Al Smith was governor of New York State. He was a famous man． He was born very poor on the East Side of New York City． He had little education． He worked very hard and won great success．
One day， as governor， he was visiting the state prison at Sing Sing． Sing Sing is one of the largest prisons in the United States． The head of the prison asked Mr． Smith to say some thing to the prisoners． Mr． Smith had never spoken to thiskind of audience before．He did not know how to begin．
Finally, he said, "My fellow citizens...." Then he re mem bered that when a man goes to prison he is no longer a cit izen． He began again．"My fellow prisoners...." That did not sound right, so he said: "Well, anyway, I'm glad to see so many of you here today."

阿爾·史密斯是紐約州的州長。他是個名人。他出生在 紐約市東部的一個窮苦家庭。他讀書不多，但是他工作勤奮， 終于獲得了很大的成就。
有一天，作為州長，他訪問星星州立監獄。星星監獄是全美國最大的監獄之一。監獄長請史密斯對囚犯們說幾句話。史密斯先生以前從來沒有對這一類聽眾講過話，他不知道該怎樣開口。
最后，他說：“我親愛的公民們……”接著他想起一個人蹲進監獄就不再是公民了。他重新開始：“我親愛的囚犯們……”那聽起來也不對勁兒，于是他說：“噢，無論如何，今天在這兒見到你們這么多人，真是太高興了。”
