　　Many people have, to work on the weekend．Some people do not mind．Other people think it is terrible．One man thinks that working on the weekend can be dangerous．He is John Brown．Mr．Brown works in an office in New York．

　　On Saturday, May 24, 1986, he went to the office to do some work．When he got in the elevator to go home, it stopped between floors．Mr．Brown could not get out of the elevator．He was trapped(困住)!He started to shout, but nobody heard him．Then Mr．Brown remembered that it was a holiday in America．Nobody was going to come to work until Tuesday!There was nothing for Mr．Brown to do．

　　He had to wait until one of his coworkers(同事-)came to work and found him．With nothing to eat or-drink, Mr．Brown ended up sleeping for most of the time．

　　Early on Tuesday morning, the president of the company came into work and found the elevator was not working．When the elevator was opened, Mr．Brown came out cold, weak, and tired．He had been in the elevator for sixty-two hours!

　　Now Mr．Brown says,“I only use elevators if they have telephones in them．”
