单选题
Jackson was working a long way from home. He wanted
to send a letter to his wife, but he could neither read nor write, and he had to
work all day, so he could only look for somebody to write his letter late at
night. At last he found the house of a letter-writer. His name was Colin. Colin
was already in bed. "It is late," he said. "What do you want?" "I want you to
write a letter to my wife," said Jackson. Colin was not pleased. He thought for
a few seconds and then said, "Has the letter got to go far?" "What does that
matter?" answered Jackson. "Well, my writing is so strange that only I can read
it, and if I have to travel a long way to read your letter to your wife, it will
cost you a lot of money." Jackson went away quickly.
