(单词翻译:单击)

There were these 3 criminals who had just robbed a bank in Egypt. They were caught, convicted1, and sentenced to exile2 in the Sahara Desert and they could each take only one thing. When they met in the desert they each were telling what they had brought.

"I brought a loaf of bread, so when I get hungry, I'll have something to eat," said the first criminal.

"I brought a water skin, so that when I get thirsty, I'll have something to drink," said the second.

"I brought a car door, so that when it gets hot I can roll down the window."
