The LunchAt the restaurant I cou

The LunchAt the restaurant I could see my jewellery was attracting attention.The smartly-dressed gentlemen were staring until their wives nudged them and warned them to stop gawking（发呆地看着）and behave.　　All I did to attract such attention was spread my fingers and twiddle with my showy earrings.1 wasn’t wearing rubbish.My rings were crafted with the finest gold and priceless stones from around the world.Bert，my boyfriend had said that my tiara（冕状头饰）was ostentatious（显眼的），so，not wanting to appear to have bad taste，I decided to wear my hat instead.　　I got chummy with（与……关系亲密） my neighbour.We were rather alike，a little bit overweight，wearing similar clothes，with the only difference being that mine were real clothes with a capital C.　　My new friend got tipsy（微醉的）over her cocktails，and told me that her name was Ruby.　　“But you can call me Rube，”she simpered（傻笑着说）from the other side of the table.　　The restaurant was all chandeliers（枝形大吊灯），white tablecloths and silver.And the young waiters were all dressed to the nines，looking as though they were about to perform in a stage show.　　Neither Rube nor l were married and we soon became very friendly.　　“You can call me Pearl，”I said.1 asked Rube how she managed to afford to dine out at this swanky place.She said she had won the lunch in a radio competition.　　“Me too,” I replied, and both of us laughed our heads off.　　Rube was wearing cheap，gaudy jewellery, which probably came from a market. You wouldn’t see me in that junk.　　But by now Rube had drunk far too much sherry.She kept on asking me if she could just try on some of my jewellery，but throughout life l have learnt to never trust anybody.　　Still，by now Rube wasn’t really a stranger and I didn’t want to be seen as mean-spirited（吝啬）in such a posh（豪华的）restaurant.　　We had to go to the ladies room.Gold taps and all that.　　It looked so grand that when Rube asked me again if she could try my jewels on just for a minute，l offered her the pendant（耳环，垂饰）.　　That’s me，generous and kind.That pendant was worth a fortune.You should have seen her face.　　She primped and preened（打扮） in the mirror admiring the pendant，but she just wasn’t satisfied.　　“Just let me try on the rings,”she pleaded.“And the bracelets.”　　I was worried that she might not get the rings off her chunky fingers，but I reluctantly handed them over.　　So there she was with a stunning ring on each finger. To please her, I tried on her rubbish jewellery.　　At this stage we were both tipsy, and it was time to say enough was enough.　　All of a sudden，two policewomen burst into the ladies room and slapped a set of handcuffs around Rube’s beautifully-adorned wrists.　　The policewomen then escorted（押送）poor Rube out of the ladies，despite her loud，tearful protests that she never knew nothing about no armed hold-up（武装抢劫）at the bank vaults（地下保险库）.She’d never pinched a thing in her life.Never!　　Poor Rube.It was a shame because Bert would have to organize another heist（偷窃）before I could get hold of that sort of stuff again.　　Just the same，some people are unfortunate，aren’t they?2.
