有自 己的船。大约1个月前，我开船驶出了海 湾……（他的眼睛盯着座子上两兄弟剩下 的残羹剩饭）奥利弗：往下说啊。
亨利：哦，好的。嗯，傍晚时分我发现我被一阵大风刮 到海上去了。这都是我的错。我不知道能否活到早晨。 第二天早上，我正感到绝望的时候，一艘海船发现了我 奥利弗：正是那艘船把你带到了英国。
亨利：是的。事实上我靠做义工来顶替船费，这就是我 为什么衣冠不整的原因了。我上美国大使馆求助，但
是……（兄弟两相顾而笑）
罗德里克：嗯，这一点你倒不必担心，这还是优点呢。 亨利：对不起，先生，你的话我没有听懂。
罗德里克：耐心点儿，亚当斯先生。如果你不介意，我 能不能问问，你手头上有多少钱？
亨利：嗯，老实说，我一分钱都没有了。
奥利弗：（高心地）老兄，真走运！真有运气！（鼓起 掌来）亨利：嗯，这对你们来说可能是运气，但对我来 说可不是。事实上，正好相反。如果你们认为这 是一个笑话，我可不觉得好笑。（亨利起身准备 走）好了，请原谅，我想我该上路了。
罗德里克：亚当斯先生，请别走。你千万不要以 为我们不在意你的感受。奥利弗，把信给他。 奥利弗：是，拿信。（从座上把信拿起来，像送 礼品一样递给亨利）给你信。
亨利：（小心翼翼地接过信）是给我的吗？
罗德里克：是给你的。（亨利要拆信）啊，别拆 你不要拆，现在不是时候，到两点钟你才能打开
亨利：奥，这真可笑。罗德里克：这不可笑，这里边有钱呢。（叫仆人 詹姆斯？
亨利：奥，不，我不需要你们的施舍，我只要一 份老老实实的工作。
罗德里克：我知道你工作是很卖力的，这正是我 们给你这封信的原因。詹姆斯，请送亚当斯先生 出去。
奥利弗：祝你好远，亚当斯先生。
亨利：嗯，怎么不给我讲讲，这究竟是怎么回事 呢？
罗德里克：你很快就会明白的，（看着钟）一个 半小时以后。
仆人：请这边走，先生。
罗德里克：亚当斯先生，两点钟以前不要拆信， 答应吗？
亨利：答应。再见！))))1 F (fact) or O (Opinion)
