Sigmund Freud was a world-famous doctor of Vienna（维也纳）.

He was also a man full of humour（幽默）. Once, at his 70th

birthday party, a friend asked Freud if he could put his work into

several words. “Well,” said Freud, “we take the sick out of their

trouble and return them to the common suffering.”

As a devoted（忠实的）son, Freud often visited his old mother. His

mother usually spent her summers in a small mountain town in

Austria（奥地利）. The King Josef usually spent his summers there,

too. One day in the summer, a band（乐队）was playing a lively

tune（曲子）when Freud’s mother was sitting at the window and

watching the people singing and dancing on Main Street. The old

初中英语

woman had a poor memory. She heard the band playing, but

forgot it was the King’s birthday. Freud was visiting his mother

on her 95th birthday. He told his mother, “Mama, the band is

playing for your birthday.” She believed him and had a

wonderful day.
