I’m Deaf

On a train from London to Paris, a young man was sitting face to face with an old lady beside the window. The young man was chewing gum (), looking out of the window or looking at the old woman from time to time. After a while, when the young man looked at the old lady again, she said, “Young man, you’d better not talk to me. You see. I’m deaf. You talked so much just now, I’m very sorry but I heard nothing.”
