【明報專訊】Edna is extremely unhappy — and I don't blame her! Her husband has come home late, and he's been drinking! "That's it! This will not do!" Edna exclaimed. "If you have any regard for me, you must agree to sign the pledge!" To make a long story short, Edna's husband apologised, bought her a new dress or two, and he signed the pledge. He didn't actually put his name to a document, though, because when one signs the pledge, he or she promises to abstain from (戒絕) drinking any more alcohol ever.
