      The nervous-looking (紧张不安地) young man had waited for a few moments outside the jeweler's shop

before he got enough courage (勇气) to enter. He was warmly greeted by a young assistant. James felt a rush

blood to his face as he explained he would bring in his future wife to choose a birthday present. The assistant

listened carefully and told him he'd better buy a necklace. He wasn't used to buying jewelry and was a little

worried about overspending. After some discussion as to reasonable price and type, the assistant showed him

dozens of necklaces and helped him to choose. At last James chose one and left the shop promising to return

at five o'clock. When, half an hour later, James did return to the shop with his future wife, Laura, the assistant

acted as if she had never seen him before. When she was asked to show them some necklaces, she first

brought out some inexpensive ones for them to choose and then gave them the one she had prepared. A choice

was soon made and they went away, satisfied. James would certainly come back to buy what he wanted when

he got married.
