One day, Mr Read and his son Robert were going out for a walk. He put on a pair of shoes together with a pair of different socks, one white and one yellow. As he came out of his house, his son noticed the colors of his father’s socks and said, “You’ve put on two different socks, Dad.” When he heard this, he looked at his socks and found that his son was right. He was happy and said to himself, “What a clever son I have got!” Then he asked his son to go back to the house to get another pair of socks for him. When the son went back to his house, all he could find was one white sock and one yellow sock. Robert then took the socks to his father and said, “It’s no use changing. These socks at home are also different, one yellow and one white.” Mr Read agreed with his son and they went out for a walk.

“Oh, thank you Daddy！” he said happily. Then the boy took out some coins. When the father found that the boy already had money, he got angry again.
