　　I always have difficulty in buying birthday present. My idea never seems to go father than ties, pens or cards. But, strangely enough, it did not take me long to decide on Tom’s birthday present. For the first time in life, I had a good idea…I would buy him a bottle of champagne (香檳酒). Before the party began, Tom suggested that I should open the bottle. I put it between my knees and began to pull, but it remained unmoved. Soon a lot of people gathered round to watch the fight between me and the bottle. I could hear all kinds of “helpful” suggestions from them like “Break the top off”, “Use your teeth”, etc. But I was losing the fight. We were fighting on the floor together, when all of a sudden there was a loud “pop” and the cork(塞子) shout up into the air, while the angry bottle showered(淋) everybody with champagne.
